She designs each class to ensure her Senior Citizens get the most out of their Yoga practice by offering both slow and easy sequences, as well as some challenging options for confidence-building. As a Senior Citizen herself, she knows the issues, needs and concerns of Seniors who want to feel better and maintain their independence as long as possible.
