Modified Workout--Private Training with L Faunt

Hatha Yoga with L Faunt

This is a mid-range mat yoga class appropriate for people of most ages and abilities who want to start their day focused and relaxed. 10:00am Pacific US Time (PDT/PST) Thursdays on Zoom. Chair asanas available.

Suggested donation $10-25/class. I do not offer this as a prepay class session, so you can donate what works on a weekly basis as you go. This practice will be as true to ahimsa, the principles of yoga and the traditional asanas as I can be given my limitations trained in a non-South Asian context. This is a mind-body, not a fitness class. RSVP for link at irinaxara@gmail.com

LGBTQ+, BLM, inclusion/non-harassment policy. All bodies welcome to the best of my ability to teach you. Please consult your doctor before beginning any new movement or fitness routine.

Register for Classes and Disclaimer

Disclaimer: It would be both unethical and dangerous to represent the idea that I have the appropriate experience to teach all bodies. While my teaching experience and generosity from students have facilitated my practices becoming more inclusive over the years, I want to remain clear that I'm not SPECIALLY trained to work with populations who experience certain types of limitations, physio- or neurodiversity. If you're curious, please feel free to contact me before registering for a class. Sadly, this is a product of existing within an ableist, fatphobic (etc. -"ist") society that connects productivity to physical conformity, and that continues to structure training programs around such ideas. I'm taking steps that I can to pursue un-educating myself around this.

Client Testimonials

“I have been working with L since the summer [of ‘22] on weekly private sessions tailored to my needs and physical boundaries. It's pretty amazing stuff being able to work out when I experience the physical limitations I do.” -Misi C.

"I started private yoga with L on a weekly basis in early 2022 because I thought I needed to learn to stretch and increase flexibility. I got that—but I also got more. L stresses a “meet yourself where you are/it’s not a competition” mentality and stays aware of the body types they’re teaching, offering great modification tips as we go so that I don’t push myself too hard. I learned to listen to what my body is capable of, rather than what I thought I “should be able” to do. This was not only helpful in yoga practice, but also in dealing with an illness I was going through at the time we started." -Mary S.

Some Restrictions Apply/ No Refunds

All 4 or 5 class packs expire within two months of purchase date. If you're unsure about committing, paying per class may be the way to go for a while. Seriously, just pay per class if your schedule is super unpredictable.

No refunds on class packs.

In general, I do not allow gifting of classes to individuals who are not the buyer. I do realize that there are some situations where there are exceptions and giftees may be under-resourced. In cases like this, I have a "use it or lose it" policy towards pre-purchased class packs. For example, if you're a class pack buyer and you've bought a class pack as a gift for another person, either your giftee or you must show up to use those class sessions within the two month expiration period. Otherwise, no full or partial refunds.
