ABOUT ANDREA

In addition to teaching at the studio, Andrea offers one-on-one sessions that bridge the gap between yoga and rehabilitative movement. This is not traditional private yoga, but individualized, assessment-informed work focused on improving movement quality, capacity, and function.

Drawing from functional movement principles, therapeutic alignment, strength training, and joint mobility, Andrea works with clients to address underlying movement patterns that contribute to pain, limitation, or inefficiency. Her approach is anatomy-informed and evidence-based, with an emphasis on building strength, restoring range of motion, and supporting long-term tissue health.

Sessions are tailored to the individual and evolve over time, helping clients develop greater body awareness, resilience, and sustainable movement strategies that carry over into both daily life and yoga practice.

Andrea also offers mentorship for yoga teachers and trainees, supporting the development of movement observation, analysis, and more skillful, individualized teaching

Functional Movement & Yoga Therapeutics sessions may provide support for:

  • Persistent pain or discomfort

  • Injury recovery and rehabilitation

  • Joint mobility and range of motion

  • Strength and stability

  • Yoga-related or movement limitations or plateaus

  • Body awareness and proprioception

  • Healthy movement patterns for everyday life

  • Building resilience and longevity in movement practices

What to expect during a session:

Sessions are highly individualized and will include movement assessments, therapeutic exercises, mobility work, strength-building practices, yoga-based movement, and anatomical education. Together, you'll explore movement patterns and develop practical tools that support your goals both on and off the mat.

Comfortable clothing that allows for movement is recommended.

CLIENT REVIEWS

"I have used Andrea's office hours to understand and work through hip pain, and better understand hip mobility. I’ve recommended it to others who have questions about why they’ve never been able to do specific poses, or who have specific problems in their practice. It would be a great addition to physical therapy for rehabilitation.  It could be useful for folks new to yoga, and is definitely an excellent resource for long time practitioners."

"Yoga really does start from the ground up! Andrea helped me realize that the root of some of my difficulties with certain poses began with my feet. She gave me a better understanding of how to stand to support balancing and knee flexing postures that are difficult for me. I am eager to incorporate this information into my daily practice to improve my lower body flexibility, strength and stability.
If you are looking for a greater understanding of your individual challenges with yoga, I highly recommend her comprehensive approach."
