"I felt such a renewed sense of community from class tonight, especially beneficial during this quarantine. Physically - this is a screenshot I took after I did your sacral chakra YouTube class and WOW. Just wow. My heart rate went down to 44 bpm in shavasana and I can't even fathom that. I've been sressed to the max recently so that's just pure magic. Your voice is superb and comes through so clearly. I also loved the long silent pauses once we settled into a pose - gave my brain time to slow. My favorite part was definitely the beginning. You have such a way of easing us into practice and planing a seed to carry throughout. Thank you so much for putting your heart into your work!"
"Thank you again so much for all of the fun energy around body awareness and breathing! I absolutely love how interactive your classes are and that you encourage the kids to connect, speak up, and even take the lead!...We create so much magic together and I just love it!"
"The mindfulness and breathing exercises are one of the reasons why I love your classes. The exercises help me take a mental break and relax. My favorite part was the poem to go along with the mantra & the variations of Child's pose. I also enjoyed the pose with our foreheads on our hands while laying down that we did after sphinx (I think). "
"I've been trying to step up my fitness routine lately. Evan's restorative yoga classes give me a chance to check in with my body and help settle down at the end of the day. Each time, without fail, there are at least a couple moments where the flow will open something up and Evan anticipates exactly how my body wants to move with it. It makes me want to unmute myself so she can hear what started as a surprise and has become laughter at how effective Evan is. The feelings pair well with the intention setting included in each session, to make for an expansive, reflective exercise that feels like a dialogue. I could (and do) practice yoga on my own, but joining Evan each week is really special."
"Today was absolutely phenomenal! You are gifted and so beautiful with children. I love that you keep mixing it up for each class and how highly creative you are. We love you so much and will see you again tomorrow!"
"What I "saw" in you almost immediately, in a YW yoga class, was your Spirit, a shining light in you that I felt a resonance towards. You seem to let that "light" guide your life. I think all good things stem from that part of you.
As for your knowledge of all things Yoga, including Asana, Pranayama, Ayurveda practices, nutrition, etc., you are on the road toward this expertise. Your guidance in Asana practice alone shows a sensitivity and a teaching ability that communicates well to the student (me).
And now, with our latest commitment towards my Wellness journey, I believe you, your knowledge and, most of all your compassion and kindness."
"You are SO lovely, that class was pure magic as always. You do such a seamless job of making us feel like we're really there with ya despite it being virtual! I teetered in delta brain wave state for most of the class :) So calm! Sometimes my mind is such a tangle, but your classes really help me center!"
"One word to describe Evan and her class: connected. Evan's connection to spirit and source is felt throughout every sequence and asana. Not only is she a wealth of nowledge about the human body and alignment withint the physical self, but she also provides a spiritual element that aligns to the soul. Her flow was challenging and creative which is something I look forward to in my practice. All infused with tons of love and heart opening practices. If you ever get a chance to take one of Evan's classes, I highly recommend it!"
"Evan, you've been such a positive force in my life. I'm ever so grateful. You live what you preach and I respect that."
"Evan is an extremely knowledgeable and beautiful teacher of the art of yoga. She leads with her heart and easily and effortlessly adapts the practice to her students. She keeps every adult and child engaged, and she touches on very important life information. She makes topics on breathing and healthy expression of emotions feel like a bedtime story. My daughter has learned so much and is paying attention to her whole body in ways she didn’t prior to meeting Evan. Evan encourages and uplifts!"
