If you need the personal attention that you can’t find in a studio
Some of the health practices we can tailor for your body and your health are: improved breathing, posture and movement habits. We also offer complementary tools for pain management and injury recovery.
If you want better relationships
Fulfilling relationships with others begin with a good relationship with ourselves. Our hurried lifestyles are often full of self blame and harsh self criticism. In a private yoga program we can develop self acceptance and compassion which then radiates out to our inner circles and then our communities. Modern psychology also tells us that this is the key to success in business. The more gentle and playful we are with ourselves, the more emboldened we feel to live our lives fully, take risks and live through the good and the not so good outcomes.
About Me
My name is Ann-Marie Everitt and I am happy to share Ambā Yoga NYC with you. Ambā is a Sanskrit word for mother which was given to me when I became a teacher and so it is the umbrella for all my yoga offerings.
Yoga saved my sanity when I was suffering from anxiety and depression. Work, family, relationships were overwhelming. I was drinking too much, crying all the time and crippled by indecision. That was twenty-five years ago, yoga gave me a path through that crazy maze to balance and happiness and has given me good health ever since.
My classes channel the sun, surf and sea of my home country Australia. My approach is light and playful. I believe wholeheartedly that together we can empower you with healthy body and mind.
