Hi friends,
As many of you know, last year i sold my yoga studio
in Chicago, fell in love, and moved to LA. This has been a pretty bumpy transition for me, and teaching yoga has been on the backburner. For most of this last year, I haven’t worked at all. And there have been many moments where i have wondered what was next for me.
Then, in the last few weeks, I traveled down to Costa
Rica, where I worked with lovely, dedicated students, to teach a yoga workshop that I had planned last year.
And I was reminded, very clearly, that this work, teaching Ashtanga yoga, is my work. It felt great to teach - and now i feel hungry to get back to it. And hungry is not just a metaphor......I need to make some money, it is time to get back on track!
So I wanted to announce to my friends and family – to really say out loud to the universe that I am ready to work, send some my way!
I am happy to work with anyone at any level. I can teach to advanced ashtanga yoga students as well as beginners who are interested in developing a steady yoga practice, and I love to teach meditation, pranayama and to work with people who are battling or recovering from any sort of health issues.
I have taught yoga to students dealing with severe injuries – using one arm or no arms, and I have taught to students who were terminally ill. I have worked with a host of celebrities as well, which everyone keeps telling me is important in LA.
While my main focus is to create private sessions, I am also open to working with small groups. If you have a friend, or 3 or 5 who want to come together to learn this practice in a safe and effective way, I will work with the group.
In addition to yoga sessions, I am also available to do nutritional coaching sessions, working within the framework of raw food nutrition. I have helped people 'redo' their kitchens, I have taught raw food preparation classes on a variety of topics, and I can combine this sort of coaching with yoga and my other skills as an intuitive coach.
Currently, I am living in downtown LA. And, at least right now, I am willing to drive anywhere in the LA area to work. My fee is $100 for a private, running one hour and 15 minutes. And I will work on a sliding scale for anyone in need, who cannot afford my fee. I am also interested in trade, although right now what I need most are groceries (organic produce) and gas – so if you can trade me for some really basic survival stuff, I am open.
At this point in time, creating work is my focus – send me any ideas or possibilities. I find tribe to be an amazing forum for creating community and supporting each other. If you have a friend or a relative who you feel might benefit from my skills, please feel free to forward them my information(ashtangachicago@yahoo.com). I greatly appreciate the support I find here and hope that I can be of service in this community.
peace and love
