Atsuko, after 10 weeks, I can't believe how much stronger and flexible my body feels. I love that you teach the names, new positions and history. The best session yet tonight. Thank you for being the best.

Since starting yoga lessons with Atsuko she has taught me the power of stretches and relaxation...I suffer from scoliosis and back pain and it's all been so beneficial..thankyou

I have a spinal condition and having tried everything I came to Atsuko's yoga. It's enabled me to avoid surgery and kept me from taking the opioid's prescribed. Spiritually - I am now aware of the connection to the practice.

Atsuko is a true professional whose instruction is easy to understand, and I appreciate the belief from my teacher that I can improve.

Yoga with Atsuko has given me my confidence back. I'm stronger both physically and mentally, not to mention that I love the classes

Yoga has been so good for my all round health over many years and I have not found a better teacher than Atsuko.

I’ve practiced yoga on and off for several years and can’t fault my previous teachers.

That said, there’s something about Atsuko that keeps me coming back course after course. Her knowledge and attention detail are to be commended and it’s obvious her students respect and admire her.

I can’t fault Atsuko. Her teaching methods are engaging and fun and her sessions are a joy to take part in.

After today's session instead of feeling tired I have more mental and physical energy than I have felt in a long time, and I look forwards to a long and healthy life with Ashtanga Yoga as the central pillar. Thank you.

Your Yoga sessions have really help to sort out my plantars fasciitis, and isolated shoulder after many sessions of physiotherapy. Every session has a new element added designed to stretch and improve my practice. The instructions you give are clear and positions are corrected to give the best results.

I have been attending yoga classes with Atsuko twice a week, for a couple of years. Each class starts off with very simple stretches and then follows a structured format whilst introducing new yoga poses. Classes are fun and enjoyable, whilst also being a great workout of the mind and body – sometimes physically challenging but also a great way to develop your mental focus. We have men and women of all ages in our sessions and with Atsuko you will very quickly build your flexibility and confidence. –

'I'm 59.I started yoga with Atsuko 2 years ago after years of nerve and back issues forced early retirement and illness 10 years earlier. I wish I'd started 40 years ago. Yoga for me has been like having a full service with every joint being oiled . The classes are very relaxing and as challenging as you make them. There is no judgement, you go at your own speed. Atsuko is a great teacher.

Atsuko had worked with me 1 to 1 as part of my recovery and both my flexibility and stamina has improved immeasurable. Our weekly classes are always different and Atsuko had tailored them to my level of competency. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Atsuko and I look forward to our next lesson.

I’ve been going to yoga with Atsuko for over a year now and I love it!!!

I’m a Gardener for a living so always had aches and pains in my back and joints, but since starting yoga the difference is amazing.

I now feel stronger, healthier and have no more aches and pains.

The classes are so friendly with a mix of all ages and abilities. Atsuko always offers a few different options for each posture, so you can join in, in whichever way you are most comfortable.

I also subscribe to Atsuko’s YouTube channel and squeeze extra yoga in at home whenever I get the chance.
