    I am so happy to have recently connected with Caroline on a business course we are both enrolled in. Caroline has a gentle yet strong presence and is an Adaptive and Restorative Yoga Teacher, a Physical Therapist Assistant and a Thai Massage Therapist. She specialises in working with people with severe disabilities such as quadraplegics, people recovering from strokes and seniors with mobility issues.

    Caroline uses a blend of all of her trainings to help make yoga acessible for EVERYONE, and there is no one she cant help practice yoga. We talk all about her work, her trainings and how she helps people of all abilities gain the benefits of yoga.

    Caroline is currently splitting her life between Corsica and Thailand and holds beautiful retreats in Bali and Europe throughout the year.

    Her bio and how to contact and work with her are below.

    I hope you enjoy the episode.

    Caroline is a physical therapist assistant and yoga teacher with a decade of experience helping people heal through accessible yoga & movement.

    Her love of yoga bloomed because of the physical and mental benefits she experienced. The way it helped her manage stress and anxiety through university was so meaningful that in 2016 she decided to dive deeper, completing a 450-hour Yoga Teacher Training.In this training, she discovered Yoga Therapy, which led her down many paths, exploring styles like Restorative Yoga, Adaptive Yoga, and Thai Yoga Massage.

    She became a Physical Therapist Assistant in 2022 to learn more about physical therapy, anatomy, health conditions, and healing through movement.

    Some of Caroline's students live with full paralysis from spinal cord injuries, partial paralysis from brain injuries, various neurological conditions, and orthopedic issues. She always finds a way to bring the practice to the person, tailoring it individually to their goals and intentions while understanding the complexity of their medical history.

    She started Accessible Yoga Practices in 2018, an online community for older adults and people with injuries or disabilities, sharing ways yoga can be accessible and inclusive for anyone. She works with people online through 1:1 sessions, small groups, and courses on Therapeutic Yoga.

    Born in the USA, Caroline currently splits her time between Ajaccio, Corsica and Chiang Mai, Thailand, working online and leading international yoga retreats for wellness practitioners. You can learn more about her and her offerings at www.accessibleyogapractices.com, or follow her on Facebook or Instagram @accessible.yoga.practices.

    Season 3 Episode 4: Time For Some Radical Responsibility

    In this episode I get a little spicy, contentious even. This one is all about were we can begin to take radical responsibility for how we live, the energy we bring, the interactions we have, the choices we make. You might not like what I have to say, but its true-in the end it starts and finishes with us. I hope you enjoy the episode.

    Season 3 Episode 3: The Body Knows A conversation with Somatic Therapist And Philosopher Tamara (Cuchira) Levinson
    Jul 13 2026
    Send us Fan MailThis is one of my top converstaions so far. Tamara aka Cuchira is a one of a kind person who's work is so original and so NEEDED at this time. Our conversation begins with her childhood as an olympic gymnast, her career as a professional dancer and choreographer working with the likes of Madonna, to what she really values the most which is her work helping bring people back to the core of who they really are as human beings. We talk about life and death and her husbands Rubens miraculous recovery after a sudden life threatening illness, and practical ways in which we can all begin to listen to the body more, to help us regulate, heal and grow.I felt so expanded and on such a beautiful high after this conversation for days on end, its conversations like this that I started this podcast for. There are many ways to work with Tamara online and in person and she has a beautiful retreat in Mexico coming up in November, please scroll down to the bottom for all the links and contact info.Tamara's Bio: Tamara “Cuchira” LevinsonIt all began in 1976, when Tamara was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to loving, extraordinary parents who made space for her artistry and expression to unfold without interference, only support. This is where the work was first born. Her earliest memory is at age five, alone in her room, moving, sounding, expressing the ancestral pain she carried into this world through her body, along with any residual energies she absorbed. For young Tamara, somatic therapy had no name, nor had she been taught to do it, it was innate. And because there was no conditioning that shamed her for this instinctive release, she continued throughout her entire life, now 50 years in. It became her life’s work. Not from a book or a school, but from the classroom of life.This explains much of Tamara’s accomplishments; all born from passion, raw talent, and an unmatched discipline learned from her immigrant parents, determined to create a comfortable life for their family in the United States of America.At fifteen, the American dream materialized when she qualified for the 1992 Olympic Games in rhythmic gymnastics. Tamara still holds the American record for the highest placement ever achieved in a non‑boycotted World Championships or Olympic Games. After a successful athletic career, she retired at nineteen and moved to New York City to become a professional dancer.This was a new world in every way; from how her body was trained to move, to finally having the chance to discover herself as a human being. Dance opened her mind to how movement could become the paintbrush of her internal world. And New York City gave her the freedom to explore herself without rules or expectations. Immersed in the vogue and underground dance scene of the 1990s, Tamara was breathing the artistry and raw expression she had channeled as that five‑year‑old wilding out in her room.That energy manifested into dancing alongside Madonna on three world tours, and with pop artists such as Avril Lavigne, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Ricky Martin, and more. She helped create a Broadway show based on Bob Dylan’s music with the legendary Twyla Tharp, curated performance art pieces throughout the city, and eventually felt her Argentine roots rise again when off‑Broadway called. She joined the immersive, aerial, avant‑garde theatre group ‘De La Guarda’ and ‘Fuerzabruta’, where she scaled walls to strobe lighting and rave music, bungee-jumped off ceiling rafters, body‑slammed and slid wildly across a massive mylar pool suspended above the audience’s heads. One could say Tamara lived it all without apology.She later spent time in Los Angeles, expanding her dance and choreography career into television, stage, music videos, and film; including choreographing the aerial scenes with Zendaya and Hugh Jackman in ‘The Greatest Showman’.Yet even with a dream résumé, something was missing; that five‑year‑old who longed for primitive, raw emotional expression. This led her to begin teaching dance from an emotive point of view. But it wasn’t as simple as asking dancers to retreat from choreography and feel; that felt too frightening for many. So she entered through YogaDance: a creation born during her yoga teacher training, when she was asked to design a sequence. When she demonstrated it, she was told she couldn’t connect two postures with such creative, flowing transitions. YogaDance took off, and Tamara taught it at festivals and studios around the world.Naturally, it evolved into what later became MovMEANT; long before somatic therapy was widely known, when people called her “the crazy dancing lady.” They arrived curious and left transformed. That shift became the trajectory in MovMEANT: somatic activation classes that inspired aliveness. But in time, Tamara noticed that the lack of integration left her students feeling abandoned after ‘getting somatically high’ of the classes. And by then, ...
