Private Yoga Student Feature: HELEN

What's your name?

• Helen Charbonneau

Why did you choose Liberty Life Yoga for your private yoga classes?

• I’ve known Sarah Memme for many years because she taught my kids swimming years ago. She was a great instructor & assumed she would be just as great running a yoga practice. My private instructor Christine Noonan is absolutely wonderful.
  

Tell us a bit about your yoga journey.

• I’ve practiced yoga for many years at various studios. A few years ago I decided to start doing it at home using an app because I enjoyed the solitude. I realized that if I wanted to further my yoga practice I’d benefit more with one on one private instruction.

What are some benefits you have seen from working one on one with an instructor?

• The key benefit is having the lessons being tailored to my specific needs and desires. Depending on how I’m feeling each class, Christine works on any issues I may be having with parts of my body or focuses on the areas I want to improve on.

What pose are you currently working on? Your favourite one or one that you find challenging? Why?

• Sun salutations is definitely my favourite. All the components when done properly are so challenging and I love that.

​Any words of wisdom for someone who wants to do private yoga lessons?

• I believe you can only learn how to do poses properly is through private lessons.
