So how does this work?
We will meet over Zoom. Now and then, I’ll run a retreat for the in-person group experience, and that is EPIC. But to meet most people’s needs, most one-on-one coaching happens over the computer.
It works surprisingly well for somatic work! I was trained online with many group classes, smaller seminars, and one-on-one coaching sessions with one in-real-life retreat. I can attest that we go deep in this work over the computer.
The requirements are minimal. You will need the following: a decent Internet connection, Zoom software (best kept up to date), sight privacy (in that you know nobody is watching you), sound privacy (or the best you can do if you live in tight quarters), and 75 uninterrupted minutes. (If you have less time, let me know so I can finish punctually.)
On some days, we might also use several tools, including the following: 2-4 pillows, balls for self-massage, glass or jade egg with unflavored floss (if this is part of your plan, I’ll give you lots more info), Yoga props for stretching, especially a strap and a block, a bed or sofa and blankets for comfort, a spot of floor or yoga mat for stretching and movement, or your favorite music (Spotify is fine).
Location and payment can vary.
Most of my clients meet me from their homes in a bedroom with a closed door or on a day when they’re home alone. Occasionally a client is in a pinch and has to tune in from the car, but this does limit what we can do. No anger embodiment in a bustling parking lot! One client, whose home is hectic, uses an empty yoga studio for 75 minutes weekly. We can brainstorm if you need ideas about a meeting place.
For payment, I take PayPal, Venmo, Stripe, and Wise, which my international clients tend to prefer. Payment plans are available.
For texting support between sessions, I use the signal for text or voice messages. It is private and encrypted, which protects your information. You are also welcome to email any questions if you feel comfortable with email correspondence.
