    Hello (again) from Yokohama, Japan! I practiced hot yoga for two years at a studio here in town, but recently the classes have gotten so crowded that it was hard to really chill out. I quit that and started Yogaglo, and I'm SO glad that I did. I can take things at my own pace, and also take up as much space as I want!! :D (Yogaglo is MUCH cheaper too!) Thank you, Steven and everyone else at Yogaglo. <3
    • Steven Espinosa     Sep 18th, 2012
      Hello Lauren! Thank you for sharing such a great story! It really makes me happy that you are enjoying the classes on YogaGlo! Keep up the great work and enjoy taking up all the space you want! All the best, Steven.

  • Jamie Waskey     Jul 23rd, 2012

  • Olivia Dale     Jul 23rd, 2012
    You are my favorite teacher, Steven. Thank you so much. Do you ever teach vinyasa flow classes?
    • Steven Espinosa     Jul 24th, 2012
      Hi Olivia! Thank you so much for that very sweet compliment! That really means a lot to me. Yes, I do occasionally teach a more classic vinyasa flow class. But my main interest as a teacher is in teaching solid foundational alignment technique first. Then when a student wants to take a more classic vinyasa style class they will know how to do so safely and protect their bodies from potential injury. That's really important to me. Thanks again Olivia for the sweet note! I really appreciate it and you! Steven.
  • Pam Wrigley     Jul 21st, 2012

  • Tim Cater     Jul 20th, 2012
    Hello from France! Thanks again for another great class, Steven. When our teacher over here, Noemi, left to move back to the States, she put us on to YogoGlo. We're a team of 5 friends who get together every week, and we love your classes as they really remind us of our great teacher, Noemi. Looking forward to the next class. Tim, Richard, Helen, Lori and Dot.
    • Steven Espinosa     Jul 21st, 2012
      Hey Tim! That is so incredible! You must be speaking of my dear friend Noemi Rossler! If so, she was one of my very early students back when I first began teaching 12 years ago! I heard she was teaching in France and had recently moved back to the states. I am sure she is a great teacher and that you loved her very much. But it also makes me happy that she suggested YogaGlo and that you and your friends are enjoying the classes. Keep up the great work and say hello to Richard, Helen, Lori and Dot for me! Ciao! Steven.

    Hi Steven. It is me from Turks and Caicos now in Canada. Can you forward me an email address that I can ask for technical help. Classes keep stopping, sometimes within a minute or two. Today it froze after one half the class.

    Many thanks. Linda

    I'm from Northern Ontario and I just want to give you a huuuge thank you Stephen. Your classes always make me feel so happy, and great about myself. I actually smiled during the crescent sequences. The way you teach and explain is great and I always feel so strong during and after each practice! Namaste and thank you and everyone behind Yogaglo again! :)

  • Carol Sargent     Jul 15th, 2012
    YogaGlobal is awesome! I am so glad to have this resource. It makes a big difference to me as my schedule does not permit yoga on days and at hours that classes exist in my town. I tell my husband that "Steven and I have a meeting" and he knows that the mat is coming out! ;-)
    • Steven Espinosa     Jul 16th, 2012
      Carol! OMG! That is so awesome! What a great story! It really makes me so happy that YogaGlo is making such a big difference in your life. We couldn't do it with you, too! Until our next "meeting" All Love, Steven.
