Joyce’s guidance throughout yoga class (in person and online) invites and supports a range of experiences, always reminding you to pay close attention to your own body. She has created a beautiful environment in her studio that enhances her skillful and thoughtful instruction. What a gift to the hilltowns! ~R.M.
Joyce creates classes that engage the whole of you from head to foot. Her emphasis on working with the breath in the context of each and every pose is a powerful antidote to the “mind chatter” that comes up in yoga practice. Each class is focused and intuitive, bringing just the right type of pace and energy to the specifics of the day. She is a Mind-Body savant! ~D.D.
I love each class! Joyce is a fabulous teacher. Each class is well thought out and her instruction is clear and calming. My body aches are gone and I feel great after each class! Joyce has a great way in how she instructs. Her tone in her voice is soothing, her instructions are clear and not complicated, she demonstrates often what she means, she gently corrects postures when needed, has a wealth of knowledge and a great sense of humor. I feel nurtured and restored after every class! ~S.C.
Joyce’s measured and thoughtful teaching has taught me the value of slowing down and discovering strength and grace through purposeful poses. During Joyce’s class I feel joyful, and afterwards I feel balanced. As a twenty year practitioner of Yoga I have had many skilled and inspiring teachers, but Joyce has brought something new and personally significant to my practice. ~K.C.
I love the class. Joyce is the best yoga instructor I’ve ever had! She is very mindful of the abilities of everyone in the class and offers variations to all the poses based on our ability. One class I was the only one who showed and she gave me a private class focusing on my low back pain. I’m still doing some of those poses to keep it in check. ~J.F
Joyce is a fantastic yoga instructor! She will support you individually and still be present for the group. You will leave her class feeling great. ~B.C.
I love that I don’t think there’s a muscle in my body that I haven’t worked or stretched! I always look forward to the meditation/relaxation at the end as well. ~M.S.
Joyce! Your instruction is fantastic! I really like that you are so aware of everyone’s needs and offer instruction directed to everyone’s level. ~K.C.
Joyce’s class combines challenging work and incredible relaxation. Her instruction gives me so much more from yoga, guiding me through the elements of a pose and reminding me where to engage, where to release and how to breathe. The same instruction applies to relaxation as her gentle voice prompts me to put aside the turmoil of the day and concentrate on the present moment. Joyce’s class is a joy. ~anon.
