12 years experience tutoring. I utilize manipulatives such as learning puzzles and interactive mobile apps. Multiple representations helps the student visualize the material and its real-world applications. I also edit essays, and have had med school applications accepted. I have had students go from B minus to A plus in their English writing assessments. I love helping people learn new skills, which in turn solidifies my own skills.

Balanced f/Life Yoga instructors and therapists are engaged with their clients, on many levels. I enjoy both yoga and bodywork because of Denise (owner) and her staff. They are beyond knowledgeable, in my opinion, they really are "Muscle Whisperers". Since my body is becoming better, I'm finding a desire to work on my mindfulness! Thanks BFL, you guys are awesome!!

Stef is an amazing instructor. She has well composed routines that vary each week to target new skills, but she also allows for her students to provide feedback as to what they may need targeted that week. As a beginner I feel supported by her, but encouraged to push myself to try skills that may seem more advanced, or beyond my comfort level. She is an immediately calming presence and welcomes you into the space with enthusiasm.
