Testimonials

“Yoga brings me a dignity of carriage as well as physical strength. I can walk into any place and feel like I belong. Or, if I’m not comfortable, I have the strength of mind to say to myself, ‘No, let’s go.’”

- Exhale to Inhale Student

“My yoga practice gave me the compassion and release I needed to begin loving myself enough to take control of my life.”

- Exhale to Inhale Student

“Been a while since I've done yoga and I love your approach about doing what feels right for our bodies, rather than one ‘right’ way. Language like ‘you might’ or ‘try exploring’ was super helpful, and I'll use that language to be more mindful and kind to what my body is capable in the future! Left the session feeling more in tune with myself and aware of my surroundings.”

- Exhale to Inhale Student

“The teacher was an excellent teacher, reminding us to ground and feel the textures under our hands and feet. The overall effect of this session helped me feel my body and honor what came up.”

- Exhale to Inhale Student

“After the trauma I had experienced, my body closed down. The practice of yoga physically helped me but also using the breath to really spread the stability has been night and day.“
