Chair Yoga is my safe space and my go-to for a weekly connection with myself and community for many years. Chair Yoga has taught me how to be comfortable in my body and how to use movement and breath to find ways to get around in my daily life. It helps me keep my perspective grounded and simple, even as life gets more challenging. I’m very thankfuI I can touch base every week for wise words from Annie and lessons in movement that help me stay active and connected.

Annie brings years of bodywork experience and anatomical knowledge, guiding us safely into each pose. Every class is thoughtfully sequenced to prepare and warm up for poses later in the class. That same care is present whether we’re practicing online or in person. While the physical practice has improved my health in many ways, what’s made the most positive difference in my daily life is the way Annie weaves in breathwork, meditation, and a higher sense of physical awareness into every class. With Annie’s teaching, yoga practice has become a joy, a relief from the everyday world, a way to calm my nervous system, and improve my health. It’s a moment to take a deep breath in connection with others and explore the ways we can think about being our best selves.

Annie’s presence is profoundly grounding. Every time I walk into the space,  I feel safe, seen and supported.   Her touch is intuitive and her ability to listen – not just with her ears, but with her whole being – is a gift.  Whether it’s through massage or a yoga session I always walk away feeling more whole, connected and at peace.  What she offers isn’t just physical relief ( though that is incredible too ) it’s energetic, emotional, and spiritual healing. That is sacred.”

“I have taken yoga classes, in-person and online, at Two Dog Yoga since before the pandemic. In addition, I have regularly received massages from Annie since 2016. Because Annie‘s work grows from her long-time and ongoing personal practice, it is deep, intentional and profoundly transformative. Annie intuitively knows how to support both my body and my soul. As a result of my time in yoga classes and on her massage table, I am more grounded, I experience greater peace of heart and mind, and I feel stronger and more resilient. Her nurturing work is especially valuable during these turbulent times. I highly recommend Annie as both a yoga instructor and a massage therapist.”
