YOGA THERAPY
PRIVATE LESSONS
Karmuka Yoga is an online and face-to-face yoga therapy based in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, developed by the psychologist, researcher and international yoga therapy trainer, Michelle Goodrick. In a therapeutic yoga session, the instructor assesses the individual needs of the student and adapts the practice accordingly. Combining the transformative work of Yamuna Body Rolling with the wisdom of Yoga is the most effective way to benefit from Karmuka Yoga therapy.
YOGA THERAPY
STARTING FROM THE BONE
Karmuka yoga courses integrate the basics of Yamuna Body Rolling (YBR)
to educate and offer a deeper yoga experience for beginners and advanced yoga practitioners. YBR is a transformed technique that works from the bone using specific routines and the pressure of specially designed balls to strengthen the bone structure and at the same time loosen tensions and blockages in the fascia, muscles and help heal inner scars, therefore decreasing aches, pains and improving flexibility in one session.

It is recommended that students have the following materials available during their practice to fully benefit from each class and workshop: 1 yoga mat, 2 yoga belts, 2 yoga blankets, 2 yoga blocks, wall space and 1 yoga chair.
Research
PhD candidate Michelle Goodrick of Karmuka Yoga at the Autonomous University of San Luis Potosi is conducting research on the impact of yoga on brain activity, blood chemistry, depression, anxiety and general well-being. Initial results show that more than 85% of participants reported improvements in mood, sleep, posture and personal relationships, as well as a reduction in stress, anxiety and physical discomfort after completing 30 days of the Karmuka Yoga method.
Literature related to Yoga, its benefits and current science can be found by visiting the Karmuka Yoga blog.
Therapeutic Methodology
Karmuka Yoga harmoniously integrates the precision and focus on alignment of B.K.S. Iyengar’s yoga with the therapeutic principles of the Critical Alignment method. His teaching is based on the conscious use of props, detailed observation of the body and deep attention to postural structure. Through slow, intentional movements, he guides students to release accumulated tensions, restore spinal mobility and reconnect with more natural and efficient movement patterns. This combination offers a transformative practice that not only strengthens the body, but also cultivates mindfulness and inner balance. Please contact us directly for more information.
