"Liz is not only a fantastic teacher but a wonderful human being! Every time I take a class with her, I am touched by her generosity of spirit and her undeniable passion for all things yoga. It's very inspiring! It's also been a huge confidence booster to think that I now have the skills and knowledge to provide such a profoundly healing practice for others! "
Camila Castro
"Liz has a lovely calm manner of both teaching and practicing. Her approach with a combination of theory and practice was a great way of learning. The section on brain waves and brain patterns was fascinating. I feel a lot of the power yoga can be explained by neuroscience and it is beneficial as a teacher to have the science to back up what you are teaching."

"Liz, made this course so compelling even in a virtual format. Thank you, Liz!!! I am so thankful to have access to all that we've learned so I can revisit and continue working on my practice skills."

"I absolutely loved this course and all the wisdom and personal / professional experience that Liz was sharing, her wonderful meditations and somatic exercises. I am impressed by Liz' wisdom and her professionalism and love her presence and kindness. This was a wonderful mixture of learning & practicing. "
Sabine Lindemann
"I truly loved everything about this course, especially the somatic practices. The way the information unfolded holistically has been so fulfilling! I’ve been so isolated this past year, it was a delight to be able to share with a group, even if it wasn’t in person! The lectures were full of well presented information; the slides and handouts built on what was presented, and the resources and reading lists have also been very helpful. I love Liz’s gentle voice and the delightful use of words."
