Experienced tutor in Yoga, James offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Beside being my brother who I enjoy see weekly and have been taking his class for about four years now, James give a total body workout from head to toe explaining proper body alignment, introducing new poses and working with weights for upper body strength development.

James is so enthusiastic about his practice that you can’t help feeling good in his class. He is very accommodating of any limitations his students might have and offers modifications as needed and no judgement. He always says “No two bodies are the same”. He is certified in chair yoga and will work with everybody. He had a special talent for working with seniors.

I've never taken a yoga class before learning of James' Senior Yoga Class in Clifton. I am pleased to have been attending for two years now and enjoy the weekly practice with my fellow participants. Whether you do yoga on the floor or in a chair, it will be beneficial to your flexibility as well as a fun class. I would encourage anyone to give it a try.

James adapts the lessons to the members’ ability, mix breathing, gentle stretching and mind-body techniques. I notice that Yoga with James has improved my mood, renewed my energy and affect my overall health and happiness. I am always looking forward to being with fellows Yogi. My doctor says that I would benefit from 2 sessions a week.

James encourages us as individuals to reach our best potential. He is an excellent teacher as he explains fully why we are doing each pose and the benefits of each to our bodies and our minds . I started the class to help with strength and balance and although sometimes challenging (in a kind and sometimes humorous way) I find I leave class feeling stronger.I look forward to the class as one of the highlights of my week and am doing some sessions at home as well. I’m so happy I found this class. It is a perfect balance of gentleness and strength. I would recommend it to anyone who always wanted to do yoga and was afraid to try. Jump in and “let go”

James makes classes enjoyable & asks about individual needs. I feel more flexible & balanced after Yoga class. I also appreciate his sense of humor!

I've been practicing senior yoga at the Clifton senior center with James for about 3 years now. In this class he does both mat and chair yoga. He manages to keep the class interesting by introducing new poses on occasions. If a pose is difficult he'll demonstrate a modification. I believe that yoga is good for the mind, body and strength. The requested donation makes this class very affordable. Worth a try!
