Hi! I'm Mia Park.

Meet Mia!
Mia Park teaches yoga and taiji from the inside, out. She prioritizes using physical postures as a vehicle for internal evolution and as a way to access our deeper physical, emotional, and mental bodies. Connecting to these deeper bodies is a spiritual practice of self-awareness. With self-awareness, a life of purpose can be lived. Mia has taught yoga since 2006 and studies taiji in Europe, China, and Chicago in the lineage of Yang Cheng Fu with Patrick Kelly.
Mia uses yoga poses as a gateway to developing inner refinement. She also uses techniques she continually learns, training in yoga nidra, breath work/pranayama, energy-focused Tantra hatha yoga, yoga anatomy, yoga therapy, Daoist taiji, and other studies that support inner development. Mia and her classes are powered by hope and engagement. Mia is noted as one of the Best Yoga Studios in Chicago.

Complimentary yoga nidra practices.
In response to rising stress levels, I led daily, complimentary, yoga sleep/deep relaxation practices for 30 days. These free recordings are indefinitely on my Facebook page. I hope these practices benefit you. It's a crazy ride we're on and, yes, we really are in this, together.
