Testimonials

We offer tremendous gratitude to our teachers, students, and clients who have put their trust in us, been vulnerable with us, laughed and cried with us, and taught us so much in the process! Thank you!

I will, of course, be renewing my subscription. Not all the classes work for me, given the time difference [student lives in London], but I love your classes - and when I say your classes, I really do mean the classes the two of you [Ingrid and Stephan] teach. Your teaching is in a different league to anything else I have ever experienced (and, although you can't tell from my practice, I've actually come across hundreds of yoga teachers in the last 30 years). It really doesn't cover it to say you are the best, because I feel your teaching is a qualitatively different experience, physically and emotionally.

I’ve tried lots of yoga studios on the upper west side and am very impressed with the clean and healthy space that Stephan and Ingrid have created. They teach many different forms of yoga and healing and understand how to work with whomever is in the room. I highly recommend this new studio to anyone wishing to begin exploring yoga, or who wish to find a safe and welcoming place to continue their practice.

I loved the class. It was familiar yet challenging. Ingrid had some interesting transitions, and her upbeat personality helped me to keep going even when my mind might have said take a break! I enjoyed her precise, clear and easy-to-follow instructions. I liked that she greeted us individually, i.e. those of us new to her. I loved her ability to create a safe trusting atmosphere in a really short time. I love the beautiful wood floor. I liked that the other students were just regular and nice folks. And I LOVED that Ingrid sang to us during savasana! I will definitely be back!

The teachers are so encouraging, patient, friendly, very hands-on. I am finally learning how to achieve correct postures!

After being hit by a car in NYC, I was told that I would have to have surgery to rebuild my knee. During the week I was in hospital (the day after the operation), I was introduced to Stephan, a gift from a friend. Unable to move my left leg and only finding relief from the pain via a self-administering morphine drip, Stephan introduced me to mindfulness techniques—we did in-bed yoga, he performed Reiki, used essential oils and taught me breathing exercises to help me sleep. The amazing thing was, after our first session, I felt calm. For the first time since the accident I wasn’t in pain or feeling sick from the medication. Stephan came back each afternoon. I looked forward to his visits. It is now 2 years later, and I continue to work with him weekly. He helped me so much with the extremely long process of rehabilitation both physically and mentally.

Each session is like a meditation and Ingrid helps you to connect your body and mind and to focus on your breathing in a way that gives you stability in everyday life. You feel patient and more calm. Ingrid is herself a most patient and calm teacher and pays attention to the smallest details and watches closely to be sure that the postures are practiced in the safest and most beneficial way. Every session is unique with different parts of the body receiving emphasis at different sessions. The class is designed for all levels. Beginners or experienced alike will all benefit.

I have known Stephan since my back surgery almost two years ago. He got me out of my misery and onto my path to recovery. Stephan is both a teacher and a healer. He understands the human body extremely well and never pushes students beyond their capabilities. Stephan is soft spoken, attentive and very aware of his students’ daily moods and progress. I continue to see him regularly to support my general health and wellbeing.
