Alina is incredibly knowledgable. She provides very intensive training for each of her sessions. Her choices of literature are exceptional. Her tips and training techniques are excellent.

An extremely thorough teacher and experience. The course modules did have extensive reading and provided a deep understanding of anatomy which really deepened my understanding of the subtle body and interaction with asanas. I am utterly grateful for the depth of work this teacher has put into the course material and her own extensive fully rounded knowledge which she shares generously.
