Yochai is a registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 500). I am a responsible, reliable, and dependable yoga teacher with a background rooted in a Hatha-Vinyasa yoga practice with a strong focused emphasis on anatomy, alignment, the science behind stretching, and associated breathing practices. I am certified in Yoga for 12-Steps and Recovery (Y12SR), Yoga Warriors, and Prison Yoga Project. My personal specialized interest with using my knowledge of yoga is to bring such practices to certain at-risk populations that need yoga but for whatever the reasons are unable to attend regular studio classes. I specialize with at-risk populations, specifically clients at alcohol & drug treatment clinics,sober livings, and other facilities treating addictions and mental health.By emphasizing breath & alignment before balancing strength & flexibility, my teaching style offers students and clients thev opportunity to humbly explore personal limits, learn to work within those limitations, and use breath and presence of intention to push those limits mindfully. I’m often asked who is my ideal client, my ultimate demographic, that perfect niche. I welcome the opportunity to be of service to beginners and experienced alike; from those looking to learn the Sun Salutations to those seeking to refine their arm-balance-inversion pose. However, those that dismiss yoga due to of either belief in their own limitations or of yoga’s are for me the most in need of yoga (even if I call it ‘moving your body while breathing while noticing that you’re moving your body while breathing).
