Minga is a very holistic yoga instructor. She is a very knowledgeable teacher. She is very patient about answering questions about a diverse number of topics. She always makes time to get to know each new student and any limitations or injuries they have. Then she is careful to give them special instructions for a poses that cause pain. She also does a good job of offering classes to men as well as women. She has done a nice job of transitioning into offering classes via Zoom. She still manages to keep a careful eye out of anyone struggling and to offer personalized guidance. I recommend her classes as well her personal sessions to both men and women.

I have been a client of Minga's for several years and she is amazing as a yoga therapist. She gives both highly targeted and holistic guidance and support for my well-being, with an integrated mind/body approach. Minga helps me with exercises (stretches, foam rolling, and strengthening) to address my physical challenges, prevent injuries and increase circulation and strength. I've worked with Minga in person, in group classes, and online for the past 8 months and all methods are great because Minga is an inspired teacher and coach. I cannot recommend Minga highly enough during this challenging time when we are socially distancing and not attending yoga classes in person.

Minga is a gifted healer. She is able to bridge the mind-body connection in a sophisticated, nuanced way. Minga teaches by example and utilizes her words, coupled with personalized detailed movement, to help you delve into places in the body that have held stress and trauma and thereby to access release in a profound way. I have followed Minga's teaching across various settings and feel so lucky to be able to take her classes online and see how beautifully she has integrated all the in depth training she has pursued. Minga is truly a treasure!

Minga is one of the best, if not THE BEST yoga teacher I have taken classes from. I appreciate her individualized approach - she corrects and supports the body where/when needed. She hones in on the individual's needs and gives specific instructions for the person. There is lots of focus on the breath and breathing in different parts of the body. She is a jewel.

I took Minga's Roll and Release workshop last Sat and I left with tools for daily workouts with my foam roller, lacrosse/tennis balls and yes, I bought two of her beautiful bolsters. She leads a personalized workshop. It was energizing and relaxing. I loved the work on breathing. I'm thankful she's out in the world spreading the word. "You should be happy and comfortable most of your life," she said. Yes!
