“This is a great opportunity to be aware and focus on all single parts of the practice (e.g. breathing, flow, posture). I liked that each pose was explained step by step and we took time to learn and repeat. I loved that everyone was very focused on self-practice and the environment was not competitive at all. I’m 100% satisfied.”

“I expected the course to be so fast and difficult that I wouldn’t be able to follow it properly. But it was a great deal better than I expected. I really like the speed and detail-orientated instruction, making it easy to follow. It’s perfect for beginners and Karen is wonderful with beginners as she is thorough and patient and really pays attention to every person. I noticed how much better I felt after every session, I felt happy and relaxed deep down. As if I was walking on a beach somewhere far away and not on the busy streets of Lucerne.”

“Clear instructions and breakdown of poses. Good infrastructure/ light and airy room. I’m motivated enough to continue Ashtanga yoga and definitely recommend the course. Cheryl de Valliere. I was surprised how the breathing worked out and how good I felt afterwards. Not just physically but mentally too. I felt more flexible and had more energy throughout the week. I felt able to concentrate on other tasks at work better than usual. The course ticked all the boxes, I’d recommend it to others, it’s worth the commitment.”

“Karen brings an air of calm and serenity into the room and she gently encourages us to develop our yoga practice to the best of our abilities. I love the relaxing feeling I have at the end of my class. I recommend Karen’s classes to anyone with a busy lifestyle.”

“Karen puts effort into getting to know the level you’re at and supporting you to improve every lesson. My strength, energy and overall wellbeing are so much better since I’ve been going to the classes.”

“She is also flexible with her schedule and always does her best to work around the schedule of her client. Before I started yoga with Karen I was stressed which affected other areas of my life. Through Karen’s yoga sessions I was able to improve my situation with noticeable differences in my confidence and stress levels. Karen has also enable me to practice yoga alone in a more confident manner. I highly recommend Karen as a very knowledgeable, professional and friendly yoga instructor.”
