We are so honored to have Colleen Saidman Yee on our Urban Zen Integrative Therapy team! She is the Co-Director of Yoga Therapy at Urban Zen and offers tremendous guidance to our UZITs in finding Calm in the Chaos.
Donna Karan’s husband’s dying wish was, "Please care for the nurses. They have cared for me so deeply." Donna came to Rodney and me to ask how we might be able to make her husband’s wish a reality. Hence, UZIT - Urban Zen Integrative Therapy was born. We are now facilitating calm and comfort for nurses, patients, staff, and loved ones in hospitals and healthcare facilities across the country. If you want to get a taste of the kind of restoration that you can get from a session, join us at Yoga Shanti - Sag Harbor or Yoga Shanti Tribeca and let us care for you. Class schedules are always available on www.yogashanti.com 🙏🏽💓
