Doctor Grace

Hello! I’m Grace, or Doctor Bedard, depending on how fancy I feel on any given day. I am looking forward to serving your virtual yoga learning needs! I’m a doctor of physical therapy, yoga instructor, certified lymphedema therapist and former contemporary dancer. For this reason my offerings focus on movement and the musculoskeletal system. I have been independently studying Ayurveda and feel that the best way to get the most out of your yoga practice is to let it be informed by this sister science of Ayurvedic wisdom.
