Meera Patricia Kerr

Have you ever wanted to try yoga, but didn't want to go
to a regular class because of
Your size?  Your age?  A disability? Well, you don't have to be thin, young, or flexible to enjoy the benefits of yoga!

Over 25 years of yoga teaching experience has given Meera Patricia Kerr a unique approach to teaching students with a variety of health challenges.

Her groundbreaking video, Big Yoga Hatha 1, is helping plus size yoga students enjoy this life- affirming practice  through the use of adapted poses designed  for the larger body.  Meera's yoga students are finding they can lower their blood pressure, improve glycemic function, feel more energized and happy with the simple and effective yoga postures (asana)  and gentle deep breathing (pranayama).

Yoga has been proven to reduce the health risks of obesity, as well as contribute to a healthy heart lifestyle especially important to a patient recovering from heart surgery. Her friend and colleague, Dr. Dean Ornish, founder of the Wellness Institute and author of Stress, Diet and Your Heart, and Eat More, Weigh Less, says “Meera’s adapted yoga is a perfect compliment to any cardiac rehab program. Her soothing voice and peaceful presence enable the patient to experience the relaxation response, and begin to identify how to achieve this state on his own.”
