About Irene S
I am a 500plus hour trained yoga teacher. I am certified for Advanced Restorative through Relax and Renew. I am also a Laughter Yoga leader. I have been certified in Yoga Nidra (Yoga Sleep) for deep relaxation. Having been through the cancer experience I work with people going through treatment or in recovery. I have also worked with individuals with movement disorders such as Parkinsons.
I really enjoy helping the individual to rediscover and accept their own bodies. We become very disconnected from our physical selves and yoga, meditation and breathwork are great ways to learn what we need and then to accept what we find. When a student leaves a class and tells me that they really relaxed or that their back, hips, shoulders etc. feels better, that is my reward... Yoga is more than just an exercise class as I help the student to bring the breath into the movement and the brain to come into focus.
I went through my 200 hour training and at graduation I was diagnosed with agressive breast cancer. I went through treatment and probably came through it with relative ease because I was in such good shape from my year of yoga training. The studio I attended came under new management and they asked me to teach. I was there for over six years, until we moved to the Reno/Sparks area
I received by 200 hour training at Downtown Yoga in Pleasanton, CA.
My 300 hour training at Piedmont Yoga in Oakland, CA.

When I first meet a student I want to assess their physical ability such as flexibility or physical limitations. Then we talk about their goals and set up a plan from there.
I have taught yoga studio classes such as Gentle Yoga (some students liked to call it Gentle Bootcamp), Active Senior Yoga and Chair Yoga. I have taught workshops on the Foundations of Hands and Feet in Yoga, Yoga Nidra and Pranayama.
I have worked privately with students with Parkinsons, MS, students going through or in recovery from different types of cancer including Leukemia, breast cancer, cervical and intestinal. I have also worked with those recovering from a stroke.
When you meet a teacher you think you want to work with you should be interested in their credentials. Then listen to your gut. Yoga is very personal and to be effective you must allow yourself to be vulnerable physically and mentally. You will be in unusual positions and often with your eyes closed so you want to feel that you can trust this person.
In one on one work, it is important to let the teacher know if you have had some trauma in your life so that they don't adjust you in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable or ask you to close your eyes if that is not right for you.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
What do your really want from yoga. Are you looking for just physical flexibility? Yoga is also great way to build muscle and bone strength. Do you want some of the mental side of yoga as in breathwork and meditation? The teacher can't get you to where you want to be unless you are able to tell them what you need.
