Maggie provided a very non-intimidating, comfortable and educational session. I have tried two other beginners yoga classes before Maggie's to try out yoga, and frankly they were intimidating, not informative and I wasn't able to enjoy or obtain much benefit. Maggie's class was great, inspiring and motivating... Looking forward to more yoga at Semperviva!
