Testimonials

"I have been attending classes at Yoga H'om for seven years. During that span I have experienced several major issues to my health and personal life. I can say, without a doubt, that lessons learned at the studio have greatly enhanced my ability to navigate these travails; and for this I am forever grateful. So many times, during a trying moment, I can hear Donna's voice in my head saying "sthira sukham asanam" and it reminds me to be "steady" yet "comfortable"; not only on the mat, but in my life. Thank you Donna, and congratulations on nine wonderful years!" ~Dan Cipriani

"I started to study yoga with Donna in 1999, even before she founded Yoga H'om. I continue to come to class as often as possible, usually 5 days a week. I have taken class from teachers all over the US and in India. Donna is my favorite teacher. Donna is dedicated to learning Yoga from the world's best teachers and generously gives that teaching to her students. She has founded a studio which is open, bright, offers rigorous instruction and yet is filled with love and generosity. She has trained dozens of teachers now in 200 and 500 hour teacher training programs. Even though I no longer have the pleasure of taking class from Donna every time I come to the studio, her other teachers are outstanding, experienced, thoughtful and generous with adustments and help. I hope Donna never retires." ~ Kerry

"Thanks to my first experience with yoga at Yoga H'Om, I am enjoying downhill skiing for the first time in over 30 years, hiking, and playing vigorously with my grandchildren. My knee and flexibility problems are very easy to manage now.  Donna and her wonderful teachers have given me the skills for a wonderful practice both at the Yoga H'om studio and on my own mat, wherever it is." ~ Lynee

"I met Donna in 2009 while attending a yoga retreat in Mexico after experiencing some life altering medical challenges.  While I went to Mexico to find physical and mental balance, I found true inspiration and compassion that reignited my yoga practice. And so began my intense desire to study and share this knowledge with others by becoming a yoga teacher under Donna’s proficient guidance.  Two years and hundreds of hours of practice later I am still amazed at the grace I receive every time I step onto my mat at Yoga H’om.  Thank you!  I owe so much to you and the wonderful community that is Yoga H’om.” ~ Melissa

"When I started doing yoga with Donna I felt like I was discovering a brand new body. It seemed like each class she was able to add a new pose to my repertoire. Three years later she continues to take my body to new heights and possibilities continuing to earn me the name 'bendy Bridget'." ~ Bridget

"I'm so pleased to have found Yoga H'om shortly after relocating to Pittsburgh. It is not just a studio, but it is a community that welcomed me with warmth and encouragement. Under Donna's instruction my practice blossomed and my love of yoga is forever growing. Yoga H'om will always be close to my heart." ~ Lori

"Yoga H'om started my intense love affair with yoga. Whether a drop in student at a beginner class or a register yoga teacher trainee - Donna's wonderfully caring and precise instruction allows all students to become proficient and aware and carry these feelings to everyday life. No matter where I teach or learn, Donna at Yogahom will be my first teacher and inspiration." ~ Andrea, RYT and studio owner
