MyYogaTeacher Community

In my experience of being with MYT for the past few years, the yoga sessions have been outstanding, thanks to my amazing teachers who are prompt, deeply knowledgeable, and personalize each session to my needs. My teachers consistently foster a welcoming and supportive environment, checking in about personal challenges and adapting techniques to suit both physical and emotional well-being. Each instructor brings a unique teaching style and energy, making sessions engaging, challenging, and patiently guided. Their encouragement and constructive feedback deepens my practice, boosts confidence, and motivates my progress, while their holistic approach—blending physical, mental, and spiritual insights has truly transformed my experience on the mat. The care team is always helpful, quickly resolving any problems that arise. While sessions are scheduled for 60 minutes, they often end a few minutes early—some extra flexibility here would enhance the experience. Introducing loyalty rewards for long-term clients or variable pricing would also be appreciated. Lastly, adding more comprehensive nutrition education would help those, like myself, who struggle with weight loss and diabetes management despite mindful vegetarian eating, yoga practice, and meditation

I have found yoga to be a really good way of keeping the weight off – had to lose weight another way (combination of diet, weight training and cardio) but then yoga was a great way to prevent gaining the weight back.

Member Spotlight: Binu Kurup, 51 | California, USA “Small, steady steps with the right teacher can lead to lasting well-being.” Before joining MyYogaTeacher, Binu’s life was a whirlwind of work pressures and family duties, with little time left for herself. As someone navigating a high-stress job and the onset of perimenopause, her health—both physical and emotional—had quietly slipped down her list of priorities. That all changed in January 2024. In her search for more than just a yoga class, Binu discovered the heart of our platform: teachers who truly see you. After trying a few sessions, she found her way to Priya Choudhury, Nitisha and Arashdeep—teachers who brought not just expertise but presence, empathy, and real-time, personal guidance. Among them, Priya became a constant. Whether in group classes or 1:1 sessions, Priya curated each session with a thoughtful blend of structure and creativity. What stood out most? Her memory for each student’s needs—offering quiet modifications for back pain or shoulder issues without missing a beat. “Her classes are intentional, grounded, and alive,” Binu shares. 🧘‍️ The Results? • A stronger, more flexible body • A calmer, more balanced mind • A renewed sense of self-care and consistency • A deeper respect for yoga as a spiritual practice Despite business travel and a busy schedule, Binu now makes her practice a priority—not a chore. And in Priya, she found not just a teacher, but a guide rooted in the values that make this practice so powerful. Binu’s Advice for Others: “Find a teacher who sees you—your needs, your pace, your potential. You don’t need big leaps. Just small, sincere steps, taken with the right guidance, can change everything.”
