Najeea has studied the yoga teachings of BKS Iyengar and TKV Desikachar as well as massage therapy for over 15 years. She has been a licenced massage therapist since 1993, a yoga teacher since 1994 and a Chi Nei Tsang (Taoist abdominal massage) practitioner since 1996. Her teacher certification is through the two-year yoga teacher certification program with Laura Yon-Brooks of Planet Earth Yoga in Seattle.

Najeea’s teaching style is influenced by her personal experience with physical therapy, pilates, Traditional Chinese Medicine and chi kung. Her knowledge of the therapeutic application of yoga and her dedication to helping her students develop their own practice is what distinguishes her as a teacher of both group classes and private sessions.

Najeea welcomes students of all abilities even if they feel restricted by their age, body type, injuries or other limitations.
