Natalie Stawsky

Natalie has been a student of yoga for more than 20 years. She has studied copiously with world-renowned teachers and is a graduate of the Yoga Therapy Program at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, where she used to live. She was a successful established radio personality and producer in the Spanish media when she found herself suffering from chronic lower back pain and other conditions.

She was able to heal herself through her yoga practice, and decided to dedicate her life to helping others restore their vitality. It is important to Natalie to be inclusive and bring yoga to disenfranchised populations like inner-city children, incarcerated youth and low-income mothers. She has taught extensively in schools, shelters, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, churches, and yoga studios for many years. She has been living and practicing in Ashland, Oregon since 2008. She was the Movement Therapist with the Pain Resiliency Program in Oregon where she helps people with Chronic Pain increase their quality of life through movement therapy and mindfulness techniques. She specializes in Chronic Pain, Posture, Pelvis, Spine and Autoimmune diseases.
