Have you Ever wished the Yoga Studio Could Come to You?

Well Now It Has!

As a Master Certified Yoga Instructor, Johanna McClain has taught yoga at all levels for over 15 years. However, after a while even as an Instructor she was over the hassle of driving, parking, setting up, managing students, cleanup, and doing it all over again every 90 minutes. But she still very much loved teaching.

More importantly, she saw less and less people 50+ showing up to class. The feedback was simple: no one wants to do Yoga next to their daughter and all her friends. They want to do yoga in a private setting with their own friends.

And so it was born… Not Your Daughter’s Yoga [NYDY]™. This is NOT your daughter’s yoga class and THANK GOD!

This is a safe place where no one is pushing themselves to turn into a pretzel, no one is concerned with what they’re wearing or how it fits on them. This is a space where you can focus on reclaiming your health, peace of mind and optimal physical ability. A place to take time for yourself, focus on your breath, and focus on the slight adjustments that maximize your abilities.

We are a space where we call bullshit on women of a certain age becoming stone figures. We reserve our right to remain supple, flexible, free and mindful of our spiritual and physical beings. All in the comfort of whatever space we choose.

Whether on your phone, your computer, your ipad or streamed to your TV, your personal yoga studio is wherever YOU want it to be! Welcome to the NYDY™ Community!

KIND WORDS

Testimonials

“I really appreciate the flexibility of being able to attend a class “live” or attend anytime that I want through the recorded videos.”

“I love attending Johanna’s classes! She quickly assesses individual capabilities and provides tailored suggestions on how to modify a pose to fit those capabilities. Her enthusiasm and engaging style make attending her classes a tremendous pleasure! I really appreciate the flexibility of being able to attend a class “live” or attend anytime that I want through the recorded videos. My meditation practice has greatly improved as a result of the breathing techniques that Johanna has taught us and it’s amazing how she is able to provide helpful and sometimes very subtle posture corrections for yoga poses via video!!”

I highly recommend Johanna McClain, she is simply the best!!”

"... my posture is improving and the morning aches and pains have diminished."

"Stitch your core!" This has become a steady mantra for me as a result of taking Johanna's virtual yoga classes. Johanna said it early on in one of my classes and I say it to myself all day long now! Johanna is an outstanding yoga instructor, teaching the poses and principles of yoga in a way that my body and mind finally get. And, I love being able to do it in the grace and ease of my own home, in my PJ's if I want, with my kitties nearby. I can tell my posture is improving and the morning aches and pains have diminished. I totally recommend NYDY!!”

"She has helped me with some yoga poses that I had difficulty in understanding..."

“Johanna is the consummate yoga instructor! She has helped me with some yoga poses that I had difficulty in understanding where, in my body, it was helping and benefitting. As a result of her instruction I have more flexibility and more range. She is extremely patient and caring in her yoga classes. I have been doing yoga off and on for close to 15 years and since going to Johanna I have benefited tremendously!! “

"I learned to let go of my worries of comparing my form to other students... I am hooked!!"

“After I started practicing yoga with Johanna the biggest change I experienced was my self confidence in the class. I learned to let go of my worries of comparing my form to other students and truly make it about my own practice.
The favorite thing I enjoy in the classes is the set up instruction on the poses and the adjustments for your own body.
I feel the overall strengthening and stretching will keep me limber and strong as I age and has improved my overall balance. I am hooked!!”
