Every Body. About Me.

Yoga is not just for thin, flexible bodies. Yoga by Candie specializes in providing yoga for all bodies, all ages, shapes, and bodies.

Body acceptance. Body confidence. Body positivity. There are abundant ways to refer to the often elusive concept of feeling at home in your own skin. It’s elusive because “we live in a culture where there is enormous pressure for people to look a certain way in order to feel OK,” explains Linda Bacon, PhD, author of Body Respect and Health at Every Size. “At this point, the myth of the thinner body being a healthier, happier one has become culturally well established.”

If you are battling to accept your size, Bacon recommends separating functionality from appearance. For example, if you can, take a walk and notice how amazing your legs are as a means of getting around, rather than thinking about how fat your thighs are.

I’ve been teaching Hatha, Vinyasa, Kundalini, Yoga Nidra and Restorative yoga for years and added Aerial Yoga a few years ago. I have 1,200 hours of training.

Not only do we offer Aerial yoga, but on location event, corporate and private training for you, your coworkers, or groups of any size. After 10 years in the Long Beach area, we are now serving the Ventura and Santa Barbara area.
