"I have taken yoga classes off and on for many years. I found that it was very difficult to find an instructor who was a serious student of yoga and who embraced the physical and spiritual unity of this discipline. It has always been a source of fascination for me and I am delighted to have found Carol's class.
In the 2 months I have taken Carol's class one of the most amazing things I experienced was how I recovered from a fall I took on our front sidewalk. Normally, I would be miserable for days (or weeks). I anticipated the worst, but found I was feeling fine in a day or so with no stiffness or aches.
After I take a class, that night I sleep like a baby. I'm getting better at continuing my practice at home.
I love the pace of the classes and the TLC Carol gives us. She has created an extremely comfortable and welcoming environment. Her humor brings a sense of ease for her students though it's obvious she is serious about her instruction."

"I like it because I have a hard time taking time for
myself and relaxing without everyday interruptions.
The benefits for me have been that I am more calm and
not easily upset by things that are a waste of energy.
It has given me a new outlook on life.
When I come to yoga, I feel at peace.
I particularly like Carol's method of teaching. She
has a warm personality that makes everyone feel
welcomed and comfortable.
I'm working on incorporating yoga with my everyday
living. If something bothers me, I focus on my
breathing and try to just let it go. I'm expecting my
first child, a definate life-changing experience that
will play with my emotions and I feel that yoga will
be a big part of keeping me focused and be able to
enjoy this wonderful addition to my life.
Thank you Carol! ~~Kristan

"I think you do an excellent job of balancing the practice with challenges, and beneficial but not difficult postures. And you are very good at describing and showing the subtleties of the postures. I always am trying to talk people into taking your classes! And I highly recommend yoga for people trying to live with ADD. Thanks Carol!

"The weekly yoga classes are a retreat from the "real" world that is outside and around us, so we can get to the "real" world that is inside us. It gives me a rare quiet and peaceful respite. The classes help me to get back in touch with the very simple connections within myself and with the world around me.
I look forward to waking up every morning and putting my two feet on the floor and embarking on whatever will happen on the given day, looking forward to experiences it will bring, challenging or pleasant. I wake up on Saturday mornings at the same time as weekdays with a special energy knowing that I'll be spending part of the morning at yoga. Yoga on Saturday mronings is my weekly "church". It fulfills me in the same way. I like the inner peace from meditation, the tingling throughout the body from the breathing and stretching and strength building, the feeling of community and connection with everyone in the room, though I don't know most of their names.
Physically, it stretches and limbers the body. Emotionally, it grounds me and helps me get in touch with the beauty of the moment. Spiritually, it connects me to those around me in the room, to those in life who I love, and to those who are no longer with me physically, like my son. Since I began taking yoga over a year ago, I feel a stronger sense of inner peace, an ability to better integrate the death of my son, into the changed person I have been forced to become as a result of his death.
It's a great feeling. I feel relaxed, at peace, ready to move through the next week. ~~Paul

"The classes are great! Carol takes us through each routine in a thoughtful, step-by-step approach that helps me to deeply feel each position, have compassion on my muscles, and raises my overall awareness of being "in" my body. I now find myself recognizing tension in my muscles sooner, and taking steps to release stress at the early stages, rather than waiting til I'm "bound up" with tension!
I feel excitement over learning a new skill, and a growing sense of calm each class. I particularly like the challenging asanas, which for me are any back-strengthening pose. I had no idea how weak my back was! But now I'm noticing fewer "twinges" and less lower back pain.
I come to yoga to release tension & build strength, but I also find myself treasuring this as a scheduled quiet space in my week. Yoga is a great blend of physical, mental & emotional exercise! It is truly meditation in motion. ~~Pam C.
