“I took classes from Charlene for 8 years, easily the best instructor that I’ve ever worked with! Charlene knows the intricacies of the poses so well and can help you adjust so that you truly learn to do them correctly, which led to a lot fewer injuries and much more strengthening than I’d seen in previous courses. I always left class feeling restored, both mentally and physically, ready to take on the world again!”

“…I have been in classes with Charlene teaching both novice and experienced people as well as some who have limitations due to either age or medical issues. She is very good at understanding individual limitations to be able to provide adaptations so that everyone in the class is pushed to their best effort in a safe and effective way. She does not allow you to slack off, but she pushes just the right amount with humor. Her classes are both effective and fun. “

“I love Charlene’s classes because each class works on different parts of the body, and the exercises are a combination of ones you have done before and ones that are more difficult and push you to advance. The class is never repetitious but builds on what you have learned previously. It has kept me limber and has done that without pain. I continue to progress even though I am a senior citizen, that progress gives me a huge mental lift. Now that I am retired, Yoga has changed me. I am still very competitive but I am far more 'laid back' and enjoy my life more.”

“… I find Charlene’s practice to be very healing, both physically and emotionally. She has taught me how to honor what my body can do on any particular day. She has been able to help me modify my practice to allow me to continue yoga after I sustained injuries in a car collision. It is remarkable how practicing with Charlene has helped me tune into what my body needs, and to celebrate incremental, but important, progress in my abilities.”

“Charlene has made such a positive influence in my practice. I have been able to achieve levels within yoga I never knew existed & have been able to translate to personal practice. I thank her for her guidance!”
