Heal, Healthy, & Wholeness with Yoga

I met Carolyn when I started teaching at YogaSix. She was the first person in my classes to welcome me to the studio and she helped me feel appreciated as an instructor. Carolyn has always walked into class with so much grace and positivity. It was contagious. Carolyn called me and told me about her breast cancer diagnosis and it broke my heart, especially because I didn’t want her to give up on her goal of becoming a yoga teacher. And she didn’t, Carolyn enrolled in the YTT program a 200 hr program for 8 weeks. She made every session, whether in person or virtually no matter how she felt. She was an inspiration to the entire class. Carolyn is the definition of a fighter and she didn’t let her circumstance define her. It was truly amazing to witness her journey. I believe we need more people in this world like Carolyn and she would be an amazing motivational coach and yoga instructor for anyone. This is someone that truly wants to help people live better physically and mentally.

Carolyn is an inspiration to all women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer.

As her nurse navigator and her YTT class mate, I was in awe of Carolyn as she immersed herself in yoga while going through chemotherapy, surgery and radiation.

She never missed a beat and I believe it was her regular yoga practice that helped Carolyn get through her treatments, mentally and physically.

Carolyn is a gift to all women who have breast cancer. Her presence is warm and encouraging.As a yoga teacher, she understands first hand the potential side effects of treatment and will support and guide women with love and compassion through their  journey!

I think any student would be lucky to have you as a yoga teacher because you are so caring, with such a healing, beautiful spirit. Your journey is incredibly inspiring and truly a testament to not only your strength — but also the connection between your mind, body + spirit. Being around you is healing + I know many others feel the same way! I can’t wait to flow with you!

On and off the yoga mat, Carolyn is empowering, connected, loving, knowledgeable, and motivational. Carolyn is truly a one-of-a-kind woman, with beautiful and amazing energy! 💜

On The Mat is the true embodiment of warrior driven yoga practice. Carolyn is so specific with each students needs while also establishing a  “Hygge” space conducive for connection. Before I took her class I didn’t have the tools nor technique needed to quiet my mind and soothe overall tension brought on by my day to day activities. Now, under her guidance I’m able to not only identify my bodies responses better but I can properly apply my yoga practice to target and alleviate them.

Taking a class with Carolyn is such an uplifting experience, not just physically but mentally and spiritually too. Every word and guided movement is given with intention. She is such a light that keeps on giving in the yoga community. I always felt warmly welcomed and fully accepted where I was each day I met her on the mat. Her patience and calmness combined with her pose choices is a relaxing, yet rejuvenating wind down. It’s not just a class, it’s a positive experience with Carolyn!
