Her work bridges behavioral science, neuroplasticity research, and embodied practice, translating cutting-edge neuroscience into practical tools for teams, leaders, and innovators.
High stress, burnout, and emotional dysregulation aren’t fixed with one-size-fits-all wellness apps.
This is not yoga. Not meditation. Not fitness.
It’s a new category of body-based training — grounded in neuroscience — created to:
✔ rewire behavioral and cognitive patterns at the nervous system level
✔ train emotional regulation through structured, physical input
✔ build lasting clarity, adaptability, and resilience in high-pressure environments
Designed for real-world use:
→ Product & R&D Support — science-based protocols to boost user outcomes and product impact.
→ Team Performance & Leadership — practical tools for sustaining focus, clarity, resilience, and connection in high-pressure environments.
Backed by science — rooted in neuroplasticity and behavioral research
Immediate impact — measurable shifts from a 15-minute session
All workshops are based on science-backed Body Mind Method™ protocols and can be customized and delivered live (in-person or virtual), licensed as digital content, or embedded into company platforms.

Proven Impact
- Yana’s ability to understand the nuances of movement and recovery is unparalleled. The results were remarkable: many members experienced significant improvements, overcame their fear of movement, and reconnected deeply with their bodies in ways they hadn’t thought possible.Ben AhrensCo-Founder, Re-Origin

Yana got our entire audience at Vitalist Bay on their feet and helped us feel our bodies again. Her movement sessions weren’t dance or yoga, but something uniquely her own. A moving meditation that reenergized the mind through embodied flow. Everyone left her session lighter, more alive, and with a big smile on their face.
Rie YanoCo-Creator of Vitalist Bay -
