Small Steps, Big Shifts

RESTORATIVE YOGA | BONE STRENGTH YOGA | CHAIR/OFFICE YOGA

One Practice at a Time…

– MY MISSION FOR YOU:

Less stress, more ease, and greater self awareness, returning us to the natural human harmony of body, mind and spirit.

Bite Size Yoga - Alison Sulzman, C-IAYT

Hi There!

I’m Alison, and as a certified Yoga Therapist I have come to understand yoga as simply empowered living. We all have access to the tools of yoga – ancient wisdom offering countless opportunities for small steps that lead to BIG shifts in your body, mind and spirit.

Yoga teaches us this wisdom as a lifestyle practice with many rewards along our path of wellness, rather than a single destination.

Join me daily, with practices ranging from 5 to 20 minutes, supporting sleep, bone strength, mobility and mindfulness. Sign up below to be notified about our official launch in the fall!

How It Works:

“Alison is a deeply knowledgable and spiritual person. She is considerate of my body’s needs each week in our practice together and knows how to adapt easily to the chair. I used to do yoga at the 92nd Y before COVID and enjoy her classes much more.”
~GS

“Alison’s understanding of my fears, limitations, and desire to heal was remarkable.

As I delved deeper into my yoga practice, I began to experience a profound transformation. My breathing became easier, my asthma attacks less frequent, and the grip of anxiety started to loosen. I was learning to control my breath, not the other way around.

Breathing now feels like a tall glass of water.

If you are seeking a path to healing and transformation, I highly recommend seeking out Alison’s expertise.”
~KF

“I came to practice Yoga Therapy with Alison to work through some very acute anxiety and depression. I needed support but wanted guidance in a holistic arena. I am currently in traditional western therapy but I am sensing some limitations of traditional “talk therapy”. I am beginning to appreciate the journey orientated nature of Yoga Therapy. Practicing with Alison feels fluid, powerful, calming and dynamic. It is my Talisman in challenging times.”
~MS

“Wow. I can’t say enough about Alison’s skills as a chair yoga teacher. More people need to know about her. I always feel challenged and better in my body after our class. I wish I could see her everyday.”
~IP

“Alison helped me gain knowledge and awareness about my body while recovering from an acute infection, and as someone with multiple sclerosis. Working with her over the course of 4 months, I was able to gain back strength and mobility needed to move back into an independent lifestyle. I also have a whole new understanding of the impact of my breath.

I highly recommend Alison as a yoga therapist.”
~MS

Alison has a very calm demeanor. I see things differently in my life after working with her for nearly 2 years now. She knows how to adjust her teaching for my MS condition and I always feel uplifted after our weekly class. I highly recommend her.

YOGA THERAPY

Yoga Therapists have significantly more education than yoga teachers – 5x scope of learning, with an education comparable to a Master’s level. Whether one-on-one or in small groups, I work through a clinical lens with intake and assessment, helping you to identify  areas of imbalance in your lifestyle. This often involves an integrative plan with specific, chronic health conditions. Let’s put together a yoga toolkit tailored just for you!
