Testimonials
We hope you enjoy what our wonderful students say. Experience the loving, light hearted environment of total body yoga for yourself!
I came to Total Body Yoga to see if there was another evening class I could take to supplement my gym workouts. With in 2 months, I completely switched my routine, cancelled my gym membership and now take classes at the studio 3-4 times a week instead. My stress level has significatly reduced, and my practice has really impacted my overall outlook on life. It has been such a positive and rewarding experience.
Silvia-We are so grateful to have found total body yoga and you. Our life would never have been so peaceful, loving and happy without total body yoga.
Yoga at Total Body Yoga has been both a mentally and physically enriching experience for me. The defining moment was one class when Silvia started the day asking us, "Did anyone ever teach you how to relax?" My answer was no, not until I met Silvia. Silvia is a wonderful teacher, mentor and friend. Total Body Yoga is great with its flexible schedules, warm friendly atmosphere and great people. I recommend it to anyone who will listen.
I was convinced at one of your basics class that you were speaking directly to me through your theme, I'm sure each person in the class also thought so! I do love TBY!!!!!
Linda: My occupation and athletic endeavours have taken their physical toll, but Total Body Yoga has helped me to restore function and symmetry while gaining flexibility and reducing chronic pain. I leave each class rejuvenated and looking forward to the next one! Through her instruction and enthusiasm, Sylvia and her staff have inspired me to review the anatomy of poses and stretches which has enhanced my understanding of what my body needs. I am thankful each day that I found you!
Tim: As an endurance athlete, I have discovered the importance of maintaining
flexibility. Yoga has become part of my exercise regimen because it has improved flexibility and has aided with recovery from long workouts. I'm sure that it has also helped with injury prevention and overall athletic performance. Silvia has taught classes that focus on specific areas, such as hips and hamstrings, that are common problematic areas for runners and cyclist. Silvia and her staff are passionate about yoga and are more than willing to help you incorporate yoga into an exercise program.
TBY puts the 'yo' in yoga. It's like 'yo what a great place! 'yo, what great
instructors!', 'yo, what a great workout!'. I've been to places that put the
'og' in yoga and, if you think about it, 'og' is too close to 'ug'. Silvia and
her staff definitely have that 'yo'!
Thank you so much for another inspiring and wonderful class! They keep me grounded and optimistic!"
Silvia- Thank you for changing the lives of my daughter and me, your studio is just what we have both been searching for. Thank You!
I subscribe to the theory that "when the student is ready, the teacher will appear." When I was in dire need of some emotional/physical help I stumbled upon Silvia and Total Body Yoga and it has changed my life. I can't say enough good things about Silvia and the entire staff at TBY and I will remain eternally grateful for all of their loving support and teaching. I tell everyone I meet about my yoga practice and how it is the best thing I have ever done for myself. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
TBY has deepened my love for yoga. Silvia is a phenomenal teacher who not only
teaches the physical part of yoga, but the mental and spiritual part as well. All of the teachers offer something different with each class which makes doing yoga at TBY so fresh and exciting.
Silvia- Thank you for your support and encouragement, I was actually considering giving up, but you have given me new hope that I will recover. I am most appreciative.
Your studio and very special teaching style mean so much to me.

I came to TBY to find help for my chronic back problems. Little did I know I would find a wonderful studio and a spiritual path for life. I'm excited to be part of such a great community and grateful to have such loving, creative teachers as guides.

I wanted to say that you all are the greatest! I came looking for a place to heal some injuries and test my physical strength and found so much more. Your studio and all the teachers are a real inspiration to OPEN UP in the body and mind. Thanks so much to all of you!
My life has been positively transformed by the teachers and classes I take at Total Body Yoga. As a marathon runner, I used to be injured and sore from training. Since I joined TBY, I run injury and pain-free. Although I still am not flexible enough to touch my toes, TBY teachers offer alternatives for different levels of practice in the same class.
I just completed a Kundalini class and I really enjoyed it. I will be coming back to the Kundalini class and many more.
I appreciate everything about the classes: inspiration, cheerfulness, challenges, education, fun, music, studio atmosphere and the tea!
