You don’t drop in with Michelle. You commit. And like any relationship worth its salt, you’ll never regret it. Way back in the day I used to make fun of yoga. I would stretch a bit after running but that was it. Slowly migrated with the crowds into some trendy yoga to balance out the long runs. Over time, even with the trendies, I noticed a different kind of strength, better wind, endurance.
My first classes with Michelle were at a workshop on Cortez Island 5 years ago. She learns your injuries, your sensitivities and remembers absolutely every detail. Moving through practice one hears her gently remind whoever needs to adapt in that moment. Her attention to detail is as rigorous as it is creative. One is never allowed to feel pain, but you’ll always finish class feeling worked. Her workshops and retreats are legendary. (Cortez, Sicily, Mexico). Classes with Michelle are like stealth bomber fitness for body and mind. It’s a quiet and steady discovery. You will feel stronger, sleep better, laugh more. In my first year of a regular practice with Michelle Yoga, I not only strengthened weakness from an old shoulder injury, I became stronger overall with a baseline fitness with extraordinary endurance for hiking, running, cycling. I am easily fitter than I was a decade ago and loving my 60s thanks to Michelle Yoga.
