KIND WORDS

  • “...Every single person not only loved her style of teaching, but they also all loved her as a human being. She is kind, open hearted, very flexible and well traveled. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to any retreat host looking to hire a yoga teacher on an international retreat.”
