Join us for an intimate and personalized small group Yoga Therapy workshop in conjunction with Cancer CAREPoint. Practice with others on the cancer continuum (new diagnosis, treatment, survivor) and those with chronic conditions while creating community, restoring the body and easing the mind. Gain tools to reduce stress and maintain your health.
Participants will experience a personalized, small group yoga therapy practice. There will be a brief introduction followed by short, educational presentations. This will be followed by a restorative yoga practice to replenish and restore. Those attending will leave with an understanding of the research evidence behind the yoga as well as simple takeaways that can be used to help ease the mind, as well as the body.
There will be a limit on the total number of participants to allow the instructors to personalize the session to the needs of the individuals in the group. Openings will be filled on a first-come, first served basis.

As a Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT, RYT500) and Ayurvedic Practitioner (CAP), I am passionate about helping people to ease their pain from acute or chronic conditions, manage their stress and maintain their health through the teachings of Yoga and Ayurveda. With specialized trainings in Adaptive as well as Therapeutic Yoga and Stress Management, I meet students where they are and work together with them to come up with a care plan for their immediate needs and long-term goals.
I have worked with clients with conditions ranging from osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal injuries, clients pre- and post-surgery, to individuals with autoimmune pain, rheumatoid arthritis, neuropathy, Parkinson’s Disease, and those in active cancer treatment.
