“Brings Me Inexpressible Joy”

The magic, the healing I feel as I move through those ancient, powerful steps — breathing in and expressing their energies — brings me almost inexpressible joy. I smile so hard that my face hurts. Thank you for holding space for that beauty.

“Such Accessible Joy”

I’ve been a long-time dance & movement student. Yarrow’s teaching is clear, challenging, and right for my body. INjoy is a gorgeous, vibrant studio!

“So Much Love & Joy”

You have brought so much love & joy to my life, flowing with rhythm and community. I just pulled my long yellow gauze skirt out of the closet for our next dance class! Gratitude to you!
