Adaptive yoga that bends to you: Specialized yoga for chronic illness.

Meet the Instructor

Hi! I’m Shannon.

I am a certified yoga teacher who specializes in adapting therapeutic yoga for those with chronic health conditions. My classes are inspired by my own experience living with a complex autoimmune disease, and I hope to share with you the benefits this mind-body practice can bring.

Live-streamed adaptive classes and On-Demand Videos that meet your body where it is at. How Nourish is different:

Poses are not held for long periods and have minimal repetitions. Transitions between poses are slow.
A neuro-muscular approach that helps your brain & body let go of chronically held tensions.
Short classes are available. Breaks are enouraged and props are used to safely support your body.
A supportive environment with others who "get it." With optional community discussion after each class.

What people are saying:

"My needs as an ME patient were understood and I was free to set my own boundaries for what was safe for me. Not feeling pushed or pressured to do anything a particular way -- I really appreciated being reminded of this a few times throughout the class, as it is so different from the approach in traditional yoga studios, which is to push yourself."

"First time since having my disease I felt relaxed, at ease and rested in my body, very different experience. It definitely shows you have adapted the class for chronic illness patients!"

"I was feeling so well after class. Like so in my body. It felt so good to have a yoga class where it’s not just “push push push”. I felt it was just a gift to my body."

Try a Class

"I loved that I was able to do this class from bed, and that I felt like I had support and encouragement to do so, particularly on a bad day. Being able to move a little, and to feel good about myself for a moment, was wonderful. And I LOVED the guided meditation. :)"

" I feel like this is more than yoga, it’s a chance to build a tribe of CFS/ME people. We’re isolated alone as individuals but, as a group, there’s strength and connection."
