“Roses & Poses Workshop at the Bay Club was absolutely wonderful & invaluable.” ….Lisa Rueff, Bay Club Yoga Teacher
“The experience(of Equal Partner Yoga) for me was like Yoga Couples Therapy.”…..Jenn Faith, yoga teacher, RN & musician
"We really appreciated the way you introduced yoga to us in a non-intimidating way." Dawn & Jay Marlette
"Through Lila & Ellis's work as yoga teachers, they can permanently change your life, and do it in a way that offers unlimited possibility for future growth. Their gentle, loving and skillful teaching makes change easy and sweet. My gratitude to them is boundless." Roy Doughty, business consultant, poet and writer
"Lila and Ellis fearlessly and joyfully shared the communication in their relationship, which enabled me to feel safe sharing "issues" that I normally have difficulty communicating. Through Equal Partner Yoga, I realized that personal growth needs solitude balanced with the fellowship of others for they reflect us and where we are in life." Joan Hu, research writer at UCSF
"I particularly valued the opportunity just to sit & gaze into my partner's eyes- to practice simply being with one another, with nothing to attend to but each other's soul...I predict that you will be very successful due to the difference you make in people's relationships; I believe many people will come to you for that invaluable service. I would also like to add that your class is a beautiful reminder that that which is sacred needn't be somber- that in fact love, play, and trust weave the most spiritual of moments, on the mat and off." -Jennifer Erickson, massage therapist
Did you experience Oneness with your partner in your
Private Equal Partner Yoga Session today? "Yes. I would say that we
often experience oneness with each other, but the focus on empathy and
attention to each other's needs, areas of challenge, and strengths really
brought us into the present moment, which I think contributed to our feeling
of oneness. In addition, the simple physicality of it and the way we were
made to engage with each other through both breath and touch helped us get
there, too.
Both of you crafted a session that felt particularly customized for us, and
where we are in our personal lives and relationship. We appreciated the time
and care you took to make the session as valuable to us as it could possibly
be; all the questions and constant communication really made us feel like
you were holding space for our relationship, so the entire experience truly
felt sacred. Your gentleness, patience, and in-the-moment presence helped us
get to a level of intimacy that we hope to further deepen and cultivate as
an always-present part of our relationship. I don't know how to describe it
except to say that both of you exude unconditional love, which made it easy
for Sam and me to connect with each other on a truly deep level”....Nirmala
& Sam, writers
