Lucie Kasova
Known for a teaching style that integrates yoga and mindfulness, I offer clear instruction, alignment cues and posture modifications. My moderately-paced classes incorporate creative sequencing of postures and exploration of breath, helping you cultivate strength, mobility and flexibility, as well as clarity of mind. No matter where you are on the spectrum, the intention is to make the yoga practices accessible and support you to overcome challenges, increase vitality, restore balance and optimize wellness, with a process that is focused on learning and growth rather than fixing.
I also teach Yoga Nidra classes for insomnia, stress, anxiety, depression and PTSD. I used Yoga Nidra for my own healing from a traumatic brain injury a few years ago, training my nervous system to activate the relaxation response, to help reduce erratic heart beat and promote healthy production of important hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain much needed for healing.
Drawing on my practice of yoga and meditation for more than two decades, I bring warmth, passion and insight to my classes, with the intention to spark curiosity about the ways yoga helps to illuminate the inner workings of the body and mind. Utilizing techniques of yoga as a therapeutic tool for prevention and healing, my goal is that you gain confidence, improve self-understanding and discover the wisdom of your own body.
I teach classes and workshops in the U.S. and Europe, and am available for private yoga and Thai Yoga Bodywork sessions. I also present yoga and mindfulness classes to non-profit organizations, schools and businesses of all types.
