Hi, I'm Annie

In 2016 I took my first sling yoga class. I became OBSESSED. Quit my job, flew to Barcelona, became certified, and the rest, they say is history.

Upon returning home I began private lessons in my home, in the park, wherever I could throw a sling up. Lessons became classes, became my first studio.

Over the years I have opened and subsequently closed five studios. Thanks unnamed plague. Now I have returned to my first love of one on one private practice.

In addition to sling yoga, I also offer wheel, bench, and regular old floor yoga.

What's the common denominator?

Making fit fun again.

My own personal practice grew from the fun I had playing in the slings. I want everyone to experience the feeling of being in the moment. Spending the hour worrying about nothing and nobody. Just remembering that now is a good time to be.

Have you always wanted to do a headstand but could never build up strength and mobility OR have you never felt safe or confident?

Benefits of Sling Yoga

TRACTION

The yoga sling creates natural traction using your own body weight-the safest and most effective kind.

STRENGTH

For dynamic, deep core strength, nothing compares to inverted, gravity-resistance training.

FLEXIBILITY

Just hang back, grab your ankles, and chill out. This is the safest, deepest back bend you'll ever achieve unassisted(and pain-free). You'll make flexibility gains effortlessly.

BALANCE

Asymmetrical, dynamic poses are a fun way to correct right-left imbalances.

• Relieve Back Pain: get instant traction and create more space between your vertebrae when you hang upside down.
• Increase Strength, Balance, Flexibility: posterior chain, grip, back bends, hamstrings, and hip openers.

HOW THE YOGA WHEEL HELPS:

• Improves balance & flexibility
• Builds core & back strength
• Aids in spine movement
• Releases tension & stress in muscles
• Supports chest, back, shoulders, hips & extremities
• Assists in yoga positions such as Back Bends, Crow, Crane, & Headstands

Benefits of the Yoga Bench:

• Stable & comfortable: wood frame in rounded rectangular shape holds up to 300 lbs, relieves pressure on the neck & shoulder when doing a headstand
• Beginner-friendly: the yoga bench is a perfect headstand trainer for beginners: follow the instruction to learn yoga inversion
• Multiple benefits: practicing a headstand promotes blood circulation and balance, relieves stress and tension, strengthens the upper body, spine, and core, and even improves sleep & digestion

Private yoga offers you the chance to move at your own pace. To choose the modality that calls to you.

This hour is yours.

You can come to me, or I can come to you.

I have two studio locations, one is in my home studio just north of The Woodlands, and a small workshop in Old Town Spring.

Private yoga classes are for small groups of five or fewer participants. Sling classes are available for up to two people.

We have packages that offer discounts. I am currently set up for two sling students at a time, but if you and a friend would like to book together, I can accommodate up to fou in my home studio using a circuit training with the bench and wheel.

If you are a former student of Yoga Trapeze Houston please contact me if you want to get on the schedule.
