Testimonials

  • “I have been taking classes with April for almost a decade, having had the great fortune to meet her when she started her yoga teaching here in New York. Over the time I’ve known her she has become my favorite yoga teacher. She has taught me key insights into how to take care of my injured body, how to understand the mechanics of how muscles and joints can connect in a more harmonious manner so I become stronger, while simultaneously offering opportunities for introspection and meditation. Perhaps most importantly, she has taught me that it’s ok to laugh when I try and then fall, a lesson I gratefully take with me to in class and through life…and a lesson she graciously re-teaches every time I forget. I am profoundly happy that I get to experience the delightful, fun, knowledgeable, and wholly unique experience that is yoga with April Evans.”              -Tali de Assis

 

  • “I love taking April’s classes, she explains the form and strength of a pose which gives me a new found appreciation and makes my yoga practice stronger. I also love her stories which she shares as we flow (Rama and Sita!)  and at the end of her class, my savasana is relished! (not like “OMG, its over :))”    -CC

 

  • “I have taken classes, both in groups and private sessions, with April Evans for over a year.  I practice gentle yoga and when I started I was unsure of what kind of practice was best for me.  I found in April an excellent teacher who steers her students to practice in ways best suited to each individual.  Even in large classes, April was mindful of every student’s needs and routinely offered helpful variations.  Yoga practice with April strengthened my body and boosted my confidence.  I am very grateful to April for her instructions, insights, and her lovely, empathetic persona.  She is a much loved and sought-after yoga instructor.”      -Annie Thomas

 

  • “I’ve been very fortunate to have practiced with April for many years in different setups across the city. She is very true to her own practice and style and that reflects in her classes and sequencing. I feel instantly grounded and through her practice have evolved at multiple levels – mentally, physically and energetically.”     -M. Khanna

 

  • “April has been my teacher since September 2019 and she brings with her everyday a passion for yoga that truly embodies her  lifestyle.  She is an extremely caring and thoughtful teacher and it shows in everything that she does and practices. She has helped me deepen my practice on a spiritual level and through her deep knowledge of meditation techniques, yogic philosophy, mythology and teaching vinyasa flow in a creative style. I highly recommend studying with April if you are looking to enhance your yoga practice. In my opinion, she is leader and visionary in the yoga community.”  -Adam Rudich

 

  • “April is a highly experienced and committed yoga teacher who brings creativity, humor and a fresh perspective to each class. She chants beautifully, recites poetry and recounts stories that draw you more deeply into your practice.  Her subtle cues and mindful adjustments are transformative.”    -A. Saxe

 

  • “I have had a home yoga practice for over 15 years. I started practicing at Sonic last year and was fortunate enough to have taken April’s class and it took my practice and my Love to a new level. April inspired me to become a certified yoga instructor, and I should be fortunate enough to one day be able to make people experience Yoga as April has done for me.”  -Vasel Smajlaj
