Going beyond yoga on the mat.
Facilitating your breath, mobility, and mindfulness.
Building strength and resilience at all ages.
Namaste & Welcome
I wholeheartedly believe that Yoga is a healing force in this world and that we can all benefit from it. Yoga is so much more than bendy postures! My practice exists to work with people of all ages to support their lifelong health and wellbeing.
“I have had the opportunity to practice yoga with Bunkie in group classes and individual sessions. I have benefitted from meditation practice with her and am inspired to continue on my own. I love Bunkie’s gentle voice and her explanations of poses. Her focus is on what the client needs to feel their very best. I always feel nourished after a yoga session with Bunkie.” - CT
“I was able to engage physical therapy through Medicare for eight sessions, but when it ran out, Mom missed it! I contacted an old Pilates instructor and she referred me to Brighter Yoga Therapy. Bunkie’s mission is “Yoga for aging well” and she is amazing at what she does! - LaVerne
