Yoga Therapy

Yoga Therapy goes far beyond what you get in a yoga class or even a yoga retreat. Yoga Therapy provides a holistic analysis of the state of your health on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level. 

Using a unique blend of ancient yogic and ayurvedic practices, combined with the latest health research, we help you to gain a deeper insight into the obvious and not so obvious factors underlying your health. We work with you to address the root cause or causes of disease, and coach you on your personal journey to better health, and greater happiness.

Yoga+ Workshops

Yoga+ is a series of workshops in association with Dr. Christian Thoma from Built for Motion. These 2-hour workshops are designed to teach you skills that will support your yoga practice on and off the mat. 

These workshops add insights, and teach skills that can't be adequately covered in yoga classes. They include basic anatomy, relevant physiology, and yoga philosophy, with the emphasis on practical application and experiential learning. Take your practice, your health, and/or your teaching to new levels.

Our therapeutic group yoga+ classes are for all ages, levels of mobility and ability.  We’ve drawn on inspiration from our Yoga+ Workshops to develop classes that fuse yoga, self manual therapy, and corrective exercise to offer a new version of our signature blend of movement and relaxation. Classes are 70-75 minutes long, which includes 60 minutes of asana (postures) and pranayama (breathing techniques), and 10-15 minute guided relaxation at the end.

Classes are taught by qualified yoga therapist, Danika Michelle, or clinical exercise physiologist, Dr Christian Thoma. We provide mats and blankets, but you are also welcome to bring your own. Bookings are essential as classes are small. Please click the following link to find out more:

Outreach Program

The Yoga Wellness Clinic Outreach Program addresses body, mind, and spirit by combining the ancient wisdom of yoga with modern science to empower the community. Our purpose is to expand the practise beyond the walls of the yoga studios and into the hearts of our communities. Our mission is to offer the holistic teachings of yoga and mindful living to under-served and under-resourced segments of the community. 

We tailor the program to make all aspects of yoga – postures, breath work, relaxation and stress reduction techniques, meditation, and mindful living – available to individuals who, for financial or physical reasons, might not otherwise have the opportunity to experience its many benefits. Our classes provide a time and place of peace and wellbeing, where students develop the tools for self-reflection, personal empowerment and deep healing, which they can take off the yoga mat and out into the World.
