As a trained classical dancer, I am familiar with depth of instruction in moment. Having studied with Mona Therese, I feel she is very sensitive to my asanas practice and very intuitive to the needs of all her students. Any studio would be lucky to have her as an instructor.
- Gloria Cooper, Yoga student, CA

Mona's patience and mental guidance in her Yoga classes have been the best support I could get. Her philosophy of working consistently with body and mind and not forcing things ahead is a unique approach for me - and it has worked perfectly. Today, I am an experienced Yoga practitioner - not just physically, but also on a Spiritual Level. My pain and sadness has been released from my body and soul . The best proof of my transformation is the fact that my osteoporosis has stopped evolving. My doctors are truly impressed.
