I have primarily taken the Kundalini yoga classes, as I really am drawn to that practice right now, it is like my weekly church. But, I have also taken yin yoga classes and they both stretched and restored. Highly recommend! Try her classes out yourself.

The…read moreinstructors have been lovely and over-all very positive experience with the studio and the classes I have taken. However, I would strongly advise AGAINST attending their T-groups. I will explain why: These are not lead by licenses therapists, however are intended for interpersonal problems to insure. That feels problematic in itself. Additionally, because the facilitators are not licenses therapists, there are no ethical code they legally need to abide by. What became worse was when it was revealed that the facilitator, Nasiem, turned out to be roommates and friends with one of the participants in the group. So, when there became an interpersonal issue between me and her friend/rommate, Nasiem was not a neutral party. I did reach out to Nasiem to discuss my concerns and she had the opportunity to respond to me but but I never head back from her. Because of this, I did not return to group. I feel comfortable calling out this situation and this facilitator in particular because I gave her the opportunity to connect with me and for whatever reason she did not. Would highly advise against the T-groups. Please reach out to me if you would like more information on my experience. I am happy to share.

Great teacher and class, I would recommend Heather to anyone seeking to build on their yoga…read morepractice. To give some background, I've been doing yoga on and off for several years. Mainly off, because I kept getting injured from various poses I was not ready for. I started thinking I wouldn't ever progress to a higher level other than beginner because of this. I decided to give yoga one more try and I'm extremely glad I did. Enter: Heather's Iyengar beginner's series. I had read several reviews before signing up with Heather because many classes I've taken go for the 'let the students learn on their own' way of doing things, which is what led to my yoga induced injuries in the first place. So I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from the class. I can tell you right now that I am blown away at the amount of progress I've made over the past 2 months. Coming from a competitive sports background I used to scoff at props to help one get into certain poses because I figured they were for people who 'couldn't handle it'. I've since learned to put my ego aside and use all the props I can, because they're extremely useful for getting into the poses so that you can develop into them through consistent practice. After several weeks I can now do a shoulder stand without feeling like I'm going to topple over! And this is coming from someone whose sense of balance is not very strong. I recently went to another studio since I wasn't able to attend Heather's normal class time - it was like I was on another level with my own awareness; how far to push myself, how my alignment was set, and whether or not to use a prop or variation of an asana in order to move forward with the class. I felt a huge sense of accomplishment because of the awareness that Heather's practice taught me. Heather is funny, down to earth, and passionate about her teaching. I feel very relaxed in her class and everyone is there to learn. I don't know if it's me being self conscious but some other studios I've been to people have their attention more on each other rather than themselves. Not like that here at all, so there was no need to be self conscious. Because of the progress I've made, I have a new passion for learning more about yoga that I never thought I would have.

I'm knocking one start off because I felt the instructor took too much time explaining how to setup whereas I've enjoyed yin classes elsewhere where the experience was more seamless.

Jess is a wonderful teacher and she really takes time to know her students/clients. She also goes around the room and modifies poses depending on how advanced of a student you are. I started off with the Beginner Series, which was a great intro to yoga. I've tried all the scheduled classes and my favorites are the rope, Iyengar and vinyasa. TIPS - parking across the street in a lot (look for the yellow Tree of Life Yoga Clients signs) - buzz to be let into the building; studio is all the way to the back and up the gray wooden stairs - get the 10 class pass for $140...worth it! Each class is 1.5 hours and there's usually no more than 8-10 per class. I've been in some classes where there were under 5 people - if you want to get in a rope class, reserve a month in advance (seriously) If you're even thinking about trying this place, DO IT. I promise you won't regret it!

I was impressed that, in our first class together, he was able to create a space safe enough for that level of opening. Over the years I have followed him to Ojas Yoga in El Cerrito, where the small classes and quiet atmosphere created space for an even more introspective practice. And I have worked with him one-on-one to deepen my personal practice both in my home and in his. James is always thoughtful, patient, and considerate with his students, making accommodations for their unique physicality and their own depth of practice. When I got pregnant, he continued to welcome me and was determined to learn more about prenatal forms of yoga as my belly progressed. I always know I'll get a lot out of his classes, whether I can do each pose or not. Thank you James!
