Experience Yoga Therapy
The education and skills required to work as a yoga therapist surpass those of the average yoga teacher, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of anatomy, physiology and psycho-spirituality from both the eastern and western traditions. Yoga therapy is a highly personalized experience that focuses on your specific condition and needs. It offers a means for safe, personal healing to people living with chronic pain or illness. You can expect a tailored program unique to you that incorporates breath, movement and meditation. Individual yoga therapy is ideal for those with special needs or conditions, who prefer a slower-paced program and a one-on-one setting.

I saw Tamara for an evaluation last June, and she changed my life. Her discovery that I had weak hip adductors and how to strengthen them, and her advice not to exercise on locked joints at all was a starting point of a year long journey. She saved me from a lot of chronic pain and frequent injuries that I have lived with my entire life. I have since discovered that I am hypermobile and hyperflexible, and likely have mild ataxic cerebral palsy. Because of this, I have more energy and move more now than I did as a 5-year-old.
