Required text: 8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back.



“In six sessions I felt transformed. The approach is stunningly simple and confers immediate results. I wholeheartedly endorse this program.”

        - Deirdre Stegman, M.D. Internal Medicine, Palo Alto Medical Foundation


“Every year tens of thousands of patients undergo major back surgery without any benefit. By using the novel techniques of the Gokhale Method, many of these patients can avoid such needless and expensive medical procedures and quickly return to a pain-free life.”

        - John R. Adler, Neurosurgeon, Stanford University Medical Clinic, Stanford, CA


"Although stunningly simple, the Gokhale Method™ turns much of conventional wisdom about pain and posture on its head. Each session of the course gave immediate results and I now look forward to many years of a healthy neck and back."

        - Joan Baez, folk singer and activist, Woodside, CA

Gokhale Method Testimonials

  • I really enjoyed the course. You explained and demonstrated the principles so clearly and patiently. The weekend format allowed time to absorb interesting and complex information and you gave us space to work on our issues and begin to remodel habitual practices. I am so glad to have attended and I will definitely put my learning to good use. Thank you, Clare! 

  • Really delighted with the improvement in my posture. I have been working hard on stretch-lying, stack-sitting, and hip-hinging and am noticing that my back feels straighter, stronger, and healthier. I think the benefits are filtering into other systems and even helping to improve my mental health, which is most welcome. Thank you, Clare, Esther, and all the team. 

  • The Foundations Course was everything I was hoping for and so much more! Every step of the way was superbly modelled and explained. The start of my Gokhale Method journey has been just amazing. Lots to work on now and I am so excited by it all!

  • Yoga has been very helpful, the Gokhale Method will change my life!
  • The content of the course was excellent and was extremely well taught by Clare. The slides were brilliant and made it very interesting. I would highly recommend this course to my friends
