What to Expect in Your Private Yoga or Meditation Session

Megan meets every student exactly where they are, bringing curiosity, excitement, and a deep respect for your individual journey. At the beginning of your session, you will sit down with Megan to discuss what you are currently feeling in your body, your past experiences with yoga or meditation (if any), and what you hope to get out of your time together. From there, Megan will work with you one-on-one, tailor-making a yoga, pranayama, or meditation practice specifically for you to do that day. You will also be given practical tools and guidance to take home, empowering you to continue your practice on your own.

Absolutely no prior experience is necessary or required—just an openness and a willingness to learn.

Megan Grandinetti (500 E-RYT) has been a dedicated practitioner of yoga for more than 25 years and a teacher for over a decade. She began her yoga journey as a teenager with the help of a VHS tape, eventually exploring hot yoga before dedicating herself to the traditional Ashtanga Yoga lineage.

Beyond movement, Megan has studied yin yoga, pranayama, and meditation for many years. She complements her yoga teachings with a deep understanding of the physical body—she is a practitioner of Ayurvedic massage and a "Psoas-Savvy" Practitioner with Core Awareness. Megan has been teaching yoga privately since 2013 and considers it a true privilege to work with each person she meets.
