Philosophy
As Training Coordinator for the Trager Institute, Carolyn assisted nearly every training with Dr. Trager for the last ten years of his life, until his passing in 1997. "He was my teacher, my friend and a father figure as he was for so many."

"My intention is to work with people of all ages to search, discover and explore strategies for managing better health and growth. This process includes increased awareness and deep states of relaxation where healing can take place."

Carolyn’s interest in people, yoga, and martial arts has led to travels throughout Europe, Russia, Africa, and the Far East. She has shared her Trager practice throughout her world travel including China, India and the Himalayas. In 1998 she conducted the first "Introduction to Trager" in Japan and has returned for more workshops on a yearly basis.
