Testimonials

Alex is a fantastic yoga teacher! He has set me on a path to health, but more importantly happiness! It is great to look good, but it is amazing to feel good, and Alex has played a huge role in both for me! I will always be grateful for his impact on my life! He may think it is small, but to me his influence has been huge! His shiatsu practice also incredible, so if you want even just a taste of his gifts, I say book a session to start! Thank you Alex for blessing my life!

Alex is an amazing practitioner and yoga teacher. He is super knowledgeable, dedicated and caring. Whenever I have a shiatsu I feel so much more relaxed and balanced. Alex takes the time to pass on valuable knowledge to you and gives specific exercises to do at home which have made me so much stronger. I highly recommend him!
