YogaNorma

Thank you Norma for your wonderful classes! I would recommend Norma's yoga classes because she really cares about each student and that is so important! I absolutely feel stretched and reset after every yoga class, especially because I am often hunched over my computer. All these pains are eased when one attends Norma's yoga classes. Her classes are really just special!

Norma is the best yoga teacher I have ever had! I have very bad knees and in just a few classes with Norma I feel stronger. She pays attention to the each student. I enjoy her humor, and it is clear why she has such loyal students that have been with her for decades. I wish I had found Norma earlier because her class has benefitted me so much. The class is tailored to each student's needs and I look forward to the days that I have class with Norma!

Norma is and excellent teacher. After a few sessions my back pain had reduced significantly and my overall functional strength improved. She has a gentle manner and will meet you where you are, always stressing that everyone is different and you practice is a personal journey. She notices if a pose is not working for you and suggest alternative. Her classes have been a lifesaver. The studio also is lovely.

Norma's Iyengar based classes not only stretch and strengthen my body, they create a focus and calm for my mind. I've been studying with Norma for more nearly 20 years and what I appreciate most is that the class size allows Norma to know the individual abilities/needs of each participant. We use props (the four B's -- belts, blankets, blocks, and bolsters) to help us achieve each of the asanas (positions) -- when needed. No two classes are the same. There is no set routine. Progression of positions is always different. For me, that's a good thing. So is Norma!

I have studied with Norma since 1993. She is a fantastic teacher who gives clear instructions and always helps students adapt to the more difficult poses. I have gradually learned a great deal about how my body and mind work very much together. Her Iyengar training is quite evident in the classes. She varies the poses each week and is constantly sharing new ways of getting to old positions. I'm never bored in her class. Also, she has a wry sense of humor which I really love. I highly recommend Norma's yoga classes for beginner and advanced student alike.
