As a yoga therapist, my primary focus is helping my clients feel better and heal faster, whether in-person or through Zoom sessions. My approach is not based on athletic, group-style yoga classes. In addition to teaching asanas, I also offer instruction on pranayama, mantra, mudra, meditation and other yoga techniques.
While a single session can certainly be helpful, it typically takes four or more sessions to experience noticeable results. I am a certified gentle yoga teacher (RYT 500), a certified therapeutic yoga teacher, and a Yoga Therapist personally trained in the Krishnamacharya tradition of therapeutic, individualized instruction. Prior to working with me, I encourage you to research this approach to yoga.
I offer in-person sessions in Fort Myers, Estero, Bonita Springs, Naples, and Cape Coral, FL, as well as virtual sessions internationally. As a yoga therapist, I work with clients facing a wide variety of health conditions, including dementia, ALS, autism, depression, and various muscular and skeletal issues. Additionally, I have developed a fun chair yoga program for seniors, which includes dancing and music elements.
In addition to working with individual clients, I also teach meditation as a key component of yoga therapy. Please note that one-time sessions are unlikely to produce significant or lasting results.

Yesterday morning, I had an amazing yoga session with Irena on the beach. She arrived on time and was very professional, kind, and keen on creating a tailored practice that meets my specific needs. Being on vacation, my goal was to alleviate stress and relax. Irena was attentive to my request and composed a yoga routine that emphasized controlled breathing, light movements (to accommodate some of my physical limitations), and releasing tension.
If you're seeking a private yoga session, I highly suggest Irena. She was terrific!

The individuals new to yoga greatly appreciated your session. Given that this community comprises individuals aged 55 and above, Irina's instruction was straightforward and effective. Undoubtedly, she is a remarkable instructor!

My residents were fortunate to have Irina as their yoga teacher. She demonstrated remarkable patience in explaining the poses to them in an easily comprehensible and entertaining manner. Consequently, I intend to bring her in on a regular basis.
