"The classes I offer are not about striving for the perfect pose but accepting what you can do today. Acknowledging that we are all unique, you are guided to find shapes that work best for your body."

Improve Your Mobility and Flexibility with Yin Yoga.
As we age and enter the “yin” stage of life. Around 40, our bones and joints begin to degenerate. We become stiffer and less pliable and more prone to aches and pains. The type of yoga I teach, helps to combat this process. It targets important structural tissues in the body and "exercises" them in a different way, so we can maintain stability and mobility, and continue to take part in other forms of exercise like running, cycling, swimming, walking, etc. leading to an active, balanced, healthy lifestyle and for you to be "age-perfect."
If you’re wanting to be the next model on the cover of a yoga magazine or master the “perfect” pose in an Instagram shot, the yoga I teach will not be for you. If your goal is to improve mobility and flexibility, help lower back pain, or learn tools to help support your mental well-being, then I can help you. That is the basis of the yoga I teach. The people who attend my classes want to be active and vital. A regular yoga practice helps them continue, or resume, the activities they love to do.
“Thank you for the wonderful class tonight. I felt so comfortable joining and the class was fantastic!” Heather S.
Now in my mid-fifties I know that my own evolving yoga practice helps me to maintain flexibility and strength, manage old riding and athletics injuries and remain calm and centered to deal with life’s ups and downs and, to work with horses (my other job). My own yoga practice and therefore my teaching of yoga has become more intentional and contemplative, with a focus on function, not form, that is beneficial for all regardless of experience and goals.
MY STUDENTS HAVE TOLD ME:
“Attending Tracey's yoga classes has helped me with pain relief and I no-longer need to take Advil everyday.”
“If I don’t practice [yoga] I become irritable and short with people. I have noticed that if I do Tracey’s 30 minute Move and Meditate class on Wednesday mornings I feel calmer at work.”
“One of Tracey's 60 minute recorded online yin yoga classes a week, with maybe two shorter ones keep me happy. You are the best!”
