Christy Forman
Yoga Therapist in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Hi I’m Christy. I’m a Yoga Therapist living in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
I am interested in educating people around Brain Health & Development; Sleep Support & Stress Management; Yoga in Recovery & Rehabilitation
I am passionate about bringing yoga into clinic environments and hospital setting and I believe yoga can support the individual in recovery when paired with traditional health care.
I specializes in private classes, injury support, yoga in recovery and sensitive back care. I teach at a physiotherapy clinic, at a rehabilitation center and within various research settings.
Over time I have come to believe we can all improve our quality of life. I am passionate about teaching others how to find health again and has been doing so for the past decade.
I began my studies when I used yoga principles along side Traditional Western Medicine to help heal from sports injuries and car accidents. My personal recovery led me on a road to study alternative medicine, rehabilitation science, deep relaxation and the art of self care. Over time I began to take my personal interests and share them with others.
Currently, I am continuing my studies with the focus on womens wellness, mental health and sleep and resiliency. I enjoy assisting at yoga teacher training's and yoga therapy training's and I mentor both new and seasoned teachers, run community practice days for teachers, support student practicum classes as well as designs and develops various mental health programs.
I am a senior assistant to Judith Hanson Lasater and my teaching style of movement meditation is influenced by Yin Yoga, Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy®, Qi Gong and advanced Therapeutic Yoga studies.
I am interested in cultivating a community around brain health and support programs for yoga teachers, healthcare workers and the wider public.
