Therapeutic Yoga, Stress Management, Trauma Recovery

From 63.73 C$ /h

What makes Yoga more effective for stress reduction than, 20 minutes on the elliptical machine at your gym? It provides a complete system of effective movement for the body. While many forms of exercise can reduce stress, therapeutic Yoga is uniquely suited because of its positive effects on the glands and nerves.
The movements, set in a sequence, directly release the tension built up over time from holding the breath and various muscles in your particular stress response pattern. Even the sweat that arises during the practice is different, because it is a result of a deep glandular experience, not just the body's response to exertion.

Your practice will release tension from the inner organs, nerves, and glands, and create an internal biochemistry of calm, inner balance, and depth of self.
The practices of breath and meditation that come with it, can change old stress response patterns.
To reverse the ill effects of long-term stress, and to increase your capacity to form and maintain healthy stress respone patterns, breath, meditation, and movement are essential.

Hey, I'm manager of yoga instructor Diana. She's from Ukraine, so I'll help with translations and communication.

Hatha yoga - Yoga helps us to strengthen the body from the outside and inside. It helps us to improve our inner state and find balance. It is an opportunity to organize thoughts and focus on the here and now. In addition, yoga strengthens the body and improves mood. It has a positive effect on the flexibility and balance of our body.

What are the benefits of this practice? First of all, it helps to strengthen the human body, build endurance and willpower. This yoga helps to relax and improves the ability to cope with stress. It has a positive effect on blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Due to the diversity of this practice, it improves muscle flexibility. Also, this practice fills the body with energy, boosts immunity and improves your posture.

This practice is suitable for both women and men of all ages. The practice is a bit more complicated than hatha yoga, but it is also suitable for beginners. It is possible to move further in terms of complexity, using more dynamics and increasing the complexity of asanas. Further complication is focused on the use of asanas with deflections and inverted positions. Also, you can smoothly move into Ashtanga yoga or dynamic yoga.

Diana has three years of experience teaching modern dance and yoga individually. She has more than 5 years of teaching experience in groups and dozens of satisfied students. Therefore, she will definitely provide everyone with an individual approach, find the right pace and the necessary asanas.

Sound healing, also known as energy medicine, is recognized as one of the fastest holistic healing techniques, using specific sound vibrations to promote relaxation, balance energy, and support both physical and mental wellness. Techniques such as sound baths, chakra healing, and full body sound healing therapy are used to help address various conditions, including stress, anxiety, pain, and even some chronic diseases.

Sound healing operates on the principle of resonance and vibrational medicine, where specific frequencies interact with the body on a cellular and energetic level to restore harmony. The body, being largely made of water, conducts these vibrations effectively, allowing sound to impact tissues deeply and trigger physiological responses such as endorphin release and pain relief.
Techniques and Applications
Sound Bath: Involves immersion in the soothing vibrations of instruments like singing bowls and gongs, inducing a deep state of relaxation and meditation.

Chakra Healing: Targets the body’s energy centers by using sounds matched to each chakra frequency, aiding in emotional release and energy flow.

Therapy for Diseases: Some studies and practitioners report benefits of sound healing for conditions like high blood pressure, insomnia, chronic pain, anxiety, PTSD, and even support through cancer and behavioral disorders.

Full Body Healing: Promotes overall wellness by balancing mental, physical, and spiritual health, leaving individuals feeling refreshed and at peace.

Benefits of Sound Healing
Reduces stress, anxiety, tension, and fatigue.

Improves mental clarity, emotional well-being, and sleep quality.

Enhances blood circulation, lowers blood pressure, and supports natural healing.

Balances chakras, promotes deep relaxation, and fosters a spiritual sense of connection.

Sound healing is generally considered safe for most people, but those with certain sound sensitivities, epilepsy, or pregnancy should consult with practitioners before sessions.

I offer a unique combination of Booty techniques such as Twerk, Wine, Jiggle or Shake as well as flexibility training, to help you achieve confidence in your dance. My teaching combines technique training, body awareness and mobility to help students perform dance movements with control, rhythm and expression. I work with a mix of explanation, demonstration and practical exercises so that movements can be built step by step and truly understood.

A typical session begins with a warm-up and mobility exercises, followed by technique training for hip movements like Twerk, Wine, Jiggle or Shake. We then practice variations and combinations to develop rhythm, control and expression. I also integrate stretching and mobility exercises to improve flexibility and stability.

Creating a supportive and relaxed learning atmosphere is very important to me.

My classes are definitely suited for beginners as well as dancers who want to improve their hip mobility, body control and sense of rhythm.
