YOGA THERAPY

PRIVATE CONSULTATIONS

Karmuka Yoga offers personalized online yoga therapy classes grounded in traditional yoga and informed by scientific research. Developed by Dr. Michelle Goodrick, psychologist, researcher and international yoga therapy educator, this evidence-based yoga approach brings together body awareness, mindful breathing and movement.

During each private session, the instructor assesses your individual needs and adapts the practice to your goals, experience and physical condition.

Our studio in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, uses specialized props such as ropes, headstand benches, chairs, blocks and belts. For online sessions, many practices can be adapted using household items, including a sturdy chair, a wall, cushions, folded blankets or a towel. Your instructor guides you in choosing suitable support for an accessible, personalized practice at home.

The Body: A Gateway to the Mind

Our bodies actively shape how we think, feel and respond to the world.

For centuries, yoga has recognized that stress, postural habits and traumatic experiences can influence our breathing, movement and physical and emotional well-being. Research into embodied cognition explores how the body participates in our mental processes.

At Karmuka Yoga Therapeutics, our online yoga therapy integrates therapeutic yoga, postural alignment, mindful breathing and somatic awareness to help you recognize and change harmful habitual movement patterns, and cultivate self-understanding to transform how you think, feel and live.
