"Glows" from our Third Anniversary Gathering

"I love the variety of teaching styles and the mix of repeated and new postures in sequences in each class."

"The collective is very welcoming. As a person returning to in person yoga after many years, I have felt supported and encouraged."

"I get your newsletter. Super helpful!"

"I am so GRATEFUL for this community!! And I love the intentionality and authenticity that all instructors bring to their teaching!<3 I also really appreciate the weekly emails. They brighten my Sundays!"

"I love the sense of camaraderie between the teachers. It is contagious."

"Fantastic community love."

"I am so grateful for the Yoga Collective - it has offered me a safe, consistent, welcoming place to land when the world feels overwhelming, and movement, breath, and community feel like the answer."

"I know whatever class I attend, my soul/body/spirit will receive what it needs on that particular day. Each teacher/guide brings their own style of nurturing and positive energy - each class is a blessing."

"Well I feel glowy every single time I practice with you all. What a great group of instructors. You all inspire me and so do my fellow yogis in classes. I'm really happy that my partner likes to come do yoga there also. A few particular glows are:

1. The space: I really love it! I know it takes time and effort to work with another group but I hope you all can keep this partnership with Shambala going. The location, the vibe, the set up, all work form me.

2. The variety: I love what each of you brings to the collective. I don't know how you do it, but your of various styles mesh perfectly without losing what is unique about what each of you offer. It is easy to go from one class to another and enjoy the variety and learn in different ways.

3. Your attention: I feel really taken care of with you all. Even though I have had to work around a few injuries and a sporadic schedule, I have confidence that I will be well-guided in any class."

Past Testimonials

"The Davis Yoga Collective is a hidden jewel in a sacred space, right in the heart of downtown. The team, a cooperative of highly skilled teachers, are all dedicated to yoga as an integral part of their lives. The classes are really a way for them to share their deep and personal understanding of yoga and the human body in a variety of sessions tailored to seekers at any level. The Shambhala Meditation Center, as you can imagine, sets the spiritual stage for the teachings transmitted through asanas and brief meditations. Classes are small, and each student is respected and recognized for where they are on that particular day. After these classes you will step back onto the street with a palpable sense of liberating calm. Yes, you will also become stronger and more flexible in so many ways, but you already know that’s not the real goal. Classes with these extraordinary and generous teachers will also remind you why you fell in love with the practice of yoga In the first place -- and offer you the rare opportunity to experience Beginner’s Mind (and Body) no matter how long you’ve been practicing." ~Stanley Young
