I did a few 1:1 sessions when I was visiting Portland and loved my experience so much I continued doing virtual sessions for several months with Emily from back home. She's so peaceful, demonstrated a profound understanding what my body and mind needed, and curated the perfect sessions for me throughout my pregnancy, depending on how I was feeling. I also just loved chatting with her every time -- I truly felt like I was meeting with a friend. Emily has a gift and passion for what she does and I'm grateful for the time I spe... read more

Her humor and honesty about what she finds difficult keeps us on a reality based level. Because let’s face it, yoga can be very demanding. It’s nice to hear an instructor say “hey this is really hard!” Yoga with Emily involves accepting the level your body is comfortable with, no shame in not managing the “yoga magazine” version. And yet the yoga I can do and have done has changed ... read more

I met Emily as I was suffering from chronic pain. I asked her to help me expand my movements, and she custom-tailored a practical, gentle plan through her yoga therapy.
