Jay B. says, "Paula Allen is an excellent teacher for the arts. Within a few sessions, she assisted my daughter to bring out her creativity and channel the same into a portfolio for entrance into Magnet High School program for the Arts. My daughter's skills were enhanced, expanded and focused. Paula assisted her greatly. I believe Paula helped my daughter bring out her talents in such a way that it helped her greatly in her audition to her school. I believe this experience increased my daughter's self-confidence.

Jessica says, "I’m relatively new to meditation but have found tremendous value in the practice of it to help with my depression & anxiety. I’ve been practicing with A-V Meditation for around 10 months now, and the instruction I receive has been life changing, truly. The content is appropriate based on student level and grows with the students as they grow and advance in their own practice. I enjoy the variety of meditations, the remote option (due to COVID this is especially nice), the flow of the practice, and working with a meditation instructor that truly values the practice.

Asana, Prana Yama and Mindfullness are my passion. I am a daily practitioner of many of the limbs offered on classical yoga lineage as well as Shaivite Tradition. I've been praying giving Limbs of yoga for over 11 years and teaching for three and a half. I love sharing the gifts that Yogas Limbs bring to one's life. I enjoy helping people gain a greater sense of calm, alignment in the physical body, a gentler approach to mindfulness, and assisting one's journey on this life path....

The instructor was great. Great instructions, calm demeanor, reassured us that pain was not the goal. I have been to many yoga studios where the instructor is condescending and complementary only of the most advanced students. I appreciated St. Petersburg Yoga’s approach!
