I’m Gigi. I teach Yoga and practice Ayurveda. I grew up in a somewhat unusual community steeped in yogic practice. I started studying yoga about twenty five years ago, finally decided to get certified in 2021, and I’m so grateful I made that decision.

Yoga isn’t about perfect poses- in fact it’s impossible for yoga to ever be perfect which is part of the beauty of it. Practicing postures and learning to work with our breath is an effortless way to let our minds and bodies transcend and rejuvenate.

After practicing yoga for many years, I moved to Houston and took a class that changed my perception of what modern yoga could be. Instead of building to a specific peak pose during class, the instructor passed out tennis balls for us to massage the fascia in our butts. It felt amazing, and a little goofy. I think yoga should be fun, playful, and make us want to come back to our mats- something we do for ourselves to be at our best even when life gets hectic.

Everyone’s body tells its own story. In my private lessons, I focus on crafting personalized sequences that involve both flexibility and mobility, which involves strength. My approach is all about meeting you where you are, understanding your unique needs, and exploring how yoga can help you feel more ease in your daily movements. When our bodies live without resistance, it allows our mind to be at peace.

Ayurveda is considered Yoga’s “sister science”. This ancient wellness practice is a preventative approach to healthcare that is centered around individuals caring for themselves in a way that is completely tailored to their needs. Through diet and routine, we can promote longevity and increase the goodness we feel living in our own body.

Lets work together to build a bespoke self care routine that serves you.
