Client Testimonials- 

"I signed up for personal yoga coaching sessions with Sandy hoping to improve my yoga (asana) practice, but I am getting so much more. I am learning how to structure my asana practice and sequence for the populations I plan to teach, while practicing in a friendly, and relaxing environment. What initially began with developing my yoga practice with Sandy has expanded to include mediation and learning to play the Djembe drum. (fabulous) Not only is this both fun and challenging but Sandy’s direct feedback for improving my yoga and  drumming is invaluable. She has a calm and logical method of teaching that truly connected and inspired me. I can’t speak highly enough of Sandy.  - Christine T.

"I have received so much value from Sandy's yoga classes - both group and private. She is a compassionate and skilled instructor with great intuition. It is amazing to learn from her as she shares openly and is like a gift that keeps on giving as she knows so much more than yoga. She is so helpful in aiding me in my own personal wellness path." - Kimberley K.

"Learning to play the djembe was supposed to be a diversion during the pandemic.  But then I found Sandy and my interest in the drum became a call to the drum.  What started as simple lessons in boom-tap-touch has become a practice of self-care; drumming with Sandy has attuned me to my own inner rhythms and awakened me to the rhythms and energy that surround and connect us all.  The high I get drumming with her carries me through the week--I practice on my drum, I drum on the steering wheel, I even paradiddle on the dog while she’s sitting in my lap.  I found my boom! - Maria L.
