My inspiration to be an Adaptive Yoga Therapist started in 2009, at Craig Hospital, world-renowned Spinal Cord and Traumatic Brain Injury where I worked as a Rehab Tech and Speech Therapy Assistant, I had the privilege of listening to an inspiring speech by Matthew Sanford, Adaptive Yoga Specialist from Minnesota.

After I heard that Speech, I decided that I wanted to be an Adaptive Yoga Therapist to support the movement and well-being of persons living with physical limitations.
Having worked in rehab, and prior to that, as a birth doula and in a homebirth Midwifery practice, Yoga Therapy deepened my understanding of the physical, metaphysical, emotional, spiritual and the true resilience, of our human-beingness.

My classes include Yoga Therapeutics, Mudra, Pranayama, Meditation, Yin, Restorative Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Hatha. I have a strong background in prenatal/ postnatal and fertility yoga as well.

In my private practice, I offer local in-home visits; a combination of Meditation, Pranayama, assisted/ supported poses, Yoga Bodywork and Yoga Therapeutics.

I believe that and Yoga Therapy can help support a better quality of life.
In certain studies, Yoga Therapy has proven to slow down the progression of some illnesses and ailments. Yoga Therapy can be adapted to any person or population and can be an integral path to deepening one's connection to oneself and the world around them.
I aim to serve my clients and students by facilitating the awareness of themselves as multidimensional, sentient beings, regardless of the ailments or limitations, perceived or real, which exist within them. I support for my students and clients in connecting more deeply with their spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical well-being, as well as with practicing self -compassion, as a means of healing and maintaining all aspects of health.

Most Sincerely,
Laura J. Nash, CYT, C-IAYT
