Welcome

I’m so glad you found your way here!
This little yoga space is a place for every age and every journey where we breathe, move and find healing.  You can be yourself, unwind and rebuild at your own pace.  I’m here to walk alongside you and you always have a voice.

Rooted in science, guided by nature. Cultivating strength, peace and wellness at every age and stage of life!

Breathe. Move. Rest. Heal.

I’m dedicated to nurturing a compassionate and supportive environment where individuals can explore their unique paths to wellness. My mission is to empower you with the tools and knowledge to breathe mindfully, align somatically, and shine compassionately. Guided by yoga and the Ayurvedic principles of science and nature, my offer to you is a cozy, heart-centered sanctuary for healing and growth.  All ages and stages of life are welcome. Join me as we cultivate strength, peace, and wellness in a fun, creative, and peaceful setting.

Wellness Looks Different for Everyone

Healing is a very personal journey, shaped by each individual’s unique experiences, needs, and goals.  Yoga therapy is a compassionate practice that bridges the wisdom of traditional yoga with modern therapeutic principles, creating a safe and nurturing space for healing. Rooted in the philosophy that mind, body, and spirit are interconnected, yoga therapy helps individuals explore their personal path to well-being.

Drawing from my own experiences and the standards set by the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT), my approach supports the entire person, emphasizing customized care. Yoga therapy sessions integrate mindful and somatic movement, breathwork, guided relaxation, creative expression, healing touch and holistic techniques tailored to each participant. Whether you’re navigating stress, seeking emotional balance, or have physical goals, yoga therapy provides tools to deepen self-awareness, build resilience, and cultivate lasting harmony with yourself.

You’ll gain access to personalized sessions that honor your individual path and a welcoming environment that celebrates every step of your progress.

Yoga isn’t about perfection or being the most flexible.  Yoga is about connection and relationship.  No matter where you are in life, there is a place for you here without judgement.  We meet you where you are and move forward from there.  All ages and seasons of life are welcome.

A Note About Kids

I believe kids are a gift.  How lucky are we  to see their eyes sparkle and watch them grow and navigate their experiences that will shape their adult life?  My approach gives kids space to be kids.  There is no “box” to fit into.  My goal is to maintain a peaceful and safe environment for them to feel welcome and at ease.  Whether you’re a busy parent that has to bring your little one along for an appointment or you’re the parent coming along for your child’s appointment, there is a place for you here.

Why Try Yoga Therapy?

Many of us feel disconnected and imbalanced which can show up as dis-ease in the body and mind. This shows up like stress, anxiety, burnout, gastrointestinal challenges, fatigue, sleeping difficulties, and chronic pain to name just a few.

Yoga Therapy helps bring us back to a sense of balance with an individualized, holistic and complimentary approach to healing. This incorporates yoga’s sister science of Ayurveda, essential oils, lifestyle design, energy management, breathing techniques, meditation, mindfulness, somatic movement, inward and outward awareness and exploration, physical postures (asana), nervous system regulation techniques, self-care and so much more.

A trauma informed, client-centered approach is used which means you always have a voice in what we explore together.  All ages and seasons of life are welcome.

What's In A Name?

When I completed my 200 hr yoga teacher training in 2012 and became a certified health coach in 2013, I was ready to create a business name.  I’m lucky enough to be part of a family of creative people that are fun, hysterical, artistic, musical and full of ideas!  Who better to help me think of a name than my kids?

The criteria was it had to represent some version of motherhood/parenting/nurturing, yoga and give a nod to overall health.  My name, Ahbra (pronounced like candleabra), means mother of the earth or mother of many so I wanted to honor that as well.

The list was fun and the brainstorming sessions were often.  One name was so ridiculous, approachable, silly and meaningful…. and we couldn’t forget it.  I hope you don’t either! ❤️
