I recently completed a 4 week "Spring Cleaning" series with Jennie Williford and can honestly say that it deserves 5+++++ stars. I have been practicing Iyengar yoga for about 17 years with numerous teachers and Jennie ranks amongst the best. This series allowed us to find spaces within our bodies that we did not know exist. Jennie's teaching style and her instructions are very clear and precise. As I have a hearing impairment, I often find it difficult to hear instructions, however this never occurred during Jennie's workshops. I look forward to continued studies at the Yoga Place and with Jennie.

I love my class at the Yoga Place. Everyone needs Yoga and I highly recommend The Yoga Place to anyone who wants to keep their body and mind healthy, strong and connected. Since I have started Yoga at the Yoga Place my posture has improved and I no longer have the pain in my neck from arthritis. I will continue to study at The Yoga Place and I urge you to as well.

After having major back surgery I've found Yoga to be one of the best rehab programs. The Yoga Place instructors are extremely competent and knowledgeable regarding the instruction and philosophy of Iyengar Yoga. It has been my experience that their instruction has enhanced my recovery and prevented further injury. As I continue to recover I look forward to taking more classes.

Very clean and convenient, walkable from my house and taught by people who studied Yoga under the masters from India. What more is there to day?

I find that doing yoga at the Yoga Place challenges me in so many ways! A total mind and body experience for anyone, at any age, with any limitations. I leave the studio feeling better mentally and physically everytime! Can not say enough about the knowledge and skills of the instructions! By far the best studio in town!

We are so lucky to have such thorough, competent yoga instruction in La Crosse. I started as an injured beginner with a broken collar bone, and was taught with such patience and skill that now I can do things I never dreamed I would be able too! I even got taller! This is one of the best reasons to live in La Crosse.
