Comfortable setting, clear instruction, inclusive. No goals -- we just focus on the moment at hand, improving one aspect of the pose at a time. Breathing is always a priority. The class is like a community. Everyone there is supportive. Instructor knows what she is doing and joins along.
I have been practicing off and on with Surya for about a year and I love attending her classes. I recommend her beginners alignment class if you are very stiff and not naturally flexible. I also enjoy restorative yoga Monday nights for a more relaxing class. Class sizes are small and you get individual attention. You can always drop in, but she offers a 5 and 10 class pass for a cheaper rate. Bring your own mat, but she has all other props you would need.
I have never tried yoga practice before and did not know what to expect. I took an opportunity to try out different forms of yoga as a beginner and the Alignment Yoga led by Surya caught my attention.
I am in my 50’s so I didn’t want something that might break my bones or twist my arms (pun intended!) At the same time, I just completed an advanced degree to become a mental health profession and finishing my final year in seminary to become a hospital chaplain. Surya walked with me in the self-discovery and self-compassion journey through our weekly Yoga practice. Alignment Yoga helped me to develop endurance, self-love, challenging my disbelief to self with kindness and acceptance. She taught me Yoga is more than physical exercise but a way of life; it is philosophical and spiritual deep within. Surya reminded all of us that we are on a journey and we create a safe environment for each other to continue this practice. It has been instrumental to my self-care in my profession and my personal life so that I would be emotionally available to my patients, families, and friends.
Surya helped me to realize I am able as long as I am willing to try and believe myself.
Love love love practicing yoga at Moksha Yoga. Surya watches her students closely to make sure you are correctly in positions. When she sees you are either having difficulty getting in a position or you are unable to do something she will modify or give you props to make sure you feel what you need in the position. She truly likes to get to know each student so she understands the level you are at and helps you get the most out of your practice.
Surya is the best! She’s an amazing, experienced, knowledgeable, sweet yoga instructor. She teaches all kinds of yoga, knows when to push you and when to back off. Her new studio is spacious, light, and peaceful with easy access and ample parking. Favorite class is aroma yin!💗
