CLIENT REVIEWS:
"Your classes are wonderful and made a huge difference for me." student at bebe stores inc. Jan. 2016
"Stacie is nothing short of amazing. I was new to yoga 100% when I started practicing with her, and she was excellent as a teacher and guide. She not only has a deep understanding of yoga, but is great at giving one on one attention to her students. Such a pleasant energy too!" Jennifer S., HR Director at bebe stores, inc. (onsite weekly yoga classes)
"I had the pleasure of attending Stacie's yoga class she instructed on Tuesday & Thursdays at my work. I'm a plus-size woman and often times its a hard for me to do many of the poses in traditional yoga classes. Stacie's motto is to do what you can and there are not set in stone rules for yoga. She made me feel very comfortable, relaxed and surprisingly limber after her sessions." Kathy, HR Director Berkeley furniture company 2016
"...where to start. Stacie came to our corporate offices and really moved the dial for all of us. we had many different needs and many diverse capabilities and ailments. she was able to help each and everyone of us. she constructed a program that could challenge us all without any pressure. we came out of those sessions relaxed, focused and closer to enlightenment. she's sorely missed. but we wish her the best in sunny florida." weekly student at Berkeley, CA IO Companies class student 2015-2016
"Stacie came to our corporate office twice a week to teach all of us office folk yoga and she did an amazing job! She gave clear and concise instructions and really helped us with our breathing/relaxation techniques. In addition to the class, she was able to teach us some simple yoga moves mixed in with more complex ones for beginners and people who wanted to be challenged. Overall, we were amazed by her flexibility and willingness to adapt the class to whomever was taking it." Clare, Berkeley, CA Furniture company class student 2016
Stacie is friendly and patient, so no matter if it's your first time doing yoga or your millionth tMy part of her yoga class is shavasana...just kidding. She's great and I really enjoyed stretchin' it out with her.
"Lyris employees have enjoyed Stacie’s teaching for many months now. She is a very knowledgeable and popular member of our wellness effort and has tailored the classes just for us, always mindful of newer attendees and offering modifications for all levels. Our goal here is balance of mind and body to reduce stress and increase focus during the work day. She is wonderful." Mary M. HR Generalist Lyris, Inc. Dec. 2015
"Stacie Dooreck has been a reliable a dedicated yoga instructor for our corporate yoga co-op for over 5 years. In that time I have observed that she is able to connect with, encourage and guide individuals ranging from the complete novice to the more experienced yogi. Her demeanor puts people
at ease while at the same time conveying the seriousness and worthiness of yoga. If there was a two-thumbs-up-asana, I would strike that pose for Stacie any time." Mark J. Yoga Coordinator at for Corporate Yoga classes in Daly City, CA 2008-2012
“Stacie is amazing. If you are new to yoga or you want to improve your technique, Stacie is the person to guide you thorough the process. I tried so many yoga instructors and I couldn't get into yoga until I took one of Stacie's classes. She is amazing! "Danny B. student at corporate classes at Lucas Films; San Francisco, CA 2005-2014
“Stacie is a great yoga instructor- one of my favorites. Her practice has a great balance of the physical, mental and spiritual sides of yoga- focusing not only on asanas but breathing and meditation as well. She is very knowledgeable and does a great job of describing the poses and different ways to get more out of the practice. I love the fact that she’s “in tune” with the class and the people. She will give extra help to those that need it and will make modifications for those that are injured or pregnant. She brings enough variety every week to keep things fresh. Her yoga class is my weekly salvation- I can’t recommend her enough…” Andrea C., student in onsite company classes at Full Bloom, Inc, Menlo Park, CA 2005-06
