“What distinguishes Yan Deretsky’s individualized yoga therapy is the very effective combination of personal assessment, goal setting, and personalized instruction. Over time, the instruction changes to keep pace with how the mind and body changes in response to practice. Because of this unique approach of continually optimizing the instruction, patient referrals for instruction with Yan were very successful in helping achieve confidence, strength and balance.“
