and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.
~Harriett Tubman
As a certified advanced yoga teacher with a passion for learning, I have
studied numerous styles of yogic arts. Each style offers unique gifts
and I appreciate sharing diverse approaches. I currently live and teach
in Southern California, though I am available for travel to offer weekend
workshops and intensives.
I am skilled in meeting students exactly where you are in your life —
body, mind and spirit — and knowing how and when to support stretching
into new places.
You are never too young or too old to begin or to evolve! I work with
students from toddlers to active older adults in their eighties, offering
classes and special interest workshops for all ages and levels.
And you don’t even have to get down on the floor: I offer a rewarding
and stimulating chair yoga for those in rehabilitation or simply searching
for a gentle stretch coupled with breathing.
Movement is an integral part of a healthy, whole being. And spiritual fitness classes are a copasetic and cohesive match to healthy eating and positive thinking.
Private Yoga Classes, which enable us to work one-on-one and greatly facilitate targeting specific parts of the body and goals within an abbreviated time frame. I come to you and we work in the privacy and comfort of your home.
I first came upon Naomi at a turbulent period in my life. Trying to adjust to being 60, juggling work and family commitments, and dealing with a bereavement. I took my first class with her and honestly, things seemed better and clearer right away. She is a remarkable teacher who imparts her wisdom and knowledge with great generosity and skill. If you have a chance to be taught by her, grab it!

Partner Yoga Classes are a unique gift to your relationship and to your bodies. Stretching together can enable you to stretch into new places in new ways; it’s uniquely supportive and it’s fun! A whole new “communication” between you and your partner awaits.
Yoga Therapy is an opportunity to work one-on-one with a focus on freeing your emotional body as you reconnect with your physical body. Emotional traumas and events can be held within our body. Gentle stretches coupled with encouraging dialogue can enable our body to embrace deeper breathing and release.
Do-In (pronounced doe-een) is an ancient form of self-massage that prefaced all forms of massage, reflexology and acupuncture we are familiar with in modern life. Through a series of seven different techniques the chi or ki (life force) in the body is stimulated and energized. A regular practice is fun, and easy to learn and maintain. Do-In can be done anywhere and at any time. I offer these teachings individually or within a workshop.
Breathing & Meditation Classes can be held privately, in groups or as part of an intensive. Breathing is fundamental to longevity and well-being. Most people only use approximately 25% of their lung capacity! As we increase our awareness and use of our breath, every other system in our body benefits, our thoughts become clearer and our emotions more stable. Meditation can greatly reduce stress, create more sound sleep and enable us to become more present in our lives. I offer private sessions with the option of recording personal audiotapes for your future use.
The Five Rites are an ancient Tibetan practice also referred to as The
Secret to the Fountain of Youth. These five exercises are known to strengthen,
energize and stimulate every major muscle group, chakra, meridian and
system in the body. As part of a warm-up or your daily practice these
exercises truly enliven and enrich the body, mind and spirit.
