"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 Brain with Yoga + QiGong
As we age and enter the “yin” stage of life, typically around age 40, our bones and joints naturally experience wear and tear. We often become stiffer, less flexible, and more susceptible to aches and pains. My functional approach to yoga and QiGong acknowledges and celebrates the unique differences in our bodies, including various body types, skeletal structures, and physical capabilities. By gently targeting essential structural tissues, my classes improve stability, flexibility, and overall mobility in a way that respects your individual needs. This specialized approach helps you to remain active, balanced, and healthy in a lifestyle that's truly "age-perfect."
As a certified Brain Longevity™Specialist, I integrate practices that enhance cognitive health and mental clarity, providing you with valuable tools to support brain wellness and emotional balance. Additionally, I now offer classes in both seated and standing QiGong, a gentle yet powerful practice that complements yoga beautifully and further enhances overall well-being, including brain health.
If you aim to be the next model on a yoga magazine cover or chase the "perfect" Instagram pose, my classes might not be your match. However, you're in the right place if you're seeking improved mobility, greater flexibility, strength, and tools to support your mental and emotional health. My students are individuals who value staying active and vibrant. With regular yoga and QiGong practice, they continue—or rediscover—the activities they love most.
“Thank you for the wonderful class tonight. I felt so comfortable joining, and the class was fantastic!”
Heather S.
Now in my late fifties, I have found my evolving yoga practice to be essential in maintaining flexibility and strength, managing past athletic injuries, and cultivating a calm and centered approach to life's ups and downs. My yoga practice, and consequently my teaching, has grown increasingly intentional and contemplative, focusing on functional movement rather than aesthetic form, making it beneficial and accessible for everyone, regardless of experience or personal 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!”
