Therapeutic Yoga

Yoga has many therapeutic applications—it can help with low back pain, sleep issues, stress, and much more.

In this class series, join Larissa D’Silva, C-IAYT (certified yoga therapist), to explore different ways yoga can support specific health issues.

In September, the class focus will be on the hip joint. See below for more details.

This class may be for you if you:

  • Experience tightness in your low back, hips, or knees

  • Would like to learn some simple movements that you can practice at home

  • Want to build strength and mobility in your lower body

REFUND POLICY: Registration fees are non-refundable. To provide individualized attention and to build community, we keep class sizes small. Because your fee reserves your spot in the class for the session, registration fees are non-refundable.

MISSED CLASSES: Because your registration fee saves your spot in the class for the entire session, refunds and prorating are not available for missed classes. If you miss a class please contact Larissa if you’d like to attend one of her online classes as a make-up.

Hi! I’m Larissa.

Yoga can be a powerful practice to support your health. Along with western medical care, yoga has helped me immensely through brain injury and post-concussion recovery and chronic pain.

I am a student of Judith Hanson Lasater, Mary Richards, and Carrie Owerko. These wonderful teachers all share a passion for joyful movement anchored in a deep understanding of anatomy.

I’m so excited to share what I have learned with you.
