“My first ever class with Chanel was 5 days after spinal surgery and a trusted friend encouraged me to go, even if I just sat and breathed. A few minutes into gentle yoga, I knew I had found my yogi soulmate. Chanel has many sides to her (all bright, joyful and shiny) but she consistently BECOMES YOGI CHANEL the moment she begins to instruct. Therefore, I also react - my breath matching hers, my rhythm pairing with hers. I am no longer alone on my mat. After 3 failed spinal surgeries, I am left with chronic and intense spinal pain. The pain never subsides so how I choose to live each day is of the highest importance. Chanel’s teachings are actually more powerful than my pain. I stay in tune with her guidance and in return, I forget about my pain.
She is medicine, truth, authenticity, maternal, childlike in her joy, generous, honest and open, even when it is shockingly challenging for her to be. She is vulnerable. Because I trust her, I am more vulnerable too. She has taught me to trust and I do. To follow her and I do. To love her…Too easy! I do, I do, I do.

“Chanel creates magical experiences. You can tell she loves what she does. Every class or day retreat I’ve gone to, I’ve always felt held and supported.

“Chanel is the most authentic, intuitive, and naturally gifted person I know. Just ask her students…does being in her presence have a calming effect on your nervous system? I promise you the answer is a resounding yes! Chanel is incredibly skilled in her craft as a teacher, sound healer, and spiritual entrepreneur. She easily picks up on subtle energies from her students/clients, in addition to having genuine connections with them. Chanel’s teaching style cultivates an organic fluidity and awareness. Her offerings are thoughtful, unique relevant, and profound. It is clear to me this is Chanel’s soul expression…we as her students gratefully receive this love light and empowerment she so freely gives. What a gift that Chanel has chosen to transform some of the most difficult challenges in her own life to create a sacred container for others to heal. I will follow her anywhere just to be in her presence…”

“I believe that you always read the energy of the room and instinctually customize each class to the group that you have in that moment. I find no repetition from class to class. Your style, energy and verbal delivery make me eager to attend any classes that you are leading. I truly respect and verbal appreciate the love and caring you share through your craft.”

“My practice experience with you was amazing. This was my first time doing a private session, we didn’t know each other, but from the moment we met I felt comfortable. I knew immediately that I was where I should be to begin my birthday. You were warm, welcoming, genuine. You curated a perfectly balanced session for my birthday - slow, steady, with the correct level of challenge. Most importantly, you created and held a safe space for me to be open, trusting, and vulnerable. This impacted me deeply because I am not inclined to express that level of openness and vulnerability on a first encounter with someone. I would recommend you without a second thought and can’t wait to practice with you again!”
