Private Yoga, Mindfulness & Meditation in Nature, Reiki & More...

Since 2010, Michelle Chua (read her bio here) has worked with private clients that range in age, body, ability, experience, focus and intention, and she continuous to enjoy witnessing the whole-being wellness and consciousness that grow through their practice.

Private yoga sessions are a valuable way to receive personalized guidance on your yoga practice, including physical postures (asana), breathing techniques (pranayama), concentration (dharana) tools, meditation (dhyana) and understanding and integrating yoga and mindfulness philosophy into daily life and perspective.  These are all tools for mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health.

Michelle now offers Reiki Energy Healing during your private session of deeply relaxing Restorative Yoga, Pranayama and Meditation with an optional Soundbath during Savasana.  

In the Los Angeles, CA area, Michelle also offers privately guided Mindful Hikes, often called forest-bathing and is known for its mental-emotional and physical benefits,  with Pranayama, Meditation and post-hike stretch.  This practice cultivates loving relationship with Mother Earth, which Michelle believes is essential in individual and collective healing and thriving.

Beginners to yoga can learn the foundations of a sustainable practice that honor their unique body and abilities. Experienced practitioners can deepen their practice, choosing aspects of yoga to focus on at their own pace.

Feedback about Private Sessions with Michelle...

Michelle is one of the finer instructors of yoga, she cares and listens…my wrists have become stronger and my flexibility has increased.

We enjoy your classes and look forward to them. We are probably your oldest students, at age 91 and 81, but still actively involved in work and community affairs, thanks in large part to yoga and how much we have learned from your classes!
-Ralph and Blossom Nishme (Van Nuys, CA)
Yoga was very foreign. I didn't know what each pose meant...(or) how important your breath is...I've improved so much in my breathing (during this semester with Michelle Chua learning yoga for the first time).  I'm now able to hold myself up in downward facing dog.  I also find myself starting my day with child's pose and three minutes of meditation.
-Kimberly Montes (Northridge, CA)
Michelle is intuitive and in tune with each of her student's needs.  She takes the time and puts forth the effort to create a tranquil space where you can truly let go and either open up to the universe or focus inward.  She will make physical hands-on assists as needed and help you really get the experience you seek.  I highly recommend her class for beginners and advanced practitioners.
