East Bay Private Yoga

A year ago, we began working with Brad, initially in person and later through Zoom. As yoga newcomers, it was essential for us to find a skilled and suitable instructor. Brad excelled in both aspects, displaying exceptional patience, expertise, and thoughtfulness during each session. He arrives fully prepared every time, providing premium guidance from a true expert. Without hesitation, we highly recommend his services.

Brad's expertise in his field is truly outstanding! With his warm and personalized approach, he successfully helped me cope with my chronic pain. Thanks to his guidance, my sciatic pain has completely subsided. He shared with me a variety of yoga poses that are particularly helpful in addressing the effects of prolonged sitting, which is integral to my job. Without any hesitation, I would recommend Brad to anyone interested in tailoring their yoga practice to promote better health and overall wellbeing.

During a difficult point in my life, I encountered Brad, who became my helping hand towards deep healing. He conceptualized a strategy inclusive of yoga, breathwork, nutritious food and a healthy way of living. Throughout my journey towards absolute well-being, he provided me with remarkable support and encouragement. I am permanently grateful to him and eagerly anticipate every meeting with him.

Lately, my blood pressure has been troubling me and I was hesitant to resort to medication. However, after watching your video on box breathing, I decided to give it a shot following yet another high reading. I practiced the breathing technique while reciting the 23rd Psalm and measured my pressure again. To my amazement, it had decreased by 30 points! I have since repeated this method on multiple occasions and it consistently soothes me. I truly appreciate you sharing this technique and positively impacting my life. I can confidently say, medication is not in my future.

Following a severe car accident at just 20 years old, I underwent a grueling 34 reconstructive surgeries in order to regain the ability to walk. To this day, I've endured 36 surgeries. As an accomplished Paralympian athlete and experienced humanitarian aid worker, my life is often hectic and there is minimal time for relaxation. Compounding my stress was recent weight gain, for which I sought a solution. However, as an individual with unique physical limitations - including a fake hip, destroyed knees, lack of sensation in my right leg, and missing muscles - attending typical yoga sessions presented challenges. Even simple tasks such as standing and walking without shoes were difficult. Upon signing up with Brad, we had an extensive conversation about my physical restrictions, areas of pain and my objectives for practicing yoga. I began with Brad's yoga classes during a particularly stressful transitional period, as I shifted from working in an office to a home environment. Initially, my mind raced with thoughts and worries, but after completing each session with Brad, I felt significantly more relaxed. Notably, unlike traditional yoga classes that left me feeling as though I hadn't gained much benefit, Brad's classes catered to my disability and assisted me in managing stress during a demanding time. Additionally, the post-class sleep was excellent. Thanks to the online format, I was afforded the comfort and privacy of my own home - eliminating any commuting difficulties and maximizing my time. The platform also functioned seamlessly via Zoom, and I firmly recommend Brad's online classes. Brad has played a pivotal role in developing a yoga routine that caters specifically to my unique limitations. I thoroughly enjoy working with him and highly recommend his services - particularly if you face any individual challenges or limitations.
