Handel Group
At a pivotal moment, Lauren Zander of the Handel Group significantly shifted my terms of engagement with my work and my family. The Handel methodology is taught to students at MIT and Stanford Business School, top executives at AOL, Vogue and Sony Music, and has effectively helped me actualize an affirmation I’d been given years back: “I will do work that I love, surrounded by gifted, committed people, and live the life of my dreams.” Creating yoga sequences with the Handel Group, combining asana with coaching work, is a privilege; this work brings more stability and truthfulness to our lives off the mat. It’s an honour to be empowering people to move beyond self-limiting concepts and behaviors in order to clarify and achieve their dreams.

Douglas Brooks
Scholar of Hindu Tantrism and Professor of Religion, Dr. Douglas Brooks demonstrates by example that you will grow in your understanding to the extent that you ask. Those who’ve sat nearby and listened to Douglas have been touched by a long lineage of Tantric scholars. While existing as everyday citizens in the eyes of their communities in India, these masters studied and contemplated the ancient texts of the Tantric traditions from a perspective that espoused recognition, inclusion and choice rather than obligation, patently relevant to our existence today. Douglas teaches me that the invitation of yoga is to choose my boundaries and refine my experience of freedom. “What do you want? That question is the gift you give to yourself. Absorb that gift into your heart until it is a deeply personal experience.” -Dr. Douglas Brooks

Hugo Cory
When I met Hugo in 2000, I was already teaching yoga, yet deeply discontented within myself. After working with him for more than a decade, I can claim more clarity, cohesiveness, and connection to my intuition. Hugo is now working with corporations to clearly articulate their purpose. “We help the head (leadership), body (organization), and heart (purpose) cooperate in a way that is efficient, effective, and in harmony with the natural laws of commerce. The result is the difference between thriving and merely surviving.”

William Ng
Geographically highly desirable for me (TriBeCa, on lower Broadway), Dr. Ng was recommended by a dear friend as a fourth-generation real-life Chinese doctor. His reasonably-priced treatments are no-nonsense true healing sessions; after 45 minutes on his table I’m re-calibrated and thoroughly reorganized.

Abdi Assadi
Abdi is an old friend, a gifted writer and extraordinary healer. His acupuncture treatments are highly intuitive and expeditious, and his book, Shadows on the Path, is a favorite.

Pamela Miles
Pamela certified my hands in Reiki Levels I/II. Most inspiring is her unwavering dedication to bring Reiki into medical settings, bringing healing to new heights. Pamela’s book accessibly explains self-treatment so all of us can experience healing Reiki on a daily basis.

Danny Kalatsky
Charged with seemingly sacred humility, Danny’s treatments always yield a feeling of symmetry and balance. His work to open clearer pathways in the body brings a connection to such potent quiet in my body after he’s done his work.

Brad Teasdale 
Brad’s work is subtle and profoundly healing. He is a student of Nature in the most authentic sense, bringing his understanding of Ayurvedic massage and herbal healing to his treatments. He’s now practicing and teaching at Virayoga, educating us in the subtleties of herbs, nutrition, and self-care.

Zach Dacuk
Through his extensive study with Tom Myers, Zach has refined his use of the KMI approach to free accumulated binding and shortening in connective tissues. He re-educates the body in efficient, energizing patterns. We teach workshops together whenever we can, and whenever I’m injured, he’s the first call I’ll make.

Scott Schwenk
Scott helped me relate to my breathing in a way that shifted my yoga practice and teaching. In just a few sessions, his simple, practical work gave me a taste of freedom I’d never known in my body, clearing the way for deepening asana and meditation ever since.

Patricia Moreno
Plain and simple, my postnatal recovery can be attributed to three things: diligent breastfeeding, sporadic yoga, and Patricia Moreno’s Great Body, Great Life DVD. She fearlessly teaches us how to actually, verbally articulate self-respect and self-love, and once you’ve done her work, you can never look negatively on yourself in the same way, ever again.
