Testimonials
"Ken's classes are always infused with Light, humor, gentleness, openness, clarity, spirituality and lovely guidance. He is really one of my favorite yoga teachers. I enjoy the short spiritual readings he does to offer wisdom words to the mind at the beginning of class and the optional lavender lotion at the end of class that makes me feel totally nourished and nurtured. The classes are just the right balance of challenging physicality blended with time to deepen postures, listen to one's own body intuition, and relax deeply. He has a beautiful energy and deep knowledge of the practice of yoga without artifice or ego." -K.D.
Why do naked yoga? Besides the obvious question of "Why NOT?" and the freedom of moving through poses without the restrictions of clothing, there's something very gently intimate about taking down the layers of fabric we use to wall ourselves off from each other in subtle but real ways. Moreover, mens naked yoga provides a healthy space in which to do so. As far as I can tell, it doesn't matter what age you are or what your body is like. It's not about that here. All the teachers I've worked with have been super sweet, created a very safe and accepting environment, and took us through great yoga. The folks in class have likewise been sweet and open... the vibe is very down to earth and real. I have never experienced a creepy sexual vibe or encountered anything that felt like judgment in this space. -Josh A.
Great yoga classes! Great instructors who offer lots of advice and feedback. Love the freedom and safety of practicing naked.
"Restorative yoga with Peter is an extremely relaxing, calming, and self nurturing experience. Unlike a typical flow class, which can pump up the volume and work you out in a sweaty series of asanas, Peter's restorative class allows you to go inside and relax deeply, holding poses using various props for a more prolonged period of time. This quiet holding is both challenging and soothing at the same time. It is a wonderful way to spend an evening, and truly is a gift to yourself." -Tom Mason
I never seem to comprehend the phrase "perfect yoga voice" until I practice yoga with Ken, both in an individual basis and in class. His gentle, soothing, yet deep and confident voice makes yoga directions easy to follow. Aside from his voice, he is very patient and understands the needs of his students and gauge the intensity of the class quite well. In a class setting, he would provide several alternatives to a yoga pose that accomodate the different level of yoga practice between the students. In other words, whether you are a new yoga student or someone that practice it for a long time, you can still benefit from taking his class. Ken is warm and friendly and certainly provide adequate attention for new and returning students. I thoroughly enjoy his classes as I have seen great improvement in my flexibility and coordination over the past year. I am an exercise physiologist and I usually recommend clients to practice yoga as part of his/her flexibilty training component and Ken would be the top name on my list whom I refer my clients to! -Tim
