Students Say

“Yesterday was my first attempt at yoga in years and my first visit to BV. Needless to say, I was a bit nervous and didn’t know what to expect. From the moment I walked in, everyone was joyful and welcoming (very reassuring for a newbie!) As I entered the Power Yoga class, students and staff had an incredibly positive vibe towards one another & were genuinely curious how everyone’s day was, how they had been doing, and who the new folks were. Once class began, I felt relaxed and empowered. Leigh had such a great balance of peaceful and playful–I can’t wait to come again! Thank you!”
Anna Harwick

“I just wanted to thank you for the great power yoga class last Saturday. I was visiting from NY and really appreciated the personalized assistance during class and the welcoming environment. I travel all over north america for work and try to maintain my yoga practice when I’m on the road, leading to some interesting yoga classes (running from good, not so great, to downright weird – which at least give me some funny on-the-road stories). My experience at Bala was a really happy surprise. I will definitely be back the next time I’m in Naples.”
Ginny

“I’m happy to have found BV Yoga- location, times, teachers, and variety of styles are just right. I like how accessible it is for family and friends- all levels can participate.”
Laura Barnes

“I am grateful to have this many choices as I follow my body’s needs of the day.”
Pat Hasbrook

“I am just a part-time Naples resident, but each time I show up after months of being gone, I am made to feel so welcome.”
Becky Titmus

“Aside from the terrific yoga practices and teachers, your computer interface makes it so easy to register online, track classes, and keep up with what’s going on from a distance.”
Michele Shaw

“The atmosphere is very welcoming and calm. All the teachers are kind & inspiring.”
Linda Waterhouse

“I really love my experiences at BV and have met some wonderful people.”
Julie Chirichella

“I have enjoyed all of the workshops that I have attended. Always good energy and lots of laughs and sweat.”
Polly Wilder

“My first class at Bala Vinyasa Yoga was one of the most energizing, rejuvenating, and fun classes I’ve ever taken. I’ve loved the tempo, challenge, philosophical thoughts and encouragement, and the positive energy of the room.”
Leigh Dally

“The classes….are my stress relief. I feel wonderful and charged for several days afterward.”
Jennifer Landis

“Kiersten- many, many “thank yous” for the wonderful workshop on Saturday! You are an incredible teacher with a true gift for guiding your students with ease and love. Now we’re back in California and I have been thinking about the “Laws” a great deal and feel at once centered and “rocked” by their ideas. Even though they are ideas I’ve heard and read before, for some reason they really resonated with me this weekend. (Sometimes, I guess, one has to be truly open to really hear something in order to make change!) Additionally, you have a lovely studio and mother too! With much gratitude and blessings,”
Jill Eldridge

“I just wanted to let you know how pleased I was to have had the chance to practice at your studio. I was there this time last year, when you had just opened. I love seeing the yoga community growing and extending out to new people. Being a teacher, it is always nice to explore new studios and hear new voices. Thanks for the inspiration. I look forward to our visit next March and coming back to BV yoga. With love and respect,”
