... What SAYF Instructors are Saying ...
“Feeling tremendous improvement in my skills as a Human Movement teacher. Sharing safety techniques with my students in each and every movement, even subtle ones, creates an atmosphere of trust and knowledge of the ranges we all experience.” ~ Laura Ashland
“SAYF was valuable, challenging and comprehensive. It was practical for improving my understanding of anatomy and biomechanics. It helped me improve my practice and teaching skills. The combination of imagery, videos and text helped deepen my learning. SAYF provides information that you can return to time over time, to deepen your knowledge to take care of yourself and students, if you're teaching.” ~ RER
“Coming from an anatomy and bodywork background, SAYF was the perfect bridge to teaching yoga in a way that honors our bodies. We can challenge our bodies in a safe way that is sustainable so that we can also reap the mental/spiritual benefits of yoga without injury.” ~ Dolly Brandt, LMT
