1:1 private sessions student feedback

 “Although I have practiced yoga for many years, a knee injury caused me to very much limit my practice. A 1:1 with Debs gave me back my confidence and motivation. Debs ascertained which postures I could achieve and which I should be aiming for to improve my strength and aid recovery. Debs  carefully, considerately and skillfully tailored the session to my needs.The personal alterations and modifications she showed me meant I could safely continue  my practice. She is very encouraging!

Debs has passion and compassion and willingly and enthusiastically passes on her knowledge to her students. My 1:1 sessions were invaluable to me, giving me a greater insight into how my own body is built( we are not all the same!)and how it works. I am now thankfully fully recovered but still value and take heed of the  advice Debs gave me” Marie

I have a one to one yoga class with Debs of Soul Harmony Yoga once a week, and have done for over 12 months.

I derive more benefit than in group classes, because it is a personalised class just for you, and Debs can gauge how and what you are feeling the day of the lesson, therefore, tailoring it just for you.

I have been helped personally with these one to one lessons, because there is a feeling of relaxation throughout the whole of the lesson, much more so than in a group class. These relaxing techniques are taught by Debs in the most subtle of ways, that you are hardly aware it’s happening, but it does. Also there is time to get the asanas just right for me personally,because I do have a small number of knee problems,and if Debs feels I need more time on certain postures, we will return to those more than is possible in a group class.

Debs Fawcett is a wonderful yoga teacher, with skills and a personality to match. She has the patience, the kindness to explain things to her students, the relaxing way she teaches, which is a very thorough way, at the same time she is professional in her outlook towards the practice of Dru yoga.  In fact she is a fine example of the standards of teaching Dru yoga, and Dru yoga needs more like her, also she is very gentle with her approach.

Anyone thinking of having a one to one course with Debs will not regret it, and in fact if they are new to yoga, they would benefit immensely with a one to one course before they actually join a full working students class with Debs.  Anyone going for a one to be course, would also pick up very easily on the postures because of working closely with their teacher Debs, who would be able to point out any shortcomings to the student, and be able to correct them as they go along. When they are then able to join a full student class, they will  have had the benefit of getting to know Debs well and be able to work in close harmony with her.

I decided to do a 1:1 session with Debs when I found she was leaving us to start her new adventures! I wanted to check that I was doing the postures and alignments right to give me the confidence to carry on doing yoga by myself. I found it very valuable having the attention as she helped me see what I could do to strengthen my practice. I’m looking forward to the online courses and will definitely be signing up! Since I started doing yoga with Debs I have found it very beneficial in becoming more flexible, my back ache is now none existent and my asthma has improved though doing the breathing exercises. I would definitely recommend giving yoga with Debs a try! 

Ohh yes – not sure if I mentioned this before, but still a BIG thank you to you – I am still using the detox green smoothie recipe you gave me as part of your detox course – usually a few times a week, and I’m also using the Potassium based Soup recipe – it really is delicious – I’m making a weekly batch up at the moment & have it everyday for lunch at work. It’s filling & also helps me keep ‘alkaline’.

You have played/are playing a part in my journey to recovery and I would like to thank you again for all your help and advice. Big hugs to you.
