Compassion Meets Intention

“Gloria having a child of her own, who is differently abled, has such a keen understanding of the needs of kids who might need a different approach.  She is able to interpret their cues, make yoga work for them and make it fun.”

Hi, I’m Gloria.

Inclusion and Compassion Activist, Therapeutic Yoga Teacher, and owner of TheraPLAYoga.
I snap my neck to any variation of Mom, but you can call me Glo.

My pronouns are she/her.

Changing the shape and vibe of yoga

My passion is in making difficult yoga poses, confusing yoga philosophy, the science of yoga, embodied self-care, and community-care radically inclusive and truly accessible to diverse bodies, brains, and abilities.

In private and group environments-

I help children, teens, and adults learn somatic supports so they can, safely and with agency, connect to their bodies, explore their interoceptive experience, transform their relationship with their minds, and engage more [play]fully in their relationships.

I specialize in teaching trauma-sensitive, sensory integrated, adaptive yoga as a resource for physical, mental, and emotional wellness and engagement to children, teens, and adults with complex needs,

… including: physical and intellectual disabilities, neurodivergence, health conditions and pregnancy, neuromuscular conditions, sensory challenges, trauma, anxiety, depression, pain and limitations.

I also support sustainable parent-caregiving and self-helpers; who experience overwhelm, stress, exhaustion, and burnout.

I partner with non-profit organizations, schools, community-minded businesses, and YOU to uplift individuals and families in the Greater Lansing area, who would benefit from therapeutic, playful yoga.
