No experience in yoga is necessary. Dr. Stacy will offer several options for each pose to accommodate all levels of ability and experience. Every pose has a variation. Every body has a place.

You can expect easy pacing, clear options, and gentle guidance that helps each person find a safe, meaningful way to practice, regardless of their physical abilities.

You’re welcome in class. We adjust, support, and modify so your body can move in ways that feel safe and meaningful.

Adapted yoga is a gentle, accessible style of practice that adjusts every pose, transition, and breath technique so people of all ages, abilities, and mobility levels can participate safely and comfortably. My background as a physical therapist allows me to offer personalized variations — seated, supported, or simplified — along with joint‑friendly movement, clear cues, and the option to rest or modify at any time. With chairs, props, and a welcoming, non‑judgmental atmosphere, adapted yoga meets each student exactly where they are, creating a practice that feels supportive, empowering, and truly inclusive.

I offer gentle, adapted yoga in two welcoming locations in Frederick County, Maryland— Mount Zion UMC on Monday evenings at 7pm and Homewood at Frederick’s Lodge fitness room for select morning sessions. In addition to these regular classes, I also provide yoga practices in any setting that offers a safe, open space, including churches, community rooms, workplaces, retreat venues, and private homes. This flexibility allows individuals and groups to experience supportive, accessible yoga wherever they feel most comfortable.

Students ages 12 and up are warmly welcomed in my gentle yoga classes. This age range ensures that participants can follow instruction, move safely through supported poses, and enjoy the calming, mindful pace of the practice.
