Testimonials

“I first hired and met Pamela in 2012 to run a mixed-level yoga class for a corporate retreat I was leading atop Grouse Mountain. She was so wonderful, positive, clear with her instructions, so capable with her demonstrations, and modified movements to suit our groups’ diverse needs.

My colleagues and I so enjoyed yoga with her that first time that I’ve hired her to guide us through yoga and help bring calm and focus to the start of our morning at every retreat since. 

My husband and I have also been taking her public indoor and outdoor yoga classes regularly ever since. Pamela is a fabulous, supportive, capable and experienced yoga instructor.“

“I have had the good fortune to practice yoga for over the past 20 years and enjoy a variety of different styles. I have been lucky enough to practice regularly with Pamela for a number of years now. I unequivocally sing her praises regularly to my family & friends. Warm, genuine & skilled, Pamela has guided & inspired my personal practice through both happy and difficult times. I am very grateful for having had the opportunity to share space, both physical and virtual with her.”

“My favourite yoga teacher for sure, Pamela is fantastic in releasing stress. I have been taking her Hatha & Yin classes for a few years, and they have been physically enough & yet very relaxing at the same time. I sit a lot at work on the computer all day, & her lessons make my back feel much better & my whole body more relaxed! Pamela's voice is very soothing. She kindly & clearly guides you through the practice, often giving alternative options for either more flow or also considering possible limitation one might have due to injuries. She takes her time during poses which allows me to be spiritually connected. I highly recommend Pamela, she’s a wonderful teacher, and I’m so glad to have found someone that brings me peace and relaxation for the whole body & mind. I’m very grateful for her to offer such inspiring reasonable yoga classes!”

“I started to take my yoga practice seriously after taking Pam’s classes.  Her style of teaching, and precise cueing allows me to sink into the practice confidently.  Her patience and open acceptance allows me to practice safely without judgement, and the benefit my body receives is measured only by how I feel when I CAN’T do yoga.  I would highly recommend Pam’s classes for beginners as well as advanced practitioners.”

“Pamela’s yoga classes guide you into a lot of moves that delve into fascia & storehouses in the body where stress builds its fortress. Her tone is perfect and she gives excellent instruction. How does one judge a good yoga class? I don’t know for certain, but from my experience with her, I’d say the quality of one’s savasana — and yesterday for the first time in years, I slipped into a rabbit hole of colours, dreams & such deep relaxation.”

Gloria - public classes

“I have been taking yoga classes with Pamela since 2013. She has an excellent understanding of the muscle/energy & balance mechanics of yoga and she integrates the spirit & awareness beautifully. She gives instructions for the basics and options for more challenge, allowing you to increase your level at your own pace. She structures her classes really well, drawing on her wide body of knowledge, classes are not just the same thing over and over. I also like how she reminds us to listen to our bodies & work within the appropriate levels for yourself in the moment. I have learned that yoga is a gift that you give yourself - a daily, weekly body-energy-strengthing nutrient, & that my energy levels are different in each class depending on what has gone on in my day. Her classes bring you inward, which allows you to go deeper into the pose. My practice has improved & become so much more enjoyable. Pam is a gifted yoga teacher.”

“Pamela is an outstanding yoga teacher who classes are instantly calming. She consistently offers a variety of poses and the right balance of encouragement and thoughtfulness. I look forward to her classes every week. Thank-you Pam!”

Stephanie - public classes

“I have so enjoyed joining and always look forward to Pamela's yoga classes.  She is an exceptionally great instructor, and I very much enjoy the nature of her practice as she has created a very welcoming, friendly, inspiring, and positive space to be a part of and her passion for yoga really shines through. The Yin and Hatha classes have really challenged me both mentally & physically, and as a runner I have found the yin sessions have really helped immensely with sore/tired muscles. Pam's encouragement to try and stick in the pose and/or ease up when needed, makes you feel very comfortable. When the class is soon to come to an end she settles you into a very restful savasana, which I have found myself wanting to stay in for longer many times. Thank you Pamela for sharing your love of yoga with all of us.”

“I first met Pamela at a Creekside Com Centre in 2014. She was offering Hatha yoga classes and I thoroughly enjoyed her teaching style, gentle personality & caring attention to all students. I continued to take many additional classes with Pamela over the years, including many outdoor yoga classes in the summer at: Creekside & Mount Pleasant Com Centre, Queen Elizabeth Theatre, many yoga & hiking excursions to Deep Cove & at the top of the stunning Squamish Gondola.

Pamela is a nurturing teacher who possesses a true passion for her teachings & a vast understanding of yoga. She has a positive attitude & teaches from a place of authenticity and compassion. Pamela readily shares what she has learned through her own practice and provides inspiration to her students. During class, Pamela is always well prepared & teaches in layers from simple to more complex, gentle to stronger so as to cater to all levels, offering alternatives. Her voice is clear, pleasant & easy to listen to. Pamela is committed to the students and welcomes questions & discussions while also providing reassurance and support. It is a pleasure to know Pamela and participate in her yoga classes.”

Louisa - public classes

“One of the best things I can do for myself during the week is take Pamela’s yin yoga. The class allows for true relaxation and time to listen to your breath. Pamela’s style of teaching is supportive and her voice is calming. She encourages students to listen to what their bodies need. She is a yoga teacher for everybody. I feel very rested after her classes which is an amazing feeling before Friday. I highly recommend her Yin and Hatha classes!”

Kathryn  - public classes

“I have taken yoga with a wide variety of teachers over the course of 67 years. Pamela is certainly among one of the best teachers that I have had. She brings something special to each class. her instructions are so clear that I find I can do my practice with my eyes closed thereby making it a very meditative, relaxing and restorative practice for me. I love that each of her class”es is different. You don’t know going in what to expect - your body doesnt perform a routine it knows by heart - every class is new and refreshing. Along with the very clear instructions, Pamela has the perfect voice fro a yoga teacher - soft and relaxing.”

Sandy - public classes

“Over the years I have had the pleasure of practicing yoga under the instruction of Pam. She is not only a knowledgable instructor but also a giving instructor. She observes her students and adapts the practice so that her students receive the most benefit and enjoyment. Some of my favourite practices have been early summer mornings with the sounds of nature and the ocean as our view. Afterwards, Pam would lead us on a short hike and we then finish off with a patio lunch.  Pam has a wonderful disposition. She gives more of herself and of her time to others and never expects anything in return.”

“Hi Pamela, I wanted to thank you so much for coming & leading the yoga session with the LEAD program on Friday. Many of the women in the group are facing a lot of challenges in their lives right now and one woman had been crying before you arrived. I could feel the energy in the room settle into peaceful relaxation as you led us through the breathing exercises and gentle stretches. After you left, the women shared how much they had enjoyed the yoga. Your approach is respectful, gentle and affirming. It was absolutely perfect for our group. Thank you for your generosity in volunteering your time & for sharing your skills with us. I will highly recommend you to the other teachers!”

“Since 2015, Pam has been my favourite yoga teacher. She shares a wealth of knowledge and experience and is kind, caring, listens carefully and is always helpful. I have booked on-going private yoga sessions with her in my home for years. With her amazing music collection she carefully selects for the type of class, she guides me through each and every pose and offers modified or alternative versions that help me relax my nervous system and let go. I feel happy and refreshed after each class! I highly recommend yoga sessions with Pamela!“
