"Roxy is a godsend. I have been taking privates with her for the last year. We were in the studio at first, but now we have our sessions in her lovely home. Vibe is more personable and intimate. I have to have a hip replacement and all are sessions curtailed to helping my hip get stronger before surgery. Besides that, she helps my whole body get more tone. She makes sure my form is good and where my body parts should be in each pose. She is very professional and constantly counting her education in the field. We have a good time doing what we do! I highly recommend her if you are in need of a yoga instructor."

"I was lucky enough to get into one of Roxanne's yoga classes. I have no experience with yoga. Unfortunately, I signed up for an intermediate class. This was far too advanced for me. However, Roxanne saw me struggling and assisted in every way without neglecting the intermediate students she had. I have a whole new respect for yoga and what my body can accomplish. Thank you Roxanne for helping me be a better version of myself." -Dorothy J.
"I love going to Roxanne's yoga classes. I have worked construction most of my career, and have been through a lot of stress and headaches. She helped me zone out life's worries, and concentrate on my body, encouraging me to breathe deeply and stretch in places I didn't realize were tight. Thank you for keeping me focused on my yoga journey!" -Ben S.
"I'm a late beginner to yoga. I have never been terribly flexible, but after I turned 50, I started to experience decreasing range of motion. I decided to give yoga a shot. Roxy gave me my first class, and very patiently guided me through the basic poses. Under her tutelage over the past few months I would now consider myself an intermediate practitioner and I definitely can feel a greater degree of flexibility. Highly recommend Roxy for all skill levels! " -John W.
"Roxy is amazing! As I'm new to the yoga scene, she made me feel very welcomed and secure about doing yoga. She listened to my concerns about my knee and was always reassuring me that she would help guide me to accommodate my knee issue with the different poses. After my first session with her, I fell in love with yoga! Not only is she very well educated about yoga, but her voice is extremely soothing and with that I was really able to connect twitch my inner voice and body. I highly recommend Roxy to anyone who is new to the yoga scene or who have been doing it for years. She is compassionate about what she is teaching and her clients I giver her a 10 star rating!" -TG
