“Rachel reminds us of the importance of taking a break from the daily grind and connecting with our inner self. She gives very fluent instructions for every pose and gives options of how to adapt the poses for our own comfort levels. Her harmonious nature and passion for yoga inspire me to push myself further each session. Rachel is a compassionate, skillful and inspirational teacher. I am looking forward to continuing on my yoga journey with her.”

“Rachel introduced me to yoga two years ago when I was stressed to the limit in my career and did not know where to turn. I had always been curious about yoga, but didn’t know where to begin. With Rachel’s help and guidance, I now have a steady practice. Yoga has taught me how to foster strength mentally, physically and spiritually. Rachel is a true expert in anatomy and physiology, and I appreciate her focus on proper alignment. She explains variations and adjustments perfectly, which is essential to my practice and continued learning. Rachel is patient and caring. She is a free spirit and her enthusiasm and warmth are infectiously motivating. I will practice yoga for the rest of my life. Thank you Rachel!”

“I have taken prenatal yoga classes with Rachel during the pandemic. I normally get bored during yoga and constantly look at my watch. With Rachel, classes are not only fun but doable. She is energetic and positive. I actually want to attend class! My arms have never been more toned and most importantly she assisted with turning my baby from a Frank Breech position to a normal one which I will always be thankful to Rachel for!! I consider Rachel an expert in prenatal yoga and recommend her hands down for all the expectant mommies out there.”
— Monica, Clinical Psychologist and Expectant Mom
“I love Rachel’s classes they are the highlight of my day. It has become sort of a ritual to attend her classes, which I go to whenever I can. she has impacted my life, body and mind in such a positive way. Even when I’m hesitant to show up because of the pain that I’m in, I always feel so much better after. You are an angel! Thank you for planning out the classes so carefully to really help us all. ”

“I found out my baby was breached at 37 weeks and was told Rachel was the person to call to get him to move naturally. I did a 1 hour zoom yoga class with Rachel and figured ben if he didn’t turn it was a great hour to have to myself and I’d get some exercise in! I went to the doctor 3 days later for an ultrasound and lo and behold my son had flipped on his own. Rachel was a miracle worker!”
— Jenny G., Expectant Mother
Best Yoga teacher I’ve ever had. Rachel is so in tune with herself and her students needs. She puts me at ease instantly and pushes me to be my best self. I love her New York energy and ambition. I highly recommend hiring her as your instructor if you are looking to be inspired and explore the depths of yourself.
