Keep recording my Yoga for Bone Health course — standing postures ✅ done, 15 videos in the bag — when I realized… the sound in every single one was super low.
Why? Because I didn’t want my mic to be visible, so I cleverly clipped it to the back of my tank top. Not my brightest idea.

Cue a mini panic attack thinking I’d have to re-record everything (which wouldn’t be the worst thing, but still…). I went down the rabbit hole of fixes: GarageBand (pain in the neck), Audacity (another pain in the neck)… and then I discovered Adobe Enhance Speech. Total game changer!

After some editing magic, the sound is crisp, the videos are saved, and today I started recording the floor postures. I’m rolling!

08/10/2025

I’m doing it! 🎉 The self-paced Yoga for Bone Health online course I’ve been promising myself (and my clients!) is finally happening!
I ran out of excuses and started recording the videos—and you know what? The moment I dreaded most (putting myself out there with my imperfect practice) is actually… fun! I realized that if I waited until my practice and teaching were “perfect,” these videos would never happen.

I’m deeply grateful to Dr. Loren Fishman for his groundbreaking work and for training me—and so many others—in his method. And a huge thank you to Liz Larson, his assistant, for always modeling the postures so beautifully and… perfectly!

Dr. Fishman encourages his trainees to share this practice, not keep it to ourselves. So here I am—soon, I’ll be able to offer this course not only to my local students and Zoom attendees, but also to anyone who prefers learning at their own pace and on their own schedule.

Here are a few snapshots from this morning’s recording session! I’m enjoying it so much that I might even create a Polish version soon. 🇵🇱

Hi local friends! 👋
I’m excited to offer two summer yoga classes at the Valhalla Campus of WCC, both starting soon, and both designed for real people, not contortionists! 😊

🌿 Yoga for Bone Health
Back by popular demand, this course often fills up quickly and is based on Dr. Loren Fishman’s clinically studied method. Whether you’ve been diagnosed with osteoporosis or just want to prevent it as you age, this is a safe and effective way to improve bone strength and density, build muscle strength, and enhance your balance — all naturally and without side effects.
No prior yoga experience needed — and I offer plenty of adaptations, including chair options, for those with scoliosis, bulging discs, or joint replacements.

🌼 Intro to Yoga
New to yoga? This beginner-friendly class will introduce you to the foundations of yoga in a warm, welcoming environment. You'll learn basic postures, breathing techniques, and simple practices to reduce stress, improve flexibility, and support your overall well-being — no experience or flexibility required!

🧘‍♀️ Both classes start June 5

New Video on YouTube:Awakening with the Birds: A Body Scan Meditation !https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqhjIPSnWo0
This guided body scan meditation begins with gentle awareness at the feet and slowly moves upward through the body. You'll be invited to observe physical sensations with curiosity and without judgment, allowing you to settle into the present moment. As you explore each area—from toes to crown—you’ll release tension, cultivate embodiment, and gain insight into how your body holds experience.

Recorded outdoors on a peaceful April morning, this session features the natural soundscape of backyard birdsong to help ground and soothe your practice.
