For those of us who are staying at home, greater safety can be both a privilege and an immobilizing burden. 

Because it is frightening to be vulnerable to this virus, I am offering movement sessions through video to uniquely to support older adults. If you’re interested in this session or in gifting one, please reach out here.

What will your session be like? 

We’ll apply principles from occupational therapy, yoga, and dance to focus on joint mobility, core activation, stamina, and stability – as well as enjoyment and togetherness. Sequences will be catered to your specific needs, which we’ll address in our first session and continue with check-ins thereafter.

Our sessions are 55 minutes, with an additional 10 minutes for technology & props tutoring at the start of our work together. We can meet daily, weekly, or in a rhythm you prefer. At the close of our session, I’ll give clear guidance for practicing on your own.  

 We’ll work together through a video call that you are most comfortable with. I maintain a professional Zoom account, which I find the easiest platform, but I am happy to set up our session through facetime or skype.

 

What is my background?

 I have taught movement practices for 15 years and have developed an expertise in older adults. I’ve taught chair yoga, popular dance, and ballroom classes to elders, and retained personal clients whom I’ve seen through life and body changes. I value evidence-based fall prevention practices and occupational therapy methods to support everyday health. I use commonplace objects as resources, and I am experienced in teaching online. See more here.

 

What about cost?

I offer these expert personal sessions catered to you for a sliding scale of $10 - 15. For those who cannot afford this rate, I will be glad to offer you this session for free. For those who can pay more, my sessions are usually $125/hour, and I welcome you to consider donating beyond $40 if you are able. (You may also consider donating a session to another person!) Payment can be sent by venmo or paypal.
