Alicia Karen Thomas Currently I teach Yoga at the Provincetown Gym. Judging by the people in these classes, its either slow flow and meditative, or power flow. During powerflow classes, I always show modifications so that even the beginner can use their own pace and ability to stay present during the practice. I also teach Chair Yoga, at Seashore Point in Provincetown, great for EVERY-BODY. I have folks who bring their children and teenage grandchildren. These classes really are amazing. We envoke our grace,our breath,and our power, all from the comfort,and support of a chair. Again judging by the people in the class, we even do some standing stretches, and there are ALWAYS modifications, so everybody stays together in their own way. I also am available for house calls. Whether it a private, one on one, or invite family and friends and make it a private yoga party! I travel to you, and i prepare a class suited for the needs and abilities of those who’ll be present. I provide mats, blocks, straps or blankets if you need.
Pam Paquette: It has been fun. My Chair Yoga class would like to meet a second day a week!! My intro to yoga classes have 6 – 9 people in it! Like the song…its only just begun….

Alanna Hernandez, RYT Began with teaching yoga to the students at Sturgis Charter Public School, Hyannis MA. While still in Kind Yoga training, I did my final project working with a group of girls from Sturgis Charter Public High School. I taught a four week series for them supporting self-esteem and positive body image. I really enjoyed it and wanted to extend it to the full school, so I wrote a proposal, and happily, the school accepted it! Eventually I was teaching yoga to all the kids of the Sturgis East Campus, focusing on empowerment, stress-reduction, and health.
Alanna aims to teach honest and unpretentious classes that help her students reach their full potential. Because yoga was such a positive influence in her life as a teenager, she is passionate about sharing yoga with teens today.

She graduated from MGH Institute of Health Professions in 2000 with her MSPT and continued on to get her Doctorate in Physical Therapy soon after graduating from PT school.

She completed her 200 hour teacher training with Kind Yoga School in June 2012 and is now a certified yoga teacher. Although she is not currently teaching formal classes, she uses yoga with almost every patient. This blending of her passion for teaching people to help themselves with the practice of yoga is a likely and effective combination for her patients.
She is available to those in the yoga community who may have an injury that is affecting their yoga practice or preventing them from practicing altogether. Her extensive education in movement helps her modify and tweak each posture to allow you to return to your practice without pain and discomfort.
