At Namasté Yoga Studio, your health and safety, and that of our own, are our top priority. Due to building limitations within our studio, prohibiting us to meet several very significant requirements of the State of Washington Phase 2 Fitness and Training COVID-19 Requirements, we have moved. Rest assured, we will continue to be in the Spokane Valley, returning to our new studio in mid- to late-autumn. Certainly, of course, we will defer to the timeline issued by the state and ensure that we are first able to meet or exceed all compliancy requirements, as they are directed. There is no rush, and those factors will ultimately determine when and how we safely return to a studio setting. As we have more information provided to us in these regards, we will be in a better position to announce our new location but not until appropriate to do so.

As with everyone's experiences during this particular time, so much of what we do is in a wait-and-see pattern, proceeding cautiously, and not only is that okay, it is wise. Sometimes we have to be patient, particularly now.  Ensuring your health and safety, as well as our own, is simply non-negotiable. We thank you for your understanding and for your patience, too.

Until we return, we will continue to hold all classes, specialty series, private classes, and workshops livestream on Zoom.

With continued gratitude,
Gianna
Mindful Trauma-Informed Yoga
Clinical Trauma-Informed Therapeutic Yoga Program
About Us: Our Studio provides the benefit of small group classes and individualized attention and our class instruction is intended to gently build strength, increase flexibility and range of motion,  as well as to compassionately support the student, as they begin to experience how the practice of Yoga and meditation can beneficially contribute to ones overall physical and mental well-being.  In addition to working with each individual's specific needs, all of our classes include Yoga that is therapeutic, for the care of the back and spine.

Welcome! To ensure that the student’s needs are being met most appropriately and effectively, students newly contacting the Studio or enrolling in class(es) will have a phone consultation with Gianna, to ensure that they are placed in a class which will most appropriately meet their needs. Understandably, not all group classes are appropriate, nor comfortable (for a variety of reasons) for every individual, and a student may prefer a private class setting to guide them in their practices, in the most supported way.

Professional Recommendations
"I refer patients to Gianna and have been continually impressed with the outcomes my patients see, both physically and emotionally. Gianna is someone who is knowledgable of the human body and takes care with each person, as an individual. She takes into consideration each person's specific needs and strives to tailor the Yoga experience to the individual. Her studio is "come as you are”, and each person is welcomed equally, regardless of their Yoga experience, size, or shape. I was new to Yoga myself and took several private sessions with Gianna. She was patient, kind, and was a key player in my own physical journey to manage a herniated disc with leg pain. Yoga, combined with chiropractic care and rehab exercises, continues to offer management of my symptoms of what can be a debilitating condition. I would not hesitate to recommend Gianna."

Student Testimonials
"I was medically retired from the Los Angeles Police Department, after nine years of service, due to injures I sustained from an on-duty traffic collision. I have had multiple spinal surgeries and years of professional physical therapy; however, I still suffer from debilitating back pain. For some reason, which is still unknown to me, I did not want to try Yoga. Last year, I called a local Yoga Studio to tell the owner my story. I was recommended to Gianna for private sessions. I am so thankful I found Gianna. She has helped me in such a profound way. Yoga has proven to be the most effective way I can "reach" - and thus manage - my chronic pain. My only regret is not starting my Yoga practice earlier."

- John R. • Newman Lake, WA
"I was referred to Gianna by my chiropractor, whom I would see on a weekly basis. I drive thousands of miles each month and have been in pain for years. Sometimes, I could not get out of the car and definitely didn't want to turn, twist, or even sneeze without bracing myself. At the urging of my chiropractor, I grudgingly set up an appointment for a private session and was pleasantly surprised that Gianna listened first and then patiently helped me with the basics of Yoga. During the past six months, Gianna has helped me move at a pace that is appropriate for me and although I wasn't aware of it at first, I have not had to visit the chiropractor in three months and feel better than I have in years. Gianna's practice, grace, and nurturing have been a Godsend to me. Thank you again for everything you are doing."
