Testimonials
"I have been going to Beishen's yoga class at the Boyd Community Centre in Southbank for over a year. When I saw the ad for the class in a local newspaper I just thought I’d go along for a week or two, but Beishen’s yoga class is now an integral part of my weekly routine.
Beishen’s gentle instructions are always accompanied by the two words, ‘inhale, exhale’ – a soothing and settling soundtrack to the work we do. She emphasizes the spine through constant reminders to lengthen the back of the neck and paying attention in the lower abdominal. She also provide alternatives in the same posture for those with injuries or a different level of fitness. Her class is suitable for all ages (I am in my mid-fifties).
Beishen is a conscientious and kind yoga teacher and I strongly recommend her classes."

"I have been to many yoga programs over time, but finding Beishen has made such a difference to both my physical and mental wellbeing. This is not a 'watch the teacher and copy' program. In a class, Beishen is extraordinarily patient and moves between students supporting them with personal attention that considers their needs and capacity.
I had a few private classes with Beishen. These personalised classes gave me a better opportunity to make connection with movements and breathing.
There have been 2 significant outcomes for me through Beishen's classes. The first is her focus on breathing throughout the class. This has had an enormous impact on how I move through my day now, returning to the breath constantly to regain focus and calm myself. The second is the impact of her designed sequences had on my long term hip problem (for which I had numerous treatments over time). The daily practice I do now ensures I am pain free and have full unrestricted movement again.
I highly recommend Beishen's classes if you are contemplating a class to improve your wellbeing."

"I have been attending Yoga with Beishen at the Boyd Centre for just over a year (since January 2017). I am a runner (and long walker), and I originally attended to help with my flexibility and core strength. Beishen is an excellent instructor who takes the time to explain each pose and then assists us to hold them correctly. She also takes the time to understand our capabilities and limitations, and helps us to adapt accordingly. My flexibility and balance is definitely improving, and I now look forward to Yoga each week, not just as an adjunct to my exercise routine, but as a key part!"

"My wife and I have been attending Beishen's yoga classes for over a year. She has a very pleasant and peaceful manner, and is very empathetic to the needs to her students. There is an emphasis on posture and breathing. It is a class that helps gently stretch the body and unclutter your mind. The classes have helped improved our posture and flexibility and work as our weekly physical and mental tune-up! She also provides us with voluntary 'homework' and caters the level of difficulty to her students. I highly recommend Beishen's yoga classes.

"I like yoga with Beishen because she is very sincere and dedicated to ensure each individual benefits in his/her own way by adapting to each person's ability and needs. I have definitely gained in many aspects as she encompasses stretching, strengthening exercises with breathing and relaxation. Her positive and patient encouragement gives me confidence in doing it right."
