Tania and RupaliWhat people are saying about Tania and Rupali...

"Tania and Rupali are wonderful teachers. They are experienced, knowledgable and sensitive to each student's needs. They cultivate self compassion and mindfulness and provide inspiration to students to develop a more introspective practice of just being present in the moment. Now, yoga is an integral part of my life. Every time I step on my mat I remember Tania's words—drishti, connect my breath to stay focused and engage my bandhas." ~ Linda, Hawaii Kai, HI
