TESTIMONIALS

Thank you Yoga Center of Cape Cod
     I started yoga because of a medical diagnosis that meant I needed help with my immune system. I was hoping yoga would help keep my numbers stable. As long as I have no symptoms there is no need for treatment. 
     However, after 2 months of yoga, 3 times a week, I was pleasantly surprised to find my numbers actually dropped! I never dreamed that I might be able to reverse the upward climb.
     Thanks to yoga, I no longer Fear the next series of testing. I am looking forward to my personal challenge of maintaining the healthy self for as long as possible. oommmmmmm.....

 

 

Comments from recent survey....

...regarding the studio in general:

~You have a beautiful studio, I take a lot of classes all over and yours is still my favorite. I feel that your teachers are well trained. and I'm in good hands in your studio. I can't wait for summer

~Don't stop. Keep going. I love your classes and everything about the studio. REALLY like hearing the instructors give positive feedback about other classes and techniques in the studio.

~Lovely well run studio that is a joy to be a part of! Like the special events and workshops too.

~I appreciate the variety at the center now that Lynette has owned it. There is something for everyone. It also has the feel of being our own little community, a nice sense of belonging.

~I don't think about going to other studios at this point because I think that the schedule, the classes and the instructors are all wonderful. Also, I love that I can pay a monthly fee for practice. I would not be able to take so many classes otherwise due to the expense. Thanks Lynnette for doing such a beautiful job with the CC Yoga Center - you have managed it wonderfully and very professionally as well.

~Praise for the decor, the cleanliness, the dark, the heat - all conducive to relaxation.

~thank you for your dedication to the studio. Your willingness to listen to your students and incorporate their feedback is impressive

~I love it!


...favorite class:

~I'm new to yoga with an extremely limited range of experience, but I like Hot Yoga. I was unsure at first, but the class is so sensorial unique that your focus rarely leaves the room of your own body

~My favorite is the restorative yoga. I feel so healthy and relaxed after. I sleep the best after too.

~I like them all. I like power, hatha, vinyasa...I like moderate to challenging classes because I like a good "physical" workout as well as spiritual connection

~Bikram-26 postures; know what I am getting into when I come to a Bikram class; can measure my progress.

~I prefer the hot yoga classes. Detoxifying and cleansing.

~I enjoyed the Restorative Yoga class best so far.

~hot anything. Cleansing. Free. Great.

~all, esp. sacred music I like the quiet, the soothing music after a busy day to be able to focus inward and shake off the day.

~gentle, I am not very flexible so I like a slower pace

~I enjoy the Jivamukti (Bristol) class, the moderate flow (Carrie), the level 2 class, the silent and the new Yin Yoga classes (Ann)

~I LOVED all of them. The Bikram was super challenging for me, a new yoga lover. And the gentle yoga was just right for me.

~Hot Yoga - probably because I am most familiar with it. I like the heat (I can't believe I'm actually saying that, as it was once inconceivable to me that I could stay in a heated room for 90 mins much less exercise in it.)

~sacred music. I can work at whatever level feels best for me, the silence is a great end to the day full of auditory overload!

~sacred music; I like to work on my technique by myself

~I like the heat. My age prevents me from the kinds of exercises that used to encourage sweating - like running 


...favorite instructor:

~I prefer Ann's classes because they are very challenging and work deeper into the connective tissue. The challenge helps to advance my practice. I also like the very detailed anatomical instruction she gives, as I both learn something and feel she very conscious about injury prevention. The only slight drawback is that sometimes it's too much information & talking, as I like some silent reflection too. I like Lynnette's classes if I want more of a relaxing practice that isn't as strenuous as Ann. Lynnette has a very nice uplifting teaching style, with a good balance of instruction and silence

~All instructors have been great. It is difficult to choose one I feel very fortunate in having a group of instructors who are so dedicated and compassionate.

~Of the classes that I have taken, all the instructors that I have had are great. Lynnette, love her energy ,calmness and the flow of her class. Bristol's class is a challenge, I'm happy when it's over, we work hard, but I love it, gets me out of my box. The woman that had a baby and does Bikram {Megan}, gives a wonderful class, lots of great encouragement during the class to go further. I only discovered her at the end of last summer, I hope to do her class more often.

~Ann. She has a deep understanding of the body and how it works.

~Maureen. She is just so friendly and open and very knowledgeable

~Lynette, she is so easy to be around and her love of yoga is contagious. Carrie is also an excellent teacher, with great focus. Ann's enthusiasm is fun. Bristol is a yogini from the inside out.

~Carrie, calm soothing voice but also simple and direct I'm able to understand even if I don't hear the words

~I like taking them all it depends on my mood

~I have only taken classes with a few instructors so far so this me not be a completely fair review. I love Ann since she works us very hard and has really helped me with my form. I love Carrie since she is a wonderful instructor, very challenging and very calm and spiritual. Bristol is another amazing instructor - very talented, spiritual, and inspirational. She also has a very challenging class.

~I have mostly taken Anne's classes because they fit my schedule and because I feel I learn something new in every class. As she learns, we learn.

~I like the diversity of the instructors. everyone has their own style!

~all of you. each have your nice ways about you. I learn from all of you.

 

 

 

Dragonfly 
Dragonflies are very ancient. They have a beautiful, jewel-like coloring. The bright colors take time to develop, reflecting the idea that with maturity our own true colors come forth. They are very fast moving and able to twist, turn, hover, move up or down, change directions in an instant, and even fly backwards. In early life (nymph) they live in water, then they go through a metamorphosis and move into the realm of air. They are always found around water. They represent change, illusion, magic, adaptability, and lightness. Life is never quite the way it appears, but it is always filled with light and color. The dragonfly reflect and work with sun and light. The dragonfly undergo their own transformations. 

Dragonfly can help you see through your illusions and thus allow your own 
light to shine forth. Dragonfly brings the brightness of transformation and the 
wonder of colorful new vision.
