A True Yogi- I found Carolyn during my time of need for stress relief & she was able to provide me the support I needed. I am grateful for her warm & nurturing presence and her relaxed attitude & guidance. There were options for her classes and I went with one on one zoom, given that I've never Yoga before, I felt more comfortable with lots of personal attention. She's always able to bring me to that state of feeling grounded and very relaxed after each class, a yoga high. LOL It was exactly what I needed physically and mentally. Communication is also wonderful with Carolyn, she touch bases regularly to see if there is something specific I like to work on and she'll adjust accordingly or sometimes just checking in to see where my headspace is at :) Multiple options for classes. One on one, group, special workshops. Read her Bio, she's been practicing yoga since 5th grade! Wow!! Thank you Carolyn! read more

Carolyn is a Godsend to me. I would encourage anyone (Everyone really!) to sample her amazing work as it is her calling and gift. Yesterday's zoom yoga session was like a doctor's prescription, it healed me in immeasurable ways. With a pesky mode of arthritis that extensive supplements, sleep regime, nutraceuticals, gentle stretching and pharmaceuticals can't make much difference, this form of physical attention to the body absolutely helps! Try it, you will not be sorry. Again, another devotee for years, but good things take time. So try it and don't give up. Try it again. read more

I've been practicing yoga with Carolyn Tracy for a number of years, and I'm drawn to her style of teaching because she draws you in with her soft voice, her music and teaching style into a relaxed state. She is very knowledgeable in all things yoga, and she makes me laugh and also brings spiritual lessons into our practice which makes me think and be filled with gratitude. I can tell she loves yoga, and she has shared about her core values of connection; thus she takes time to reach out to her students checking in with us. To me, that's a rarity. I always feel safe when guided by Carolyn, she explains the Yin Yoga practice very well. It's my go to when I need to rebalance my energies. read more

This is a wonderful well run video yin yoga class. It's very relaxing and gives you a full body stretch and is good for every level of fitness. If you are looking for a very knowledgeable teacher who is interested in your body and mind health. This is the class for you. read more

I never took yoga seriously until I took Carolyn's yin class. She has the most relaxing and welcoming voice that ultimately helps you dig into your practice and poses even deeper. Yoga can sometimes be intimidating especially for someone who is inexperienced however with Carolyn as your guide and instructor you will easily fall in love with what yoga does for you both physically and mentally. Carolyn is extremely knowledgeable and approachable. During or after class she answers questions and helps you modify whenever needed. I also took my mom to a private lesson with Carolyn and she loved it to say the least. I connected with Carolyn over email. I gave her details abt my moms physical condition and what she is looking to get out of our private lesson. She was able to tailor an hour long lesson specifically for our needs and even had the room set up for us when we arrived. She was able to take our payment by cash or check. Thank you Carolyn for being you! My mom and I will be back for another private lesson soon. read more

When it comes to yoga you'd be hard pressed to find a better instructor than Carolyn. She masterfully looks out for and elevates every aspect of the experience. From lights, to aroma, to a pleasant voice tone, to walking among the yogis for real time optimization. Carolyn hits it out of the park in every aspect. And being so experienced, Carolyn is able to listen and watch for what is needed or missing at any point in time and put it in. And when it comes to Yin Yoga, you won't find anyone who knows more, can demo the moves better, explain it more clearly than Carolyn. If Yin Yoga was Kung Fu, Carolyn would be Bruce Lee - she's that good! read more

Carolyn's Yin class is such a blissful experience that I look forward to every week. In fact, a smile comes to my face just thinking of how yin-ful I'm going to be getting next week! When I think of Carolyn's Yin class the one word that comes to my mind is 'delicious'. I may be using this word from Carolyn's repertoire of words of wisdom that she shares in class. They are like tiny bite size morsels' of knowledge she imparts throughout her class that truly leaves me feeling enlightened. I feel like I am getting a world-class experience each time I unroll my matt for her. However, 'delicious' the class may be I always feel satisfied and inspired knowing that my mind, body and spirit have been stretched to their 'edge'. I am now a believer in Yin Yoga and will keep coming back for more. Before her class I was having trouble sleeping and getting headaches, but once I started it, the sleep has come back and has been so deep. Oh yeah, those pesky headaches have gone away too! Thanks Carolyn! read more

found the yoga studio too hot to be comfortable for any yoga sessions. too costly. i would rather do yoga in the park instead with carolyn.

If you are new to yoga, Carolyn is probably the best instructor in trivalley to get started. For beginners, it's critical to find the right instructor to start the journey. With abundant yoga studios based on different philosophy, first class might lead to unsatisfactory experience if not good fit and eventually give up before discovering the true benefit. Part of luck, I found Carolyn from recommendations. My first class was simply amazing. She was most kind to each student and paid special attention to beginners. She was articulate, knowledgable, and caring. There were many advanced yogis in the class. she made sure beginners feel comfortable. The first class was mentally relaxing, yet physically challenging. The main reason I try yoga is to relieve back pain in addition to physical therapy. The next morning I felt less painful. Even though full recovery is going to be long battle, this is an amazing result by meditation, or body stretching, or both. Whatever it was, it was self evident yoga was helping. And it was Carolyn to made the magic happen. read more

I just did the yin teacher training at Let the Yin Begin with Carolyn Tracy. I had a very empowering healing experience. Talk about getting ripped open from the inside out. I released a lot of emotions and truly believe Carolyn's training has helped my healing process. I learned so much not only about myself but about the yin practice as well. I would highly recommend what Carolyn has to offer. Not only is she very personable but she is very professional and very organized. I would say she is very good at what she does! She's gifted and meant to pass on this wisdom. Thank you Carolyn so much for what you have given me. ~Namaste~ Alicia read more

Welcoming, creative, playful, enlightening, authentic--these words come to mind when I think of Carolyn Tracy. Her clear teaching style and helpful feedback are what set her "Let the Yin Begin" training apart from other certificate programs. The intensive program includes learning and practicing all 26 Yin poses, observing three of Carolyn's Yin classes, practice teaching, reading/study homework, and a test. Carolyn also generously offers her tips for success as a yoga teacher, including how to be compensated fairly. If you are seeking to expand your practice with an experienced, knowledgeable yoga instructor, then I highly recommend enrolling in "Let the Yin Begin" the next time it is offered. read more

I have been practicing yin yoga with Carolyn for several years. She has a unique ability to create a very nuturing and supportive atmosphere in her classes. She is a master at providing multiple options to support your body wherever you are in your yoga journey. She explains how the body is benefitting from each pose and her soothing voice brings peacefulness and bliss to each class. She holds a special place for everyone in her class.

I've taken many yoga classes in the past but never tried Yin yoga. A friend recommended going one evening after work. It was an amazing experience. Carolyn, our instructor, was so thoughtful and in-tune with the students. I'll definitely be back! read more

I have been attending Carolyn's Yin class for a year now and it's now an essential part of my life. Most people have yet to discover Yin and really don't understand what is is or how it works. Carolyn is a master at this. She is extremely loving and giving in her approach to her practices. Any skill level can do Yin and I personally feel it helps so many areas of the body from mindfulness, stretching and relaxation. You just need to try Yin with Carolyn and you'll know what I mean. read more

I love Carolyn! Her YIN classes are amazing. I started her classes one year ago to help with a bad back. I can't do the fast flow classes without a lot of discomfort. Carolyn's YIN classes are perfect for increasing my strength, mobility and sense of well-being. She plans her classes, selects beautiful peaceful music, guides us gently through the movements and blesses us with her beauty and love. Her voice is a YIN voice. Her instructions don't distract from the meditative atmosphere she creates, rather they allow us to relax deeper into the poses. Her voice quiets my internal chatter and helps with the YIN breathing. And her touches of 'love', rain forest scented sprays, and inspirational quotes make her classes unique and very special. Thank-you, Carolyn! read more

Carolyn is the full package. If you are looking to reduce stress, experience more joy and balance in life, Carolyn's Yin Yoga is for you! As a Whole Life Nutritionist, I know how important it is to give yourself extreme self-care and Carolyn's Yin Yoga will do just that. Yin Yoga differs from other styles of hatha yoga. It's slow with long holds. Unlike restorative yoga, the goal of Yin yoga is not simply to relax, but specifically to stretch the connective tissues in the body for amazing health. Carolyn's soothing voice and her welcoming and loving style makes her Yin Yoga one of a kind. She is simply the best! read more

After not going to Yoga for a few years, I found Carolyn's Yin class. I've been going at least weekly for almost 3 months. Yin Yoga is the best and Carolyn is a master. She knows exactly how to make you feel amazing. Her voice and her slight touching are so soothing. I've gone to many types of Yoga, but I enjoy Yin Yoga the most. It's so different from the standard Yoga class and makes me feel so relaxed and so happy that I was able to attend Carolyn's class. Always looking to attending Carolyn's class. read more

Carolyn, or Carol-yin, as she is affectionately known, has been a blessing in my life. I began taking classes with Carolyn about two months ago. As a mental health professional, I encourage my clients to make a space in their life for self-care, including Yoga. I decided to follow my own advice and give it a try. I had taken a few classes in the past, but hadn't committed to it. As someone who is rather uncoordinated, and has trouble walking and chewing gum at the same time, I knew it would be a challenge. After one class with Carolyn, I realized Yin was for me, and that I found my teacher. Yin is a much slower pace than other classes I have taken with a focus on breathing that is very meditative and relaxing. Carolyn's classes have allowed me to access a true sense of calm after a busy day. They have also helped relieve the muscle tension that I experience in my neck and shoulders that causes headaches. Everything about Carolyn's class from her education about the practice, clear and easy instruction, soothing voice, use of aroma, and genuine care for her students, makes it a very special experience! Thank you for helping me find a practice that is truly beneficial to my well-being! read more

Carolyn is an amazing and inspiring teacher and her enthusiasm, energy, and passion for yoga and life is infectious. I first met Carolyn at The Yoga Fusion and attended her classes and I've always left feeling a weight off my shoulders. Carolyn has a very gentle way about her and her soft, often poetic, language in teaching makes her classes a joy to attend because her calm prescence instantly creates a stress free environment. Carolyn also adds personal touches that make her classes stand out. Her music is always very relaxing and she brings heavenly scented candles to class as well as essential oils so the room always smells amazing. Beyond that, Carolyn remembers all her students by name and takes time to ask personal questions and catch up with her students before and after class. I completed Carolyn's Yin training last year and I'm so glad I choose her to study under. She's helped me to see my potential as a yoga teacher and she is an incredibly warm and supportive person. I strongly recommend Caroyn's workshops as well. They are always full of laughter and she creates a family like environment where everyone feels at home. All of Carolyn's classes are different and perfect for new students as well as experienced yogis because she offers plenty of modifications for those who might have injuries or for those really looking to go deeper in their practice. And if you've never experienced a Yin class before I can't think of anyone more experienced than Carolyn to introduce you to this style of yoga! read more
