Working privately with an experienced yoga instructor is a wonderful opportunity to quickly delve deep into the heart of the yoga practice.   Whether you're too busy to make it to yoga class regularly, or new to yoga and want to learn the basics at your own pace with one on one tutelage, or in need of specific yoga therapy for an injury or condition, private yoga sessions are an extremely useful and easy alternative to traditional groups classes.    I work with many pregnant women privately, as well as busy executives, seniors, and injured runners and athletes.

I primarily work with students in their home or office because it is most convenient for them, although I also have spaces I rent in Boston and Somerville that are available at select times.   Classes can be 60-90 minutes, and can range from relaxing, restorative yoga with Pranassage (see below), to vigorous strength-building yoga sessions.   I bring props with me - all you bring to your mat is you.

Pranassage is a creative synthesis of yoga and bodywork that produces deep relaxation in the receiver.   I am Certified by the originators of Pranassage, Amba and Don Stapleton. I will physically move a student's body into a flow of positions that allows them to feel each position from the inside out. As the student shifts into interesting movements and positions, they have the opportunity to witness some forgotten possibilities for motion and action that provide balance and relief throughout every part of their being.

10 session discount cards available on private sessions.  

Barrett comes to her teaching open to the needs of her client.  When I need to explore my limits, or relax more, she is able to focus me in a gentle and motivating way.  The hour I spend with Barrett is a true retreat for body and mind that extends out into my everyday life.
