Yoga with Dominique – yoga basics, alignment, youth yoga in san jose, california

Yoga with Dominique

For over a decade yoga was one of many forms of exercise I routinely did. Then my practice deepened and I saw how much everyone could use a little bit of yoga in their lives. Join me as I help others find a bit of calm in the hectic place that is the Silicon Valley.

Style of Yoga Offered

My teaching style is geared towards basics/beginners and alignment. I also like restorative because I have experienced the benefits of this style of class and bet that a lot of people could use it. Additionally, I like to teach yoga to kids and adolescents. I find that the 11-14 year olds can benefit from yoga in the same way adults can.

About Dominique

I was a very smart, ambitious adolescent. I went to an elite college. I took a marketing job and excelled. I got raises (yay!). I got more responsibility (double yay!). Fast forward almost two decades and I was managing over 20 people, trying to change habits and thinking that had been ingrained as part of the company’s original culture, and showing my younger staff how to handle a lot of work and stress while keeping up appearances. And I had a family. Total chaos that eventually got entangled in my body and mind.

With a yoga practice that went beyond “exercise” (along with cognitive behavioral therapy), I could see how fixing and managing things while also being go-go-go had become my own ingrained pattern. Yoga gives me practice at just being that I can use for the peaks, valleys and plateaus of living.

Having completed my 200 hour teacher training at the Joy of Yoga School in Los Gatos, I’m sharing this gift.
