Astrid has a no-nonsense style. She gives clear and useful cues for proper form and alignment, and won't give up until you've got it. She has a great sense of humor and a depth of knowledge.
Thank you Darcey for your review. I didn't realize I had a no-nonsense style! Rather funny that you say that as I've been wearing a pair of socks recently that say 'No Nonsense' on the toes. I do like to take the yoga teachings seriously and to communicate that to my students, because I know how powerful the yoga practice can be when practiced with dedication and knowledge. On the other hand, I hope I'm not too strict!
I like to encourage everyone to do their best but also to take into account their personal situations on any given day and to have compassion for themselves. So non-nonsense, but with humor and sensitivity, yes :) I hope to see you in class again some time soon! Mornings sessions will be starting every day at Firelight in a couple of weeks. They should be sweet.
