make yoga yours

Curvy Yoga offers a different way to practice—for people of all shapes and sizes, at all levels of experience. 

This is body-affirming yoga that meets you exactly where you are and offers you ways to build, trust and deepen your relationship with your body’s wisdom. If you’re looking for movement that actually works for your body, lots of options, and embodied connection that leaves diet culture in the rearview… you’ve found your place.

Here’s the good news:

you don’t need a new body to practice yoga

does this ring a bell?

I practiced yoga for years always thinking I’d finally “get it” once I lost weight + got in “shape.” As my own body acceptance practice deepened, it finally occurred to me that my body was never the problem. The problem was that yoga wasn’t being taught in a way that met my body where it was. 

That’s why Curvy Yoga was born and why we’re still here today! Because you deserve so much more than being told to hang out in Child’s Pose (which plenty of people hate in the first place) while everyone else does the “real” pose.

Hi there

this practice is for you

I am a yoga teacher who regularly says I don’t care that much about yoga poses. What I mean by that is that I see a pose more as a doorway into feeling and sensing your own experience and less as something that carries inherent meaning on its own. So if you’re looking to perfect your Warrior 2 pose, this is probably not going to be the place for you.

But if you want a practice that meets you where you are, that not only helps you make space for your whole body as it is but actively welcomes your body and believes fundamentally in your body’s wisdom, then we’ve been making this space for you.

creating a home yoga practice you’ll actually do

Have you tried practicing yoga at home only to end up feeling frustrated and like it’s not for you? Our free, four-part, private mini podcast walks you through our approach, which is all about creating a sustainable practice that works for you.

While I never intended to make this my specialty, I’ve been supporting people in their home yoga practice for more than 15 years, and I realized I’d never put everything I’ve learned from both these conversations and my own experience in one place. So now I have!

You can listen on the podcast player of your choice, and the whole thing is around 45 minutes in length.
