Welcome • Aloha • Håfa Adai

Breathe Maui Wellness is a personalized health and wellness practice where you are met where you are.

Rather than coming to a class where everyone follows the same routine, you receive individualized guidance and a personal practice designed around your body, health, abilities, lifestyle, goals, and stage of life.

My approach brings together more than 30 years of experience in healthcare, therapeutic movement, yoga therapy, breathwork, functional movement, patient advocacy, health education, and health and wellness coaching.

Whether you want to become stronger, improve mobility and balance, manage stress, return to movement, support healthy aging, develop healthier habits, or simply feel better in your body, we begin with you.

You do not have to be flexible. You do not have to already be strong or fit. You do not need previous yoga experience. You do not have to keep up with anyone else.

Begin where you are. We build from there.

A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO HEALTH & WELLNESS

At Breathe Maui Wellness, I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Your body is individual. Your health history is individual. Your lifestyle is individual.

Your goals are individual. Your wellness practice should be too. Instead of asking your body to fit into a predetermined exercise or yoga program, I develop the practice around the individual. Your personalized program may incorporate:

Therapeutic Movement • Functional Strength • Mobility • Flexibility • Balance • Stability • Breathwork • Adaptive Yoga Therapy • Recovery • Relaxation • Stress Management • Health Education • Lifestyle & Wellness Coaching

The goal is not to perform the most advanced posture, complete a particular sequence, or move like someone else Rather the designed personal care plan is to help you develop practical tools to move better, breathe better, become stronger, improve mobility and balance, recover well, manage stress, and care for your health throughout life.

YOUR PERSONALIZED CARE PLAN

When you begin, we look at where you are today. We consider your current abilities, movement experience, health and wellness goals, lifestyle, strength, mobility, balance, breathing, stress, recovery, and any limitations that may affect your practice. From there, I develop and teach you an individualized therapeutic movement and wellness plan. Your plan may include:

Therapeutic and functional movement
Strength and stability
Mobility and flexibility
Balance and coordination
Breathwork
Adaptive yoga therapy
Stretching
Relaxation and recovery
Stress-management practices
Health and wellness education
Lifestyle and habit support

Your program is taught progressively so you can learn and understand your own practice rather than simply following an instructor. As your body, health, strength, mobility, goals, or circumstances change, your practice can change with you.

The person comes first. The practice follows.

MORE THAN A CLASS

Breathe Maui Wellness is not based around everyone performing the same movements at the same time. Think of your time here as an individualized wellness practice within a supportive therapeutic environment. You may practice alongside other people, but each person is working on their own personalized program. One person may be working on strength and mobility. Another may be developing balance and stability. Someone else may be returning to movement after inactivity. Another person may have an established movement or yoga practice and want to continue progressing. And someone may simply need a quieter practice focused on breathing, gentle movement, stress management, and recovery.

One space. Individual care. Your own practice.

I provide ongoing instruction, observation, adaptation, progression, and support according to what you need.

HOW YOUR PERSONALIZED PRACTICE WORKS

1. BEGIN WITH YOU

We start by understanding your health and wellness goals, lifestyle, movement experience, current abilities, strengths, limitations, and what you would like to improve.

2. DEVELOP YOUR PERSONAL CARE PLAN

I develop a practice around your individual needs rather than placing you into a predetermined routine.

3. LEARN YOUR PRACTICE

You are personally taught your movements, breathing practices, modifications, and progression so you understand what you are doing and why.

4. PRACTICE WITH GUIDANCE

You continue your individualized practice with ongoing instruction, observation, adaptation, and support.

5. REASSESS & PROGRESS

As you become stronger, gain mobility, improve balance, or experience changes in your health or life, we adjust your program accordingly.

Your practice grows and changes with you.

PERSONALIZED MYSORE YOGA THERAPY

Mysore is one of the individualized teaching methods I use within my therapeutic approach. Rather than everyone following the same instructor at the same pace, Mysore allows each person to receive individual attention while practicing within a shared environment. In my approach, Mysore is not about requiring everyone to perform the same Ashtanga sequence. It provides a framework that allows me to teach each individual progressively and personally. Movement, postures, sequence, duration, intensity, breathwork, and progression can be adapted according to the person. For some individuals, this may include a more recognizable yoga practice. For others, it may include therapeutic movement, mobility, functional strengthening, balance work, breathwork, or a much gentler adaptive practice.

The method supports the individual, the individual does not have to fit the method.

HOLISTIC WELLNESS FOR REAL LIFE

Wellness is more than exercise. How we move is connected to how we breathe, sleep, eat, recover, manage stress, create routines, and care for ourselves throughout everyday life. That is why my approach looks beyond movement alone. Together, we may work with:

Movement • Strength • Mobility • Breath • Nutrition Habits • Sleep • Stress • Recovery • Lifestyle • Self-Care • Accountability

Sometimes we need to work harder. Sometimes we need to slow down. Sometimes we need to strengthen. Sometimes we need greater mobility. Sometimes we need rest and recovery. Sometimes we need someone to help us understand where to begin. The goal is not perfection. The goal is developing realistic, sustainable practices that support real life.

For more than 30 years, my professional and personal work has centered around health, movement, wellness, healthcare, education, patient support, and service.

My background includes work as a Clinical Yoga & Movement Therapist, healthcare professional, Oncology Nurse Navigator, Patient Advocate, Health & Wellness Coach, educator, and longtime Mysore Yoga Therapy teacher. These experiences have shaped the way I work today. I do not look only at the exercise or posture in front of me. I look at the person. I listen. I observe. I educate. I adapt. I inspire you to believe in your own healing and health and wellness journey. Together, we develop an approach that makes sense for your body and your life.

MY FAITH & MY SERVICE

My faith in Jesus Christ is the foundation of my life and influences the way I try to live, teach, and serve with compassion, humility, integrity, gratitude, and love for others. I believe our bodies are gifts entrusted to us, and caring for our health can be an expression of gratitude and stewardship for the life we have been given.At the same time, Breathe Maui Wellness welcomes everyone. You do not need to share my faith to work or practice with me. For those who desire a specifically Christ-centered experience, I offer Health and Wellness Faith Centered Coaching incorporating movement, breathwork, Scripture, prayer, worship, fellowship, and reflection.

My faith is personal. I am always in ministry through service of my gifts.

COMPLEMENTING YOUR HEALTHCARE

Breathe Maui Wellness provides health education, wellness coaching, therapeutic movement, breathwork, yoga therapy, fitness, and supportive wellness practices. These services are not a replacement for medical diagnosis, medical treatment, physical therapy, mental health care, or other services provided by licensed healthcare professionals. When appropriate, your wellness practices can complement the care and recommendations you receive from your established healthcare team.

BEGIN WHERE YOU ARE

You do not have to wait until you are stronger. You do not have to become flexible first. You do not need to know yoga. You do not need to know what exercises you should be doing. That is where we begin together. Whether you join me in Haʻikū, Maui, or LIVE online, my goal is to help you develop something more meaningful than simply attending another class. I want you to understand your body and your practice. I want you to learn tools you can actually use. I want your practice to become something that supports your life — not something your life has to fit around.
