Darcy P. says, "Julie was great! I was new to yoga and she helped me feel comfortable right away. It was easy for me to understand. I have bad knees and had to sit on a chair. There were a few others that did also. It made me feel comfortable that I was able to modify based on what my body could do. I have been taking weekly classes now for the past few months and feel great about it." Read more

This is very pleasing to me because I like to have options and learn about variations that I can use to make my personal experience a fulfilling one." Read more

Exactly the kind of yoga I need. Monica is a thoughtful, caring and mindful instructor. Of course I'm a huge fan, but I've not found any other teacher that I would go back to after taking her yoga classes.
