About Recuperative Yoga

Recuperative Yoga is a style of yoga that focuses on the science of yoga and the science of the human body.  It is a modern yoga program that is designed to restore and maintain our body's appropriate range of motion, create good alignment, optimize muscle balance and cultivate physical awareness.


Recuperative Yoga recognizes that not every pose is for everybody, and that physical limitations may be a result of injury or illness, poor posture in a work environment, or overuse in athletic performance.   It puts the spotlight on muscle functions and body mechanics, and utilizes simple exercises and yoga postures to restore a balance of strength and flexibility.   It is an innovative method to enhance and optimize body performance for all levels.


Recuperative Yoga is a way to manage life's difficulties due to chronic pain, stress and tension. It is a safe and transformational system that benefits men and women of all ages and at all levels, from elite athletes to the athletically or physically challenged. Recuperative Yoga is a way to reduce anxiety from work and every day life. It emphasizes knowledge, personal wellness, breath and relaxation.   From recuperative levels to the advanced, it is a method to assist each individual's search for health and well-being.
