“I have only recently joined your yoga group and will admit, initially I was rather apprehensive about joining a “traditional, experienced” yoga class.  I soon realized  that your approach is very supportive, individually paced, reassuring, and instructive in a way that is adaptable to each of us at our own level of experience.  I had not had years of yoga classes and do not consider myself an athletic or work-out guru, but I have  valued the opportunity to achieve more physical balance, stretching, mind-body connection, meditative consciousness, and holistic education. I appreciate that you are able to allow each of us to progress at our own pace, sensitive to our physical limitations.  I also appreciate the ability to improve my physical health in the calming and compassionate environment which you provide.  You have given us the added benefit of understanding why we do the things we do, what the physical benefits are for us,  which enables us to value the teaching  you provide.   Thank you!”
