I’ve had a great experience attending Josephine’s classes for the last few months. She is such an amazing and attentive teacher with lots of knowledge. Whether If it’s your first yoga experience or you are more advanced or have specific injuries she will take care of you in her classes!! Definitely bring your husbands and partners they will love it!!

It’s a great environment for all levels of yoga practice as well as for learning to become a yoga teacher. It has been a month since I started practicing Yoga with Josephine and my body, mind and soul absolutely love it! She is well experienced, patient and flexible in her way of teaching adapting the poses to each student individually! She really cares about her students and you can feel her passion and love for yoga in the way she nurtures each one of her students. Classes start on time and there is sufficient space for practice for everyone that has registered as we need to pre register for each class. I am so grateful to have found Josephine and I wish I had come across her sooner!

Josephine teaches with a high level of professionalism and expertise, and an open heart. I have been teaching yoga for the past six years, and I feel fortunate that Josephine offers online classes for all levels of practice. Her teachings have challenged and elevated my personal practice. Much gratitude!

A friend highly recommended Institut Yoga Essentiel and Josephine as I was wanting to get back to yoga after a 5 year absence due to a few bad yoga teacher experiences. Josephine is just excellent. She talks enough but not too much in a quiet voice, gives clear and precise instructions, and corrects each person according to their level and ability. She has a subtle intelligent humour that keeps the tone right. The studio space is very nicely done and bright. I am really enjoying this class; my only regret is not finding her sooner!

The studio is extremely clean and the teachers are highly skilled in both Yoga themselves as well as how to instruct students to properly achieve the poses. I feel as if I have made more progress here than I have at other studios as the teachers know how to analyze what's giving you trouble and provide modified postures to help you work towards larger goals.

Josephine is an incredibly knowledgable teacher who is dedicated to sharing many facets of the yoga tradition (not only physical postures). Her teaching style is direct and challenging, while also being warm, humorous, and attentive to the needs of her students; she understands and respects her students’ capacity and limitations, and aptly adapts the level of challenge for everyone in the room. Josephine’s precise instructions and passion for the practice have encouraged my commitment to my personal practice both in class and at home, and I so appreciate being a part of the dedicated and friendly community she has created at Institut Yoga Essentiel. For beginners and advanced students alike, I highly recommend her classes.

In a city full of great yoga studios and instructors, Institut Yoga Essentiel truly stands out. Josephine has built a great environment and is an exceptional instructor. Her method of teaching and attention to detail really elevate your practice. You can't help but feel that you are in good hands as your practice steadily improves. Josephine and her school get 13/10.

Best Yoga classes I've had so far! Josephine, our teacher is amazing; she gives step by step instructions on how to safely get into a pose and be properly aligned. She also watches everyone all the time to make sure we doing things right and getting the most benefit out of the exercise.

I've been going to weekly yoga with Josephine for almost a year now, and it's been such a delight. She is extremely knowledgeable, approachable, kind and sprinkles humor into every class. I always know that if I go to class I will come away from it glad that I went and feeling better about myself and the world. The people in her class are always very nice and friendly, it's a wonderful little community that Josephine has curated. Not to mention she is able to teach some of her classes in both French and English! Beginning my in-person yoga class experience with Josephine was the best choice I could have made, and my hamstrings have never been more flexible!

I am so grateful to have found this institute. Josephine is an amazing teacher, she is very attentive and has tremendous knowledge in her field. The attention she gives each of her students is so remarkable, she makes sure to remember who needs what in all her classes. Her energy and kindness makes me feel very comfortable. If you are someone looking to make a positive change in life, I would highly recommend this class. Just get a trial session and you will be sold on it. My lower back pain has reduced, something years of physiotherapy could not solve.
