“Many years ago an Iyengar yoga teacher told me that I could use my practice when life became difficult. I had no idea what she meant. Most recently I had two loses in my life of people who were close to me within hours of each other. While I have supportive family, friends and community, I could not wait to be on my yoga mat and take classes with Becky Meline and Lois Steinberg. I have never met either of these two teachers in person. I live out of state so my classes are online only. It did not matter to me. Lois and Becky are a gift to Iyengar yoga. Their teachings are honest, thoughtful, kind, wise and they teach with integrity. As I practiced I could focus on my body and breath to heal my mind and soul. One doesn’t have to experience sadness to appreciate their teachings. Most of the time I feel joyful and at peace during and after class. Through the Iyengar method Becky and Lois have helped me to be compassionate with myself. I bring that compassion to the world around me. Consistent practice is magic. I encourage everyone to try a class. Sheri Katz-plotkin Ph.D.“

She books up quickly so I would recommend having reoccurring sessions on the cal :)“
“Steve and Sharon presented at the Illinois Society of Healthcare Risk Management Annual Conference on May 20, 2022. Steve introduced us to several yoga stretches we could all do from our chairs. Sharon helped us relax with a focused meditation. What a great pair these two are! If you have a team or group that needs to learn how to relax and improve their wellbeing these two are who you need to get!!!“
