Private Instruction & Parties

Essential Yoga Studio is proud to offer private yoga instruction to individuals, couples, and groups onsite at the Studio or in your home, place of employment, or venue of choice (within Springfield city limits)! 

Private Instruction sessions (for individuals, couples, and small groups or private parties alike) are generally led by our owner and yoga instructor Sunni. Sunni has been a student of yoga for almost 15 years; she obtained her 200-hour teaching certificate in 2021 and has taught more than 600 classes and individual sessions since. Sunni has also been certified in Trauma-Informed Yoga Practices, Chair Yoga, and Reiki Levels 1 & 2. She is currently working on her prenatal/postpartum teaching certificate with plans to graduate in Spring 2025. With an educational background in psychology and more than a decade of experience supporting vulnerable folks in her nonprofit career, Sunni approaches private sessions with a compassionate and therapeutic mindset, incorporating a focus on accessibility, individualized support, and an “OM for ALL” attitude that takes into consideration each client’s wellness goals.

For Individuals & Couples: Essential Yoga Studio welcomes the opportunity to support your practice one-on-one! A student may choose private yoga instruction at Essential Yoga Studio for many reasons including, but not limited to, availability that is out of sync with our group class schedule; building mobility, flexibility, or strength post-injury or a medical procedure; access to individualized support not provided in a group setting; seeking an increased focus on breathwork, meditation, or specific yoga styles or shapes; or beginner students looking to gain confidence prior to attending group classes. All of these reasons are valid, accepted, and welcomed at Essential!

Private sessions are generally held weekly but other scheduling increments may be explored.

Individual yoga instruction begins at a rate of $75 per hour for in-studio sessions. Additionally, we offer “punch cards” for private instruction! At a rate of five in-studio sessions for $300, this is a discount of $10 off each session. Private Instruction Punch Cards are good for one year from time of purchase.

For Small Groups (3-9 students) and Private Parties (10+ students): Essential Yoga Studio is happy to provide private group yoga instruction for events such as bachelorette parties, birthday parties, sorority/fraternity wellness events, employee appreciation and wellness events, and girls’ nights! Private parties begin at $100 per hour for up to 10 participants in-studio ($125 per hour for non-studio parties) or $150 for greater than 10 participants in-studio ($175 for non-studio parties).
