Private Yoga Sessions

"I can honestly say that my 90 minute session was truly enlightening, informative and enjoyable. Throughout the session I always felt comfortable and empowered by the information she was sharing concerning the different breath and poses. I also was very surprised that throughout the session I did not experience any of the dizziness and/or headaches which I had been suffering from prior to the session and since the session they have decreased. I definitely would recommend Fatima to anyone." -Mieka Moody, mother

"I took yoga with Fatima at the UPenn gym and she is my favorite yoga teacher. From the first class you know that she is serious about her craft, but very sensitive to meeting people where they are in terms of experience and ability - and suggesting appropriate modifications. She is gentle with making adjustments, non-judgmental, and every once in a while erupts in an infectious laugh that puts everyone at ease. I highly recommend her. " -L. Gibson, University of Pennsylvania

"I booked an hour session with Fatima to ease my way into Yoga. I have a lot of consistent problems with my body, she took the time to test the waters and help pin point my problem areas and then work with them. By the time we had finished we had nearly hit the 2 hour mark, I felt as if we'd just gotten started!

The first thing I noticed after my one-on-one with Fatima was how light and joyful I felt traveling home. My body is usually a mess of tightly clenched muscles but our 2 hour session left me feeling like a well oiled machine. It was definitely a relief I haven't felt through my whole body in quite some time, my muscles seemed to relax and were finally working as a whole unit. " -Fletcher Van Vliet, musician

"Walking home from my session with Fatima, I felt light and jubilant, happy and free, grounded in my body and at home in who I am. She is incredibly generous with her time and willing to pause for questions and adjustments.

She had a thoughtfully choreographed sequence planned out for me, and her open and compassionate presence encouraged me to listen to my body and to ask for modifications if I didn't feel comfortable. Fatima listened to my body's wisdom and made adjustments without hesitation." -Monica Fauble, educator

"Thank you so much for the private lesson. It was the first time I've ever had such individualized attention in in a yoga class and it exceeded all my expectations. There were a few stretches that I have taken and added to my normal stretching routine.

This has given me a chance to target areas which previously felt locked up. Your mastery of what each pose should do and how it should appear would be noticeable, even for a novice." -Garrett McKay, graduate student
