Abbey Chase Method
A philosophy of intelligent movement.
Breath-led, alignment-rooted practice for strength, mobility, and longevity.
Think self-massage! This is a calm and peaceful practice consisting of poses held for 3 to 5 minutes, primarily on the floor. The goal of this class is to release connective tissue: muscles, fascia, joints, tendons and ligaments.
Abbey balances informative, clear cues while encouraging her students to create space and stillness to deepen their practices. She instructs the use of props including straps, blocks, and bolsters to promote comfort while safely stretching to release tension and stress.
Yin Yoga
Power Vinyasa
Abbey’s Power Vinyasa class sequences are creative, powerful and well-balanced. She focuses on alignment and breath, building heat and strength.
Abbey consistently offers many pose variations to encourage you to explore at your own pace. Her students leave this class feeling strong, open and refreshed.
A Sound Bath is a meditative and theraputic experience that uses the vibrations produced by sound (Abbey will use crystal bowls) to promote deep relaxation and healing. These vibrations resonate within the body's cells and promote deep emotional, mental, spiritual and even physical benefits. Think extended Shavasana PLUS! You will leave feeling relaxed, peaceful, light, clear. Simply put a better version of yourself when you leave then when you arrived! Wear comfortable clothes. Bring a yoga mat or meditation pillow. Optional props are a blanket, bolster and blocks. $35 pre-registration required. Dharma Massage & Wellness | 420 Post Road West | Suite 201A | Westport.
Healing Sound Bath Meditation
26 + 2
Feel the fire from within. This structured and therapeutic practice follows a set sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises, performed in a heated room. Each posture is held with intention to improve strength, flexibility, and balance - both physically and mentally.
Abbey guides students with precise, accessible instruction while fostering mental focus and discipline. The heat encourages deep muscle engagement, detoxification, and a meditative stillness that allows practitioners to push past limits safely and mindfully.

About Abbey
Abbey Chase is a movement specialist and the creator of the Abbey Chase Method™—a philosophy of intelligent movement rooted in breath, alignment, and slow, intentional sequencing.
Her work sits intentionally between traditional yoga and fitness. Drawing on years of private teaching, collaboration with physical therapists, and a deep understanding of how bodies respond to stress, aging, and activity, Abbey guides clients through thoughtful sequences that prioritize clarity over force and awareness over performance. Her teaching emphasizes progressive layering and intelligent repetition, allowing the body to learn each shape, build confidence, and move with greater ease and fluidity over time.
With a background in long-distance running, Abbey understands the mindset of active, driven individuals—and the essential role mobility plays in longevity. She works primarily with private clients who value personalized care, including those who may feel intimidated by yoga but know they need mobility and intelligent strength to continue doing the activities they love.
Abbey is known for her precise sequencing, intuitive presence, and ability to meet people exactly where they are. Many describe her work as something they didn’t realize they needed until they felt the difference—leaving them feeling stronger, more capable, and more at ease both on and off the mat.
Testimonials
"I have to tell you I never meant any instructor who is more descriptive and precise than you! WOW!! YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST!! I appreciate all the love and hard work you put into your classes - its the best part of my day!!"
Trisha L, Westport CT
"Abbey is an extraordinary yoga teacher and guide. I have studied with her in the studio as well as by Zoom through Covid. She is well versed in many styles of yoga and has an ability to weave them together and create unique classes. Her knowledge of anatomy is also extensive. It allows her to provide classes that are accessible to any participant and safe for those who might have an injury or other limitation. She consistently provides the class that I didn’t know I needed. I am thrilled that we have the opportunity to share in this new evolution of her teaching."
Katy D, Black Rock CT
“Jay Wright, Villanova’s basketball coach, suggested I try hot Bikram Yoga for my chronic back issues. Met Abbey in 2016. Game changer. Now I carry my own bag when I play 18 holes. She will change your life.”
