Emily K. Benaron

My classes are a trauma-informed blend of movement and self-exploration. I weave together traditional yoga and holistic embodiment practices with a focus on mindfulness and self-compassion. It is my deepest intention to guide students to deepen awareness and develop an empowering understanding of the inner workings of their bodies and minds, creating a vital connection to inner resources and re-integration with wholeness. Each class offers the opportunity to open up to the expansiveness and insight of your inner world. Students are encouraged to align with their unique intentions for their health and well-being while cultivating inner resources, compassion, and gratitude. My training as a yoga therapist helps students learn to adapt practices to their individual needs and encourages progression to mobility and strength in a safe, accepting, and kind way. This active class is designed to be appropriate for “all levels” with instruction to care for individual needs.

I am a certified yoga therapist (C-IAYT), an experienced and registered yoga teacher (E-RYT 500), and continuing education provider (YACEP), a licensed massage therapist, and a certified corrective exercise specialist. I have over two decades of experience teaching yoga and recently earned a master’s in clinical psychology. To learn more about me or reach out, visit www.emilybenaron.com
