Testimonials

“I love practicing yoga with Minal.  Her vinyasa classes are always well thought out and enjoyable.  She has a beautiful teaching style!  I always leave class feeling better and with a smile on my face.  I would highly recommend her if you are a beginner or seasoned practitioner.”

A. JUDAH, PRESIDENT & CREATIVE DIRECTOR, HYPNO DESIGN

“I started practicing yoga when I was 74 (seven years ago).  I atribute my commitment and strong desire to practice on a regular basis to Minal.  She is a well trained yoga instructor who has special qualities beyond her training.  I am immediately drawn to her instruction because of her voice and clarity of presentation through a well prepared vinyasa flow.  She is able to sustain excellent strength through transitional poses which enable students of various levels to participate together for over an hour.  She posses clarity of movement and makes excellent contact with all students.  She truly cares and demonstrates her own serious motivation to excellent yoga instruction.

I am a learning therapist and utilize a multi sensory technique to teach children who fail to thrive under conventional educational programs.  Through Minal’s yoga practice I learned more of an awareness of the mind and body and am able to translate deeper multi sensory techniques through a kinesthetic approach to help children reach goals to read, write, and compute on an integrated meaningful level.”

A. GAINES, LEARNING THERAPIST

“The very first spark of my love for yoga started with Minal.  I am so devoted and in awe when the mind and body come together as one.  Minal’s classes have been amazing and I have enjoyed them very much.  She is such a wonderful, friendly, caring, knowledgable, and professional instructor.  I must say that she has always been very thorough with her approach and explanation of poses.  The real transformation for me has been that I am finally calm, wish a peaceful body, mind, and spirit.”

R. ATIAH, MD - INTERNAL MEDICINE

“Having Minal as a student was a very pleasant experience, but having Minal as a yoga teacher at Yoga Path Studio was a honor.  She showed her authenticity as a yoga instructor in every class she taught.  Her energy and true passion were amazing.  She inspired her students to discover the path of yoga with love and compassion.”

V. GUTIERREZ, 500 HR ERYT

“Minal is an extremely knowledgeable and deeply caring yoga instructor.  Her attentiveness, mindfulness and patience creates a positive atmosphere which encourages all to joyfully discover their own path in yoga.  Her classes are energizing yet calming offering a balance of spirituality, physical challenge, and fun.  Minal understands my physical limitations offering accommodations that help me focus on what I can do and not what I can’t do.  I always look forward to the end of practice feeling my mind, body and soul are back in balance.”

N. EDMUND, ART INSTRUCTOR & EDUCATOR

“Minal and I went through yoga teacher training together.  Times when I wasn’t sure if I could do it, Minal was kind, generous, and encouraging.  I referred to Minal many times to check my form because she was always on point.  She is such a wonderful person with true love of yoga.  I am so happy she is teaching.”

“I had just started practicing yoga when I met Minal. She was visiting her family overseas. When I learnt that she was a yoga instructor, I happened to share with her the pain I had been experiencing in my neck and shoulders. I am so glad I did! She was quick to observe and pinpoint where in the posses I was over stressing. She helped me modify the poses in ways I had not experienced before. Her cues really helped me get a better understanding of how the poses should be performed to avoid injury. I have not had the opportunity to take any group classes with Minal yet. But would highly recommend a private with her if you require personalized and specific instruction.”
