“I am honored to have been practicing with Greg Tebb since 2005. His is patient, intuitive and creative, offering insightful and thoughtful guidance with variations/modifications as needed. He meets each student where they're at in their practice and in their life, encouraging development with an inspiring balance of focus and joyful humor. As a Yoga teacher myself, I'm extremely grateful to lay down the role of teacher and step on my mat as a student to experience a supportive and transformative practice under his tutelage. A teachers' teacher is a rare gift. That he is.”

“Greg is the rare, authentic teacher that knows anatomy, pays attention to your practice, and has given me guidance that was truly tailored to my practice. Only through working with Greg have I fixed chronic physical ailments.”

“I started practicing with Greg in 2010. Prior to that I had practiced with several other teachers some of them were highly acclaimed and maybe rightfully so… However by that time, my knees were half-broken (I began wearing braces), my entire body was in pain and completely disbalanced. I was stuck without any hope of ever progressing beyond primary series or even fully completing them. Many things have changed since then. Greg helped me to build a consistent and steady practice. His adjustments are carefully measured for each of his many students because he has a unique understanding of a human body and it’s dynamics. He always remembers our strengths, weaknesses, idiosyncrasies and calibrates the practice accordingly. The age of his students ranges from ~ 20 to 90 and everyone makes a solid progress. I was extremely fortunate to find this teacher.”
