Approach 2

Ada-Reva's Approach

"Yoga for the Rest of Us” is core to who I am and what I teach.

 

​

I believe the body is a precious gift that requires special care in order to function and thrive in joy. “The rest of us” is anyone brave enough to show up for class despite their obstacles.

I welcome people open to new experiences on their path to wellness. I offer private and small classes because I believe people deserve individual attention. They bring all their vulnerabilities to my classes and deserve exceptional care as they embark on the road towards wellness."

Ada-Reva's Personal Experience

"After a diagnosis of MS in 1997, I realized that yoga was doing more for me than just keeping the body-mind-spirit triad in check — it was also minimizing symptoms and preventing progression. I wanted to share with others in the same or similar navasana (otherwise known as boat)."

Ada-Reva lives in Seattle in a multigenerational household that always seems to have just enough room for greyhounds (AKA the 45 mph couch potato) from all over the world. There is a saying that as long as there is space on the floor, you can fit another greyhound.
