Invite greater ease, healing and inner alchemy into your life through custom embodiment practices, functional strength training, yoga therapeutics, holistic herbalism, and integrative self-care
Almost every day I see students and clients who are ready to take the next step towards optimal health and well-being, but they’re lacking two big things to get them there.
Sustainable practices, and individualized support.
Truthfully, there is no one-size-fits-all solution to movement or health. When I created Primal Vinyasa, the mission was simple…
To offer a holistic, body-centered, customizable method of movement and healing that’s truly accessible and empowering for ALL.
After over a decade of studying injury rehabilitation and yoga therapeutics with world-renowned teachers, I knew that the key to finding greater freedom in the body wasn’t another prescriptive model of practice…
But a universal method that would empower people to take their movement practice off the mat and integrate it into their lives.
So often, our modern society’s approach to movement and health lies in a “quick fix” allopathic approach that doesn’t honor the wholeness of who we are. The secret to optimal wellbeing isn’t more yoga, functional movement or cleanses…
It’s the integration of truly embodied movement and holistic self-care into every aspect of our daily lives.
Whether you’re a seasoned Primal Vinyasa practitioner, an athlete, aspiring movement lover, or simply want to invite greater ease, healing, and nourishment into your life…
These highly-personalized offerings are for you.
I’ve helped thousands of students and clients eliminate chronic pain, heal injuries, and ignite their own inspired path to self-inquiry and inner alchemy… and there’s no reason you can’t be next.
Through the wisdom of Primal Vinyasa, you’ll learn to build a sustainable movement and self-care practice that’s transformative on all levels, and I’ll be leading the way to make sure you’re completely supported as you step into a new, empowering blueprint and way of being.
Years of yoga, taught by Annie and Todd, have been a huge part of my career as a professional actor. I played King Lear at 80 years old and had no trouble at all speaking Shakespeare’s lines while carrying “Cordelia” in my arms. My strength and continued flexibility are so much a result of their training. I am now 85 and still very much active in the theater.

Primal Vinyasa has been medicine for my body, my heart, my mind, and my spirt. Reclaiming intuitive and playful movement as important and necessary has
healed me in many ways. Annie is such a skilled and connected teacher. Her whole heart is in these teachings and she transmits with amazing intention and clarity. I am so grateful for Annie, these teachings, and the community that is being created around them.”
I just wanted to share that I’m feeling well! The three closest people to me all had a pretty bad cold in the last few days, and I didn’t get it! It’s the first time six years that I haven’t gotten whatever was going around. Thanks for your guidance on immuno-super-strength!

“Having a one on one session with Annie is a life changing experience. She is present and intuitive to her client’s healing journey. Her experience and wisdom shines as she leads people toward inner health and wholeness.”
“Annie is in inspiring, creative, and an amazing teacher! She empowers others to go beyond heir comfort zone in healthy and unique ways! She is absolutely fantastic and lovely on so many levels. I HIGHLY recommend Annie & Primal Vinyasa.”
I found Annie’s Primal Vinyasa classes at a time I needed in my continuing journey to recover my confidence and capacity for movement. She blended my love of yoga and my growing interest in primal/natural moment in a skillful, creative way that resonated deeply in my body and psyche.
In private therapeutic sessions with Annie, her safe, inviting presence and skillful guidance is allowing me to find more capacity for movement that was very much needed and for which I am deeply grateful.
