Makayla Mcintyre

Makayla is a passionate Certified Yoga Teacher and Somatic Practitioner. Her work is deeply rooted in supporting others through their unique experiences, whether It’s through healing the nervous system, trauma recovery, nurturing pelvic health or supporting an empowering pregnancy and postpartum. After completing her Yoga Teacher training she continued her education in various styles of yoga and other modalities such as prenatal/postnatal, trauma informed, yoga nidra, breathwork, yin, restorative, meditation and somatic work. 

Since 2016, Makayla has experienced many years of training through her personal and professional practice. She’s seen for herself how yoga, somatic work, meditation, breathwork and other mindfulness practices can profoundly impact your healing trajectory by connecting the mind, body and intuition. Makayla’s passion was sparked by her personal issues with long term pelvic health struggles rooted in nervous system dysregulation and trauma recovery. Learning how to tune into subtle cues from the body through somatic work has made the biggest impact on her personal healing journey bringing more ease and joy into her life. 

As someone dedicated to trauma informed care, Makayla understands the profound impact trauma can have on both the body and mind. She strives to always provide a safe and nurturing space for clients to reclaim their body, release tension, restore balance and find inner peace. She believes that healing from trauma is a process that requires time, care and a deep connection to yourself. 

Her approach in somatics and yoga is centered around finding a personalized practice for each client using a point of entry that the client is most comfortable with, whether that be through movement, breath, mindfulness or somatic techniques. She holds space by guiding her clients through somatic practices designed to help release tension, stored emotions, trauma and old belief systems that no longer serve you in order to create space for you to embody new belief systems, emotional regulation and nervous system stability. 

Makayla offers individual sessions tailored to your needs and goals. From navigating pelvic floor challenges, nervous system regulation, reconnecting to your body after dissociation, supporting your body during pregnancy/postpartum or taking a deeper dive into your yoga or mindfulness practice.
