Class Descriptions

A One-on-One here at the Houstonian is all about you! Leverage our team of experienced & well-seasoned instructors to curate your personalized yoga practice that works best for your lifestyle and wellness intentions.  

Consider a One-on-One because:

- You’re new to yoga and want a confidence-boosting jumpstart on what to expect.  

- You’re experiencing tightness in your back (or other body part) that’s limiting your mobility.  

- You’d like to increase your performance in a particular sport - take strokes off your golf game or help win that upcoming pickle ball tournament. 

- You want a deep dive into a yoga pose (or poses) to really understand alignment relative to your body.  

- You are dealing with a life transition (moving, new job, retirement, etc…) and want the extra personalized care.

  

Whether or not it's one-time only, once-in-a-while, or a weekly event, easily reserve - and manage - your One-on-One on The Houstonian app.

Please reserve your spot more than 24 hours in advance.  The instructor may cancel the session if a reservation isn't made 24 hours in advance.

When a friend shared Marie Kondo's book "The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up," I began my own Tidying Festival and haven't looked back. I am amazed by the changes that it has brought to my life and can’t wait to share with you practical ways to start organizing your home with the KonMari Method™.

As women we hold the duty of not only owning and refining our strengths but ​allowing​ them to be seen. This courageous step requires the acknowledgment of what makes us feel small and the acceptance of what truly makes us brave and beautiful. As we address the image misconceptions that filter how we view ourselves on the physical level, we unleash the power to be seen as we really are- with authenticity and ease.
