Testimonials
“I keep coming back because Emily teaches with such ease, composure, and knowledge. She is incredibly positive which is wonderful in those particularly humbling yoga moments. I truly love that after years of practicing with her, I find myself learning new things and developing each week.”
-- Elise W., student since 2013
“I had taken several yoga classes with different instructors, with different friends, in different styles, and none of them felt as natural and intuitive as when I first took a class with Emily.”
-- Kevin C., student since 2012
"After 20 years of doing yoga, Emily is the first instructor I've found who made it cool to not do poses. She offered options for less advanced practitioners and those who would rather not do certain poses, and I never felt forced into doing something that felt bad for my body. She is really attentive and conscious of different abilities."
