What clients have to say about Soundness with Sayde Yoga
Participating weekly in Sayde’s yoga therapy classes before and after two knee replacements prepared me for the surgeries through muscle strengthening and increased my success in healing afterward. Sayde’s positive, informative approach continues to increase my flexibility and brings my mental and emotional well-being back to center.
My very first class with Sayde made it clear that this was something VASTLY different from, and so much more than, yoga at the gym. It is a workout for my body and a powerful centering for my mind and spirit. After 14 years of practicing with Sayde, I have witnessed her craft countless lesson plans on the spot to address the individual needs of a room full of people. She has an uncanny ability to look at you and know what your body needs – often before you know yourself!
Having lived with chronic discomfort from scoliosis, I only came to yoga because I had heard of the benefits for mental and emotional calmness. I began attending group yoga after an introduction in a family therapy session. In addition to the calm, I have found her attention to my physical condition has led to decreased pain, increased range of motion and an alleviation of discomfort that I am able to sustain for longer periods of time as my practice continues.
Sayde has lessened my need for ibuprofen by alleviating stress in shoulders and low back, and helped to make me more flexible. I feel more wholesome and aware as I continue to practice.
Sayde is a vibrant and incredibly talented teacher. She genuinely cares for her students. She’s great at adapting to the needs of her students and accommodating any injuries or physical impairments. Her style of teaching is holistic and gentle. I greatly enjoy every class.
I have attended sessions for approximately 20 years. Sayde has helped me reduce my stress and anxiety level. Through the years, I have also seen alleviation of age and injury-related joint pain in shoulders and hips.
Sayde has helped me with my pain management with my shoulders. Before I started yoga with her, on a scale of 10, my pain was regularly a 7. After attending weekly, it is down to a 2 or 3. I highly recommend her expertise and experience.
