Yoga Students

​

You have no idea how life-altering your instruction has been to me. I have spent a fortune on massage and physiotherapy, seeking a remedy for my ailing shoulder. It is only since participating in your yoga classes where I'm finally getting relief and seeing an improvement. I appreciate your kindness and thoughtfulness in tailoring your classes to your students' needs. ~ J.L.

​

Today’s class was one of the best yoga classes I have ever attended. You are a fantastic yoga teacher. ~ D.D.

​​

I came to Agi's classes several years ago in my search for alternatives to the "gym" workouts. I was so very happy to find in Agi an informed, supportive guide who offered what I had always believed – that yoga practice could be used to build strength and balance which can prevent injury. Wherever I have practiced with Agi she has created a safe and welcoming space. Agi is an engaging and supportive instructor who is extraordinarily well organized and prepared and who brings to her classes a deep knowledge of her subject and a deep commitment to her work. Her warmth, intelligence and compassion are gifts to her students. ~ M.G.

​

Your class has slowly but surely become an integral part of my life and I LOVE IT!  It slows me down enough to enjoy the journey more. Most of this transformation is thanks to you. I love your energy, your readings, and your calm confidence and perspective on things.  Thank you for just being you and sharing your light with me.  I feel blessed to be part of your classes. ~ C.P.​

​

I love my class with you. You are so thoughtful and caring when you encourage us to just do our very best. I brag to all my friends that I have the best teacher in the city. ~ D.L.​


I've thoroughly enjoyed and have benefited from your yoga classes and private yoga sessions. You are a truly gifted and inspirational teacher who has opened my eyes to the many benefits of incorporating yoga into everyday life. I'm so lucky to have met you, and look forward to taking part in many more classes under your beautiful and sage guidance. ~ D.I.​

 

I deeply appreciate your classes being available on zoom. Your teaching style and knowledge of the practice of yoga translates incredibly well for your students on zoom. I feel fortunate to experience your teaching. I always feel better after doing your class. Your teaching makes a positive difference in our lives in a challenging time in the world. ~A.D.

Private Yoga Therapy

​​

I have tried everything to “fix me” as an adult, from psychiatry, therapy, fitness and nature, still I was missing something. My therapist suggested yoga therapy and despite my scepticism, out of desperation I tried it and I’m so grateful and glad I did! From the moment I met Agi I felt a shift, it was easy to show up in the space Agi creates and let my guard down due to her kind, calm, safe energy. There has never been a time where I felt judged, unsafe or unwelcome. On the days I struggled she was still consistent in her safe energy and wanted to work with me…even when I felt I didn’t deserve it. There is something really powerful in healing somatically that regular therapy can’t fix. Within 3 sessions with Agi, I started to feel like I was humanizing again. I’ve struggled with post-concussion syndrome from IPV, and due to this I didn’t think I’d ever truly feel happy again, but for the first time since my injury I genuinely feel real joy and happiness all due to Agi and yoga therapy. Yoga therapy has totally changed my life for the better and has given me hope and I now look forward to my future. I highly recommend anyone who is struggling to try it. Even if you are sceptical and have “tried everything” like myself, I beg you to give this a try, I promise this will change your life for the better. I know this is just the start of my healing process but I’m so looking forward and am hopeful for the journey. ~L.P.

​

I receive the most wonderful sense of achievement because you always teach/guide in a way that reinforces the skills that I can do and does not 'punish' what I can't yet accomplish. I got a high five from my Doctor today. He said the combination of therapies had brought about these positive findings and praised my yoga attendance as a very beneficial change I have made to my lifestyle.  Thank you so much for being my teacher... I have learned so much from you and the positive reinforcement has been undeniably helpful. 

Workshops + Trainings

​

I cannot say how much I have learned and how much more I appreciate the benefits of yoga. I love the breadth of information you share with us and the pacing of the class. It makes you slow down and really work through all that you are asking us to feel and think about. I have a greater appreciation of how this practice contributes to build strength and resilience, as well as how to adapt as the body ages. I did my yoga teacher training about ten years ago and went on to do a number of different teacher training modules focused on the aging body with the intention of sharing what I learned. The more I learned, the more my respect and appreciation of really excellent teachers grew. You are one of the finest teachers I have worked with and I would love for more people to benefit from your wise and caring teachings.  ~ A.V.


Thank you so much Agi for an engaging and informative weekend! I look forward to every module I take with you to learn from your rich experience and also because I find it super inspiring how, no matter what the topic, you always consistently thread through the principles of yoga philosophy and ethics. And you do this not just in a factual way but by role modeling this consistent foundation in how you teach, what you teach, and how you interact with students and create a class container. It is a manner of teaching and of being that I aspire to exemplify as fluidly and naturally as you. Your willingness to be a resource and support as we move forward is also very generous and I am grateful for it! ~ A.S

​Her breadth of knowledge and experience was fantastic. The amount of information provided and the content was comprehensive and well-organized. ~ G.G.

​

I thoroughly enjoyed all six Joint Therapeutics workshops. I found them to be very useful and I started implementing both the
anatomical information and some of the relevant exercises into my yoga classes and yoga therapy session right away. Agi is an excellent facilitator. As an experienced yoga therapist she has a wealth of knowledge that she delivers with skill. Her workshops were well structured, planned and her handouts were clear, concise and very helpful. She’s also a lovely person! ~ R.N.
