About Michelle

Dance, Fitness, Martial Arts, Yoga...

I began my Yoga practice in 1996 in New York City and have studied with world-renowned teachers on both coasts. I have been working with private clients since the mid-1990s on increasing physical awareness and strength, overall wellness and connecting the body, mind and breath. I come to Yoga teaching with a background in modern dance and martial arts, graduating from New York University in 1994. Techniques and bodywork studied: Dance: Ballet, Modern, African, Jazz, Butoh; Alexander Technique, Meditation and Massage. In 1997, I became an American Council on Exercise Certified Personal Fitness Trainer. In 2001, I achieved my first of two Black Belts (Hwa Rang Do and Shotokan Karate) and began teaching Martial Arts in 2002 in Los Angeles. After the birth of my son, I began my Yoga teacher training, becoming 200 hr certified with Yoga Alliance in 2010. In 2011, while pregnant with my daughter, I began teaching Pre-natal Yoga. I currently see clients in their home or in my home studio, privately/semi-privately for 45, 60 or 90-minute sessions.

I believe everyone has more physical and mental potential than they readily realize. My goa is to help you achieve your goals, guiding you one small step at a time, in a safe, supportive and healthy manner

Add'l reviews on Yelp.

I love helping people feel better about themselves physically and mentally. I believe everyone has more power to unlock within themselves. I enjoy making others stronger and becoming closer to who they truly want to be.

After spending six years as a martial arts instructor, my husband and I decided to start a family.  As a pregnant instructor, I thought it wise to not continue teaching martial arts (kicks to the abdomen, leg sweeps, falls to ground?...  maybe not the safest for baby!)  So I turned my attention to my 20-year yoga practice and became certified with Yoga Alliance in 2010.  I fell in love with teaching yoga and empowering people in a nurturing, deep and focused way.

About the lesson

  • All Levels
  • English

All languages in which the lesson is available :

English

I ask questions to find out what my client's goals are, what experience or injuries they've had, and what reservations or concerns there might be.  I assess my client's individual physical abilities: range of motion, alignment, and ease or difficulty of various types of movement.



I have worked with all levels, ages and backgrounds of clients: elderly, injured, pre-natal, children, and advanced (inversions and arm balances).



If you're new to yoga, or an experienced practitioner, we can work together to create a practice that works best for you and where you are in your life right now.



I recently taught a two-hour Inversions Workshop to intermediate level students where at the beginning of the class, I ask everyone's level of fear on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being very little fear and 10 being extremely high fear.  Every single participant went down at least 2 to 3 numbers in fear factor by the end of the two hours, and achieved some type of inverted feat they'd never done before.  Big smiles on every face, elated emotions throughout.
