After a couple of years in your classes and experiencing the results, there is no doubt your “less is more” approach was tremendously beneficial for me. At first I was skeptical that deceptively simple movements would improve my issues. I figured I would do a week of gentle yoga and then move up to the next yoga “level”. Little did I know, there was no need to “move up” to get benefits. I always thought your guidance/suggestions were spot on. The instructions were flexible enough (no pun intended) to work for a studio of folks with diverse needs.

I noticed that the combo of what I did during the day and what we did in class in the evening really helped alleviate the discomfort I was experiencing. One thing I found really interesting was how relaxed I felt after class, and it really got me exploring the idea of ease. I’ve noticed that in order for me to have “good posture” I have to constantly hold a lot of tension in my body. I am wondering if it’s worth holding that tension in order to look “ good” vs feel ease. I really like the idea of moving in a comfortable easy range to create a sense of safety.
