Testimonials

I have been practicing with Zephyr for many years now – and she is truly inspirational.

Aside from looking like a cross between a supermodel and a rock star – and also having an unparalleled knowledge of the biomechanics yoga (grounded in a background in medicine) – she is also able to share her vulnerabilities to illustrate the spiritual teachings that are at the heart of yoga.

Drawing on the yoga sutras, she tailors each week’s classes around a specific lesson:  starting with a preamble introduction (during which she explains the theory behind that week’s class), before applying said theory in a physical asana and pranayama practice, and closing with yoga nidra / meditation (her lilting Idaho accent soothing you into deep relaxation).  Further – said preamble allows the student to transfer the lessons learnt from her classes into everyday life.

Finally – Zephyr – utilises digital platforms – such as her website (Zephyryoga.com) – as well as Instagram and Facebook  – to provide recordings of her classes – which allows her students to follow-up at their leisure.

All of the above is delivered with a self-deprecating humour. I would not hesitate to recommend Zephyr to any student of yoga.

Practicing yoga with Zephyr has provided me with a deeper connection to myself and a better understanding of the different aspects of yoga, moving through and beyond asana to connect to my lived experience through breath, mantra, meditation and reflection. She brings humanity, humour and incredible insight to the way she shares and explains yogic teaching, making it accessible, relevant and easily applied to life. I learn so much every time I am able to take part in her classes as she brings the tools and guidance needed to explore what it means to be human to what she gives her students in her teaching. It’s not only what I have learned from Zephyr to apply to each day, but the impact that this learning has had on my growth and ability to live my life in a much more connected, reflective and compassionate way. I have been moved by what these experiences have brought to my life, my yoga practice and the way I live – learning as I go with so much more access to the ideas I’ve needed to empower and support my development and connection to consciousness. Zephyr has a beautiful approach to her teaching that makes it a joy to be her student, tapping into more depth and meaning than I have ever experienced before in my yoga practice.

I feel lucky to have met Zephyr she is open and honest about her own personal experiences which is unbelievably refreshing. Zephyr also has a unique ability to translate the ancient teachings of yoga philosophy and apply them to everyday living. This has helped me no end in my own practice and has inspired me as a teacher.

‘In my 15 years of yoga practice, I have never come across a yoga teacher who is so talented, knowledgeable, full of wisdom and passionate. Zephyr’s knowledge of the yoga sutras, the yoga asanas and her meticulous planning of her yoga classes really allow you experience yoga on a totally different level! Personally, I have experience huge mental shifts, a more deeper connection and a real sense of belonging to the world since working with her. She is a superstar and has many celebrity clients but is the most down to earth, humble, kind human being that I have practiced with. I am so grateful to have Zephyr as my yoga teacher’.

Zephyr integrates her incredible knowledge of Yoga philosophy into her vinyasa flow practise with warmth, humour, generosity and grace..

I always come away from her classes feeling better, enriched, and walking just a little taller. 

I found her during lock down and her classes have provided a bright and inspiring light in the darkness. 

Perfect post-pregnancy opener. I haven’t reconnected with my breath for such a long time and needed someone to redirect my focus inwards x

I’ve been practicing yoga for eight and a half years and have had a regular practice in three different countries, but Zephyr’s classes are truly my favorite of all the ones I’ve ever taken. I’ve experienced her classes only since the pandemic — in other words, only via Zoom — but Zephyr’s sense of humor, the clarity of her explanations regarding alignment and placement, and her deep, always evident belief in the goodness of yoga come through the ether so vividly. I feel like I’m in the same room with her as I practice. Her yoga classes for me have been such a light in this dark time.

And thank you again for the great yoga classes!
