“I highly recommend one-on-one yoga lessons with Soledad Torres, the yoga instructor at Integrated Therapies. Unlike group classes, where the student can slack off, give only half an effort, and not be noticed, with one-on-one instruction, there is no place to hide. Progress is made because Soledad very gently demands attention to every detail, from breathing, to not becoming distracted by drifting thoughts, to the right amount of pressure at the base of the first finger in downward facing dog. Soledad looks her students in the eyes, and asks “How are you?”. She really wants to know: how you are in your body, in your spirit, in your mind; and focuses on helping you maintain or work towards peacefulness and presence in your poses. This is the mark of an excellent instructor. She is not simply calling out instructions (something for which you could find an iphone app), but she is accompanying you through the practice with you in mind. When she asks how you are, you may as well tell her the truth. There’s no place to hide. And in that moment, you are ready for yoga.”
