Testimonials

“As a newcomer to yoga I was surprised to learn how the awareness I gained in my body during yoga class stayed with me later into the day. I was able to catch myself holding my breath and tensing my shoulders at home and at work. Renee is a great teacher!”

“I never realized how I wasn’t able to take a deep breath, and it wasn’t until I did a yoga therapy session that I was able to realize I was holding memory and fear from my accident in my stomach. After I realized this, I was able to feel my breath move into this area.”

-Carol V

“I enjoy Renee’s calm, intuitive nature and love that you check in with me to see what would be beneficial for me to work on that day.  Prior to attending my sessions with Renee my posturing and focus was not strong.  Working one on one has been super beneficial in helping me connect my mind and body, be stronger in both mind and body, be stronger with the poses and really feel the benefits of the yoga that I do. I always look forward to my sessions and how rejuvenated I feel afterwards! “
