“Adri’s teacher training was a game-changer for my yoga teaching. It helped me understand fundamental principles that I have never been taught in my many years in the yoga world. Besides that, her light shines through her teaching! She teaches with utmost knowledge and organization. She is so patient with students as we need to adapt to the new information we are offered, letting us ask any questions we need and answering them all with clarity. She is open to meeting students wherever they are in their knowledge – nobody is left behind. These are all qualities essential in a yoga teacher! Lovely woman and lovely classes.”

I would highly recommend Adri for her knowledge of the practice, passion to teach and understanding of some of the specific needs of the female body, mind and spirit. I felt privileged to be taught by Adri!”
