Can I really do Yoga? I am really stiff (weak, old, overweight, out of shape.) and can't even touch my toes! Yes, you can do yoga even if you are not flexible! And, you will become more flexible if you practice yoga regularly.

I've studied yoga with other yoga teachers, both classical hatha yoga, Bikram's and Iyengar-style. Nancy is an excellent, top-notch instructor. Her instructions are clear and precise, her corrections timely and sensitive, and she has an excellent sense of what each student can and can't do. She knows how to keep the classes fun and enjoyable, yet push us all to expand our flexibility.
