“I first contacted Gwen after hearing a radio talk show psychologist discuss how beneficial yoga could be for the mind and body. After a year of practicing with her I can say that it has made a huge difference in my life. Yoga has proven itself for me in countless situations by reducing anxiety and helping to manage physical pain.

Those successes would not have been possible without Gwen. Gwen is the most caring and talented mentor any student could hope for! Her positive approach and energetic encouragement last from the start to finish of each session! There is no comparing of oneself to others in Gwen’s class. She genuinely advises every student to take only what they need from the practice, and allows us no shame when a pose is out of reach. Whether a novice or an advanced yogi, you will be welcomed into a class that helps reach your personal yoga goals.”
-Sara Fry from Apple Valley

"Gwen has a wonderful training style that you will have a hard time finding elsewhere. I know from experience ...since leaving the area and gym that I first met her at, I've been having "Gwen withdrawal"! Luckily, in the year I spent working with her, I learned so much and am grateful to her for that.
She has a way with talking you through the exercises so you can really visualize what you are doing, making her a wonderful trainer for a beginner. She is also really good at showing you how to get the most out of every exercise so if you are ready, you can take your training to the next level."
-Lisa from Minneapolis

-Jeff from St. Paul

"Gwen's personality adds a sense of playfulness to your yoga practice while staying grounded and focused. Gwen has been the catalyst to my addiction to yoga, and a more peaceful lifestyle!"
