STUDENT REVIEWS |
"The regular study of Iyengar yoga with Nadine has changed my body significantly. As someone with severe osteoarthritis, I have experienced a significant reduction in pain and an increase in strength, joint mobility and flexibility. Iyengar yoga affords me the opportunity to work carefully, deeply and consciously with a teacher-guide who continually brings me to the fullness of yoga."

"Before I started an Iyengar yoga practice, I suffered from chronic migraine headaches and neck pain. Yoga has eliminated my pain and discomfort. My posture has improved and I even grew an inch!"

“As a runner, I have found my practice of
yoga has helped prevent the injuries I used to get from 20 years of
pounding the pavement. I am more flexible and incorporate yoga poses into
my daily routine...if only I had started yoga when I was 35 instead of
55! Although I've tried different styles of yoga, I have found Iyengar
yoga to produce the best results.”

"The focus of Iyengar yoga on how to do each pose correctly has helped me to successfully do a pose without injuries or pain. Iyengar yoga teaches one how to do the pose correctly in stages so I can start small, build a strong base and then try the next step of the pose. I can slowly learn a pose and learn modified ways of doing a pose so that I can feel successful. In this way it has helped to strengthen my muscles (especially in my back). Another benefit I have found from the yoga is its ability to calm and relax me, thus reducing my stress and it seems to have helped to improve my over all health."
Nadine Sims is an excellent teacher of Iyengar Yoga. Some of the benefits of doing yoga with her are:
1. She teaches the proper alignment for each pose
and explains why it is important to do it properly.
2. She teaches modifications for each pose so that anyone can be successful
in each pose.
3. Keeps the focus on the yoga during class time so that you also keep
your focus on the yoga.
4. Knows her students physical limits and teaches you how to be successful
in a pose within your limits.
5. Teaching style is caring, direct, and informative.
6. Creates a calm, caring, focused atmosphere in her classes."
