Psoas/Trauma/Stress Relief
Got stress?
Got a tight psoas?
Experienced trauma of any kind?
Back by popular demand!
Who knew that we humans have socialized out a part of us that actually is a genetically encoded way to release trauma?
Thanks to Dr. Dave Berceli (a former monk who discovered this while working in war-torn regions of the world) there is a good and simple way to take everyday and long term traumas out of the body.
Why is this an important discovery? Because if you don’t – trauma stores itself in our bodies, often causing poorly understood stress and pain.

Beyond the 4 Corners of the Feet
Yamuna Foot Fitness
The 4 corners of the feet is a concept used in yoga and other modalities.
But does learning just about these points of the feet help us to better stand, do yoga, walk, run, jump, etc.?
Yamuna Zake is the creator of Yamuna Body Rolling and Yamuna Foot Fitness. Owning one of the first yoga studios ever in NYC, she is steeped in this tradition. Now she delivers to the yoga community (and beyond) something incredibly new, simple, and valuable.
Most people don’t use their foot the way it was designed. Parts of the feet are inactive, parts of the feet not intended to be on the ground are collapsed, bones that were meant to articulate are jammed, or we walk more forward or more backward on our feet.
If you have foot pain, collapsed arches, high arches, neuromas, bunions, hammer toes, heel spurs, or just tight and inflexible feet – or calves – you are probably not even using all 4 corners of the feet, despite trying.
Restructure your feet and not only will your yoga improve, but your posture will be naturally correct, your energy will be flowing, and you will feel strong and vital. As one of my students says, “This is the next frontier.”

Save Your Hips!
Yamuna Body Rolling/ Foot Fitness
Our hips are probably one of the most problematic parts of our bodies.
The hips connect the upper and lower parts of our body, and get over used whether we’re sitting, standing, walking, jumping or running – even when we’re sleeping on our side.
If you understand the number of muscle groups that impact the hip, you’ll know that issues with myriad parts of the body can affect the hip.
In this course, we will work through all the muscle groups that affect the hip – rolling through the muscles to free the joint, and working in the foot to restructure our feet so we stand more upright and evenly front to back.
Take the impact out of your hips and watch your energy rise and your body feel more free … and improve your sport – yoga, martial arts, dance, running, etc.

Save Your Face!
coming soon…
Give yourself a natural face lift.
Got headaches, migraines, or sinus issues? Open the bones of your face and stimulate muscular
A face lift is meant to tighten sagging muscles. But as bone shrinks with age, skin sags around it, and as gravity takes its toll, our heads and necks begin to fall forward.
Stimulate your muscles, lift bone, and counter gravity’s force with this practice – so your skin can be supported. Reverse the effects of repetitive stress from squinting and facial expressions.
Watch as we roll out one side of the face, then look in the mirror. The change will amaze you.
