Judith Valerie Yoga

"I have been studying yoga with Judith for over 20 years off an on, mostly on. Her attention to physical health, explanation of why and what we are doing, skill and kindness have been a constant source of physical and mental wellbeing for me."

"I have been practicing yoga ( along with my very young 80 year old mother) with Judith for well over 14 years. Though in- person classes pre pandemic were ideal for correcting body and pose postures, Judith seamlessly transitioned to zoom classes during Covid so her students could stay engaged. I recently gifted a private lesson to my mother. Judith arrived with a lesson plan catering to our needs and we had a lovely hour of one on one attention with this outstanding yoga instructor. She is truly the very best. Treat yourself to a private ....such a nice way to revitalize and focus in the comforts of home."

"I am so glad that I found Judith’s zoom classes! I am able to join in from Chicago and hardly miss a week. Her clear directions, cues and inspiration, not to mention the invitation to have our voice is such a gift. After class I feel restored and rejuvenated. I have more energy to get through the rest of the week. As a yoga teacher myself I appreciate her balance of flow and strength building, focused lesson plans, all creating a supportive virtual community. Judith Valerie’s yoga is a safe haven in this busy world."

"I have been taking yoga for years with Judith but have especially enjoyed her Zoom classes and feel they have strengthened my commitment and improved my practice - taking it to a new level. The flexibility Zoom offers and participating in class in my own home has saved time, offered more classes, and added relaxation and meditation time. I now practice with Judith at least three times a week and enjoy greater flexibility, strength and mental health. Judith is a joy and Zoom gives me greater access to her! Namaste:)"

"See updates below! 1/2/23 Judith does a great job with Zoom yoga classes. She's been a lifesaver during the pandemic and I still enjoy her gentle yoga classes. Her natural way of teaching makes practicing enjoyable and beneficial. I hope you'll give her classes a try. First review: I've been taking yoga classes with Judith for several years now. It's the only exercise program I've ever stuck with and I think most of it is due to Judith's ability to instruct and be so helpful with the poses. I look forward to the classes and Judith is always warm and welcoming. She has a way of making you feel comfortable in your own skin and in your own body. She constantly gives you tidbits on what the poses do for your body, internally and externally. She gives us ways to make the positions more difficult if we want to stretch ourselves. I've had other yoga instructors, but Judith is my very favorite. I plan to get my husband to a class one day and I know she'll make him feel welcome and at ease. Thank you, Judith! Update on 7/31/21: Judith Valerie is not only a professional, friendly, patient yoga instructor, she has become my friend. I trust her to help me get what I need from her classes. She manages to teach many different body types and fitness levels without making anyone feel self conscious. Her class has made a positive influence on my well-being. She kept her classes going by using Zoom during the pandemic and she did a great job making us feel welcome and still part of a group. She's the best! Updated 12/8/21: I retired near the end of summer and it has taken me a bit of time to get my new freedom figured out. During this time, Judith's yoga classes thru Zoom have been there to help keep me centered. What a great Zoom yoga instructor she has become! Music is one of my favorite parts and she has made sure we have good music. Judith is patient and kind, as well as professional and knowledgeable about yoga and what's good for us. Please give her classes a try. You won't regret it!"
