Her style is both gentle AND precise! She knows how to encourage us and offer challenges, but even a beginner like I am can improve under her leadership. I can really feel the difference when she offers corrections, and she knows how to explain things so that I understand AND can then take away the corrections and use them on my own. She knows how to challenge each person to do their best, without putting too much pressure, so that you come away feeling motivated!

I've benefited from several years of instruction
from Talina, and am still impressed with her
knowledge and empathy; she notices and gears her instruction to the individuals in her
class.

Talina has a gift of making everybody feel very comfortable and at ease, thus helping every student release his full potential. All that without sacrificing the quality of teaching. You can tell she knows exactly what's she's doing when she teaches - all those years of training result in a very thorough, yet light, with incredible sense of humor, instruction. Rest assured, she watches every student and will make sure that you get the most out of your workout and feel great about yourself and the world in general! I highly recommend her.

I started yoga and pilates 5 years ago and Talina was one of my instructors. Her style was very helpful when I started yoga in my late 40's and continues to keep me motivated and challenged as my skills have advanced. Her style encourages students to do their personal best in a non-competitive environment. I'd recommend Talina to anyone whether just getting started or wanting to take their practice to the next level.
