What do my Students say….
Below some of my lovely students have given their thoughts on my classes... I promise there wasn't any bribery involved to get these!! :-)
Some of my Students feedback came back anonymously as I wanted completely honest responses, these are identified by the U.K initials.
“My yoga journey started a year ago. And Tess is the only teacher I ever had, so I can’t make a comparison. I wouldn’t want to though because Tess is just perfect. As a beginner, Tess guided mixed ability classes well, emphasising that we should work to our limits. I think those more experienced enjoyed the classes (as many are still in attendance). And I got completely hooked, so I’m not quite a beginner any longer. I can now make some of the shapes those experienced students seemed to find so easy. Along with being a great teacher who notices and responds to the ability of her students, Tess is incredibly accommodating and conscientious of the practicalities of classes. Transitioning almost seamlessly (I’m sure it wasn’t but this is a sign of the effort Tess puts in) from onsite classes in village halls to online only during the pandemic of 2020 seemed to be no problem at all. Through talking with the group Tess has worked out a schedule and structure to classes that provide a balanced but varied yoga structure to my week. And with recorded lessons available online, there is never any time that I can’t practise. Much as I look forward to live classes again, I will have to learn not to swear so much. Thank goodness for the ‘mute’ button!”
“As a complete beginner to Yoga, I have loved Tess’s classes at the local hall and online. Tess is full of encouragement, just as you think you can’t do something, she says the right think to make you realise you can! Thanks Tess for your positive attitude and great teaching.”
“Tess is an excellent yoga instructor. Her lessons are well structured, easy to follow and very enjoyable. ”
“It has been wonderful doing yoga with Tess and look forward to attending the classes. She is very encouraging and goes through exactly what you should be feeling/stretching, and more importantly it’s okay to go back a stage if you’re not comfortable, thank you Tess!”
“Finding Tess and her Yoga classes in 2019 has made such a hugely positive impact on my life. Physically I am stronger and more flexible and I feel more in tune with my body. Mentally, I find myself more able to work through lifes challenges; the time I have taken out for yoga classes has been so worth while. It is often the only time when my head is not overwhelmed with the 1000000 things I feel I should be doing. Yoga Tess classes are enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding. I cannot wait to get on my mat and join a class live or on demand. Thank you Tess, for your support and encouragement, thank you for sharing your Yoga with us.

“Moving on from Hall classes To home has been a break though for me . Tess has set her classes up so professionally with camera & sound . She has catered for everyone the 8am classes for an hour have been superb . I have improved and grown stronger . Well done & Thank you Tess !!!”
“The online classes via Zoom have been great. Tess stepped up to the challenge and delivers a very slick session with clear instruction and demonstration. It must be difficult to see us and monitor us in our own homes but it works really well and her tuition is brilliant and challenging!”
“Tess is a brilliant teacher, great structure to the lessons with each class working you towards a posture. She is so friendly, encouraging and supportive of your personal yoga journey. I’m so glad I found Tess’s classes, as they got me back into yoga after a 5 year break. Thank you for all your dedication to the lessons, especially during the lockdown.”
“Since joining @YogaTess I have felt calmer both in my mind and body. Her patience, kindness and enthusiasm guides you through every class and new posture. Tess understands how to support and challenge at every level and it has been great to reignited my love of yoga. I look forward to every class - thank you Tess for letting me join your yoga family :-)”
“Tess really puts herself out to ensure that yoga on line is just as beneficial as in the studio. She holds space on line like a natural! Nameste x LF”
“We started yoga at the beginning of our retirement!! Not quite sure what to expect. Tessa is a great teacher. We are doing moves we never thought possible! M&N.”
