The professional quality of instructions offered on Judith's Zoom classes is wonderful! Each time I take a class with Judith there is at least one moment during class where I feel so good and so grateful to have a body. Her teaching methods are exceptional in how she creates a space in class that fosters a positive inner-dialogue between my thoughts and my body's abilities. Even during the more rigorous poses there is a language of kindness and gentleness that comes through Judith's clear and concise instructions. She is a masterful teacher.

See updates below! I've been taking yoga classes with Judith for several years now. It's the only exercise program I've ever stuck with and I think most of it is due to Judith's ability to instruct and be so helpful with the poses. I look forward to the classes and Judith is always warm and welcoming. She has a way of making you feel comfortable in your own skin and in your own body.

She constantly gives you tidbits on what the poses do for your body, internally and externally. She gives us ways to make the positions more difficult if we want to stretch ourselves. I've had other yoga instructors, but Judith is my very favorite. I plan to get my husband to a class one day and I know she'll make him feel welcome and at ease. Thank you, Judith! Update on 7/31/21: Judith Valerie is not only a professional, friendly, patient yoga instructor, she has become my friend.

I trust her to help me get what I need from her classes. She manages to teach many different body types and fitness levels without making anyone feel self conscious. Her class has made a positive influence on my well-being. She kept her classes going by using Zoom during the pandemic and she did a great job making us feel welcome and still part of a group.

She's the best! Updated 12/8/21: I retired near the end of summer and it has taken me a bit of time to get my new freedom figured out. During this time, Judith's yoga classes thru Zoom have been there to help keep me centered. What a great Zoom yoga instructor she has become! Music is one of my favorite parts and she has made sure we have good music. Judith is patient and kind, as well as professional and knowledgeable about yoga and what's good for us. Please give her classes a try. You won't regret it!

I never would have thought to try yoga on Zoom but when Judith's class went virtual almost 2 years ago, I followed her eagerly. Judith is a wonderful teacher and being at home at the end of a session means I don't have to drive home with my totally relaxed jello body. Sharing a yoga prayer at the end of each session is icing on the cake. Namaste.

Judith's class is the most amazing yoga experience I've ever participated in. Judith's lovely spirit upholds her myriad years of training to create a class that is uplifting and calming for the body, soul and mind. Delightful.

I have been taking Yoga with Judith Valerie for a few years now and have been very happy. I have essentially learned allot about yoga from Judith who compliments yoga with meditation. I think that many yoga class classes can lead you through the motions but Judith guides you through good form and pays individual attention to what your body needs. The session environment flows in such a peaceful manner that allows you to get totally immersed in the experience. I recommend her classes.

I've been fortunate to attend Judith's yoga classes for the last 6 years - the last year via ZOOM. Judith makes yoga challenging, yet fun :-. She is always responsive to our individual needs, helping us through any sore spots. I look forward to yoga each week - it keeps me going!

I've been taking yoga with Judith for 20 years. She's a wonderful teacher that can work with students of all levels. She weaves in a variety of styles and there is always something new for me to learn. I enjoy my weekly classes but even more importantly I enjoy what yoga has done for my everyday life. Judith has been a big part of that.

Judith Valerie is the best yoga teacher I have ever had. When I lived in Raleigh full-time, I took her class in person for about seven years. But when my husband and I moved away, I had to give it up. One of the few good things about the pandemic was that she began offering her classes online via Zoom, so I could take them again, to my great delight. Judith cares deeply about her students.

She offers a range of classes so that regardless of how experienced you are at yoga, you can find a class that suits your needs. Besides the physical exercises, I appreciate the deep relaxation at the end of each session and the emphasis on mindfulness at the beginning and during each session. I could not recommend Judith's classes more highly,

Excellent yoga classes for injuries and aging issues. Judith's yoga classes have complimented my doctor's recommendation for physical therapy and strength training to heal my ongoing lower back and hip issues. With her instruction of yoga I'm pain-free all-day for the first time in years. It's a yoga class that truly teaches to many levels each and every time so I can customize my workout to what I need that day and also challenge myself when I'm up to it. Judith has also mastered the virtual format and offers a quality online class so I feel like I can continue signing in at home without feeling like I'm missing anything from in-person sessions. I also love the meditative tone of her classes that don't seem over the top or religious but give me something to reflect on throughout the the day.

I started studying yoga with Judith Valerie soon after I got to Raleigh in the mid-1990s, and I can say I've never had a better yoga teacher. Judith has found that delicate line between helping her students be mindful about the limits of their own bodies and at the same time offering us the chance to develop our capacities. She's funny, responsive, and creative in setting a tone at each class that removes the stresses of the day and promotes our finding a center of calm and relaxation. I highly recommend her.

Judith is the best yoga teacher I've ever encountered. She's warm, thoughtful, and deeply cares about her students. She helps point out places you can improve your form and modify poses to help with any injuries or limitations you are experiencing. Highly recommend!

I've left every class relaxed and refreshed. Judith has a way of drawing my mind's eye away from the clamor of my busy day to the rhythm of my breath. Her pace lets me find the tension in each muscle and release. I'm stronger, more flexible and happier. Thanks Judith!

I have studied yoga with Judith for over two decades, in studio and for the past year and a half on ZOOM. I credit my flexibility of mind, body and spirit to the practice of yoga and to Judith's knowledgeable, encouraging and inspired teaching and her ever fresh approach. Always bringing us back to ourselves and the moment while stretching and strengthening our spirits and bodies. Thank you Judith!

After reading some positive reviews, I tried Judith's Gentle Yoga class on Tuesday night. The location was very convenient. As for my background, I am a female, 27 years old and had done some advanced yoga in college several years ago. I really enjoyed Judith's class. For the Tuesday night Gentle Yoga, it was a pretty diverse group - men, women, large age range, all at different fitness/flexibility levels. Judith was great at accommodating everyone.

You can tell she really knows her stuff! As a comparison, I previously tried the trendy "hot yoga" at Indigo Studio and found Judith's class to be much less intimidating and an overall better experience.

Judith has a wonderful way of teaching precise yoga moves along with some great meditation skills too. She has a polite way of readjusting your position so that you get the most out of it without injuring your body. She always make sure everyone understands the pose and is comfortable with it. Judith Valerie was just what the doctor ordered for me! Try it out, she's worth a shot.;
