welcome!
My sincere intention is to help people find greater joy, stability and relaxation through sharing my practice of classical and therapeutic yoga, Zen Buddhist meditation, and other Eastern healing traditions.
I believe that these practices can help people along their healing path through bringing mind and body together to find the spirit of harmony that lives inside each of us.
I offer yoga therapy for people with chronic pain in the back, neck, shoulders. When practiced with mindfulness, yoga can bring tremendous healing benefits.
Private sesssions of yoga therapy can help you move with greater awareness, freedom and ease. Sessions take place at my fully-equipped yoga studio in Hayes Valley in San Francisco.
Together with Robert Thomas, I lead "Zen Mind, Yoga Body" retreats at Tassajara, Green Gulch, and the Zen Center in SF, that offer an experience of the integration of the practice of Zen meditation and yoga.
I also teach occasional therapeutic workshops especially for meditators, that feature yoga poses to make the seated meditation posture more stable and comfortable.
I am very grateful and happy to have the wonderful opportunity to offer to others all that I have learned on my own healing path over the last eighteen years.
May we, together with all beings,
be happy and live in safety and peace,
Samantha
