“Of all the yoga instructors I have encountered over a span of some 15 years, Teresa is by far the most intuitive. I began attending her classes at Barefoot Works a few months ago and already feel yoga has made the transition from an occasional workout to an actual practice. She takes time with each and every student and respects each individual's needs, reminding us to respect ourselves and our bodies ... but most importantly, to have fun and be playful. If you are a beginning student, Teresa is a great guide into the practice. If you are an advanced student, she will teach you form, grace and presence of mind.” January 19, 2010 ~ Kris Martin Editor at Kentucky Doc Magazine and  Health & Wellness Magazine http://www.linkedin.com/in/whosyouraudience
