Beth is a kind, extremely skilled teacher and a wonderful example...

I have been attending a weekend workshop with Beth every year for several years now. If I lived in Edmonton I'd spend a lot more time with her!

Long before I became or even thought of becoming a yoga teacher myself, I would have the most profound experiences and insights in her workshops. As I began to train to be a yoga teacher, I realized how much I could learn from her and began to pay closer attention to how she taught. And the more I know, the more I feel grateful for gifted teaching and generosity.

She has always been extremely knowledgeable, encouraging, compassionate and helpful. But one of her best qualities is that what she teaches is fully INTEGRATED. She has lived and breathed the yoga she teaches and because of this she offers a wonderful example of taking the teachings deeply into every arena of your life. I've seen her change and blossom over the years as she practices and shares her wisdom and experience.

As other people stepped down from organizing her workshops in Banff and Calgary, I felt called to step in and ensure that she continue coming to my neck of the woods. One year I was particularly busy and thought of skipping out on this job, but so many people begged and pleaded that I had to say yes again. And was I ever glad that I did! Afterwards, I wondered "what was I thinking?"

Her classes and workshops are a place where you can experience a level of loving support that is rare. Beth creates a container where yoga is transformational.
