Read More“I first met Val Minos when I began taking her Core Yoga class at the Flagstaff Aquaplex in November, 2017. I had never taken a yoga class, but after a Grand Canyon river trip last fall, was encouraged to do so. Although I have been a runner and a hiker all of my adult life, my body has begun to stiffen, and particularly my hips. I am 62, but like many Flagstaff residents enjoy daily physical exercise.
Within a month of participating in both Core and Yin Yoga, my hips were noticeably better and the stiffening had gone. I really enjoy the relaxation that yoga brings and the additional flexibility from stretching. Val’s yoga sessions are never the same: each day she prepares a different session, sometimes customizing her routines to the seasons or current weather. It has been a real pleasure to add yoga to my life, and to meet Valerie. I would encourage anyone to begin yoga practice and learn from her.” - Betsy S. Flagstaff

For the more challenging poses, she offers options so that I never feel judged or self-conscious. I have been attending Val’s classes for more than a year and I always feel flexible, strong, and energized afterward.” -Liz G. Arizona
