Private Yoga Classes in Newmarket — Personalized Practice for Your Body and Goals

At Wellness Place, our private yoga sessions are a world away from a crowded studio class. Every session is designed specifically for you — your body, your health history, your mobility limitations, and your goals. Whether you are a complete beginner, recovering from injury, managing a chronic condition, or an experienced practitioner wanting to deepen your practice, our certified yoga instructors create a safe, supportive, and transformative experience.

Private yoga at Wellness Place integrates seamlessly with physiotherapy, chiropractic care, and naturopathic medicine — making it a powerful tool within a broader rehabilitation or wellness plan. We welcome students from Newmarket, Aurora, Sharon, East Gwillimbury, and across York Region.

What Is Private Yoga?

Private yoga is a one-on-one yoga session with a certified instructor who tailors every aspect of the practice — postures, breath work, sequencing, pace, and modifications — to your individual needs. Unlike group classes, private sessions allow your instructor to observe your movement patterns, address specific limitations, and provide hands-on guidance that accelerates learning and ensures safety.

Private yoga at Wellness Place draws on multiple traditions — Hatha, Yin, Restorative, and therapeutic yoga — to deliver sessions that build strength, improve flexibility, regulate the nervous system, and support mental clarity. It is particularly effective as part of a recovery or rehabilitation plan, where movement needs to be precise, intentional, and safe.

What to Expect at Your Private Yoga Session

Private yoga at Wellness Place is an entirely personalized experience:

  1. Initial consultation: Your instructor discusses your health history, any injuries or limitations, previous yoga experience, and your goals for the sessions.
  2. Movement assessment: A brief assessment of your posture, flexibility, and movement patterns helps the instructor identify where to focus and what to modify.
  3. Personalized session (60 min): Your instructor guides you through a sequence built specifically for you — with hands-on adjustments, prop support, and constant attention to your alignment, breath, and comfort.
  4. Home practice recommendations: You receive 2–3 key poses or practices to continue between sessions to maintain and build on your progress.

Sessions are 60 minutes. Frequency depends on your goals — weekly for rehabilitation or skill development, biweekly or monthly for maintenance and ongoing practice support.

Frequently Asked Questions About Private Yoga in Newmarket

Private yoga is generally not covered by standard extended health plans unless it is specifically included under a ‘fitness’ or ‘wellness’ benefit, or prescribed as therapeutic yoga by a regulated health professional. Some health spending accounts (HSAs) may cover it. Check your benefit booklet for details.
Wear comfortable, stretchy clothing that allows full range of movement — yoga pants or shorts and a fitted top work well. We provide all props (blocks, straps, bolsters, blankets) and a yoga mat. Just bring water and comfortable footwear to change into.
Yes — therapeutic yoga is one of the most evidence-supported approaches to managing and preventing back pain. A private session allows your instructor to design a practice that safely strengthens your core, improves spinal mobility, and releases tension in the muscles supporting your back — without the risk of doing poses that may aggravate your condition.
Absolutely — and this is one of the most common reasons people seek private yoga.
