“I am a graduate of Sam’s 200 and 300-hour trainings. I was very pleased with the initial training and was thrilled at how much more depth and new information we were exposed to in the advanced training. I am in awe of Sam’s talent for weaving ancient yogic traditions and practices in with modern-day science, lifestyles, and needs. She does an amazing job at exposing her students to diverse approaches and applications of yoga to assist them in finding their own path and passions… She uses fantastic teaching aids and presents information in multiple formats to reach her students visually, auditory, and kinesthetically. Most of all, I truly appreciate the safe environment Sam creates to encourage and support each student… She models ‘whole-hearted living’ and self-actualization by following her passions, sharing her unique gifts and shining her inner light! She is a beacon calling her students into connecting with and sharing their best selves too!” – Megan L.
