Testimonials

I make a genuine effort to connect with my students and help them connect with themselves. Below are some thoughtful notes and experiences from students over the years.

  • “Courtney was my favorite yoga instructor in Austin! In addition to being patient, kind, joyful (even in early morning classes), and fun as she guided us through our practice, Courtney is genuinely invested in her students and in building a community within the studio. She would ask after my work, hobbies, and life outside the studio at every class, and she was very helpful in helping me both grow in yoga and adapt poses and transitions when I was dealing with soccer injuries.”

  • “Courtney Hans is one of the best teachers I have ever had the pleasure of learning from. Her teaching style is joyful, energetic, and accessible, and it was her beginner yoga class that inspired me to really commit to my practice, and her encouragement that eventually led me to enroll in teacher training myself. Courtney's knowledge of alignment and philosophy is extensive, and she brings a sense of play to practice that still inspires me and my own teaching.”

  • “Courtney's energetic and positive personality make her classes so AWESOME! Courtney's 101 class encouraged me to deepen my practice and eventually complete a 200 hr teacher training, she is an inspiration!”

  • “Courtney has such a warm, joyful and uplifting presence and she creates a friendly atmosphere in which you feel welcomed to explore your yoga practice. I have found her yoga classes to be well-balanced; whether you are looking for a challenge, relaxation or a little of both, in her class, you’ll find just the right mix. Whenever I have had the pleasure of taking Courtney’s class, I have always left feeling more inspired and more balanced in my body.”

  • “Courtney is a great yoga teacher! She was one of the first teachers I had when revisiting my practice after years of absence. She was kind and approachable, compassionate and fun, and made me feel welcome and comfortable. I always felt I could approach her with questions and still do to this day, even though she's no longer my instructor!”
