Overview of Services
Wendy Akune Yoga offers online yoga classes tailored for practitioners aged 65 and over. Wendy Akune, a certified yoga teacher with over 18 years of experience teaching seniors, leads the program. Classes are designed to be accessible from home, with a focus on making yoga available without financial barriers. The subscription model includes eight live streaming classes per month, held on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:30 to 10:30am, along with pre-recorded classes sent every Friday. Recordings remain available for the duration of the monthly subscription. A 7-day nutrition plan, “Reboot Your Nutrition,” is included with six-month subscriptions, providing a detailed diet plan with menus, grocery lists, and recipes. Newsletters are sent infrequently, offering education and tips. Private sessions are also available for those seeking personalized instruction.
Class Offerings and Schedule
Live streaming classes run on a consistent weekly schedule, with sessions on Mondays and Wednesdays. Each month, eight live classes are conducted, and recordings are provided afterward for flexible viewing. Pre-recorded classes, lasting 45 to 60 minutes, are released every Friday before 9:30am. All recorded content is accessible for the remainder of the subscription month. During July, August, and December, the live schedule may adjust, but advance notice is given, and recorded classes fill any gaps. This structure allows seniors to maintain a regular practice even with occasional schedule changes.
Private Sessions and Additional Offerings
Private yoga sessions are available for individuals or small groups. These sessions are fully customized to the client’s goals and can incorporate restorative yoga, chair yoga, hatha yoga, meditation, and pranayama (breathing exercises). Private classes are suitable for those with specific health concerns, limited time, or a preference for more hands-on instruction before joining group classes. The business encourages feedback on desired class types and workshops, aiming to adapt offerings to participant interests. The approach emphasizes growth in wisdom, compassion, and joy throughout all stages of life.
