Cultivating presence and finding peace with
Yoga Therapy

Welcome

My name is Pascale Bouchard

I’m a yoga teacher based in Montreal, originally from Missouri, offering private sessions and group classes in both English and French. I’ve been practicing yoga since 2016, training since 2020, and teaching in community centers, schools, studios, online, and privately since 2021. Since 2022, I’ve worked one-on-one with clients, initially specializing in prenatal yoga.

​

Before fully dedicating myself to yoga and yoga therapy, I had a background in medical sciences, which gives me a grounded and practical approach to my sessions. In addition to yoga, I have professional experience in hypnosis and Reiki, a Japanese energy healing modality. These practices, along with my intuition, help me tailor each session to what my clients truly need. This work comes naturally to me, and I deeply enjoy guiding others toward greater balance and well-being.

What is Yoga Therapy?

"Yoga therapy is a holistic healing art. Rather than prescribe treatments, it invites presence and awareness. Using age-old yogic approaches to deeper presence and awareness, we are able to know ourselves more fully. Out of that knowing, we are more easily moved to embrace the opportunity for change, growth, and enhanced well-being in body, feelings, thought, and spirit."

Michael Lee, Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy

What a Yoga Therapy session looks like

The first appointment consists of an initial assessment where the Pascale gathers information about your health history, current concerns, and goals for the session. Based on this assessment, the Pascale will suggest a tailored yoga practice that may include a combination of physical postures (asanas), breathwork (pranayama), meditation, mindfulness techniques, and relaxation practices.

​

​Throughout the session, the Pascale guides you through the suggested practices, offering adjustments, modifications, and verbal cues to ensure safety and effectiveness. The focus is on fostering self-awareness, encouraging mindful movement, and promoting relaxation and stress reduction. Pascale may also provide education and guidance on lifestyle factors such as nutrition, sleep, and stress to support overall well-being.

​

Overall, you can expect to feel supported, empowered, and deeply nourished during a yoga therapy session as you explore new ways to cultivate balance, resilience, and vitality in your life.

"Pascale is such a warm hearted and empathetic yoga instructor. She is in tune with the needs of her students. Pascale is able to push people while respecting their limits and offering alternative poses when needed. I have always enjoyed her classes and the way she takes the time to get to know her students. Her love for what she does is inspiring and keeps me coming back for more of her yoga classes!"
