Students' Stories
I have taken group and private yoga classes from Valucha for around 15 years. Of the people I know, she is among those I respect and admire most—both professionally and on a personal level. She is an incredibly gifted teacher, and a deeply knowledgeable one. Yoga is at the center of her life, and as a teacher and practitioner she is unparalleled. Despite her impressive experience and accomplishments in her field, she is very modest and fully focused on helping others. Valucha’s blend of profound understanding of yoga and sport injuries, and her rehabilitation skills, her insight and knowledge of the body, her qualities such as generosity, strength of spirit, and warmth and kindness all augment each other to make her an amazing teacher.

Valucha, Thank you!!! Your class has truly helped me. I have a lot of injuries from a car accident I had. I was suppose to have a knee replacements so there are a lot of things I cannot do. But I was so surprised when after 3 times in your class, I am able to bend my knees all the way while holding the bar and do a full squat. This is a huge thing for me. You are a great teacher with a beautiful healing spirit, I am so glad I am taking your class. You are truly a wonderful inspiration and a miraculous healer/teacher.
I have been taking Valucha’s classes for about 4 years now… and at the end of each class I feel so energized and relaxed—almost as though I am walking on clouds (literally!). I have taken yoga classes all over the world and never have I come across the style and technique that Valucha offers… she touches every part of the body. She seems to relieve stress, pain and like I said… when you leave her class, you feel like you have a new body! I can’t say enough about her yoga classes… If I could say one word to anyone thinking of yoga, try other yoga teachers and then go to one of Valucha’s classes. You will see it’s like no other… it has been a god send for me… thank you Valucha!
Valucha’s teaching has had such a positive impact on my life. Due to my profession as a musician, I sit for many hours a day in the same position, causing stiffness in my neck, shoulders and lower back. Valucha’s classes have really helped me stretch out and loosen these areas. I really look forward to her classes every week!
Valucha’s yoga barr class is amazing! Why? Because she masters what she teaches, physically, mentally and spiritually. She will take you from the level at where you are and will lead you to the next level gracefully and safely in 1 hour and half. Her knowledge of the body in motion is beyond expectations. From her experiences of past injuries and healing those past traumas, she draws her wisdom which is infused in every of her classes. She delivers a therapeutic quality to her class. After the class, you feel refreshed and renewed, toned and centered. She is a real blessing!
