“SAM EIBLING IS ONE OF THE MOST SUPPORTIVE AND CONSCIENTIOUS TEACHERS I’VE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF STUDYING UNDER. SHE CREATES A SAFE AND NURTURING ENVIRONMENT WHERE YOU CAN EXPLORE NEW POSTURES AND TEST YOUR LIMITS IN A SAFE WAY. I SUFFERED A SHOULDER INJURY WHICH I THOUGHT WOULD END MY YOGA PRACTICE AND SAM WAS INCREDIBLY GENEROUS IN GIVING ME OODLES OF PERSONAL ATTENTION AND MODIFICATIONS SO I COULD STILL PARTICIPATE IN A VINYASA FLOW. WHEN I AM UNDER SAM’S WATCHFUL EYE, I KNOW THAT I AM NOT GOING TO INJURE MYSELF. ADDITIONALLY, MY YOGA PRACTICE PRIOR TO MOVING TO BLOOMINGTON WAS SOLELY A PHYSICAL PRACTICE. SAM OPENED MY EYES TO EVERYTHING YOGA CAN BE; HOW IT FEEDS AND PERMEATES EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE. SAM’S CLASS ALWAYS LEAVES ME WITH A CLEARER MIND AND INSPIRED VISION TO ENTER THE DAY.”

“HER CHATURANGA WORKSHOP WAS A HUGE TURNING POINT IN MY YOGA JOURNEY. THANKS TO SAM’S INCREDIBLE KNOWLEDGE OF ANATOMY AND KINESIOLOGY, COMBINED WITH HER ABILITY TO TEACH AND INSPIRE, I LEARNED MORE ABOUT WHAT A CHATURANGA SHOULD LOOK AND FEEL LIKE IN A COUPLE OF HOURS THAN I HAD IN MONTHS OF READING ABOUT AND DOING THE ASANA.”

“SAM EIBLING IS ONE OF THE MOST FIERCELY KNOWLEDGABLE, COMPASSIONATE, ENCOURAGING, SUPPORTIVE AND DEMANDING TEACHERS WITH WHICH I HAVE HAD THE GOOD FORTUNE OF CROSSING PATHS. SAM GIVES OF HERSELF GENEROUSLY AS A TEACHER AND AS A PERSON… TRULY, THE DELINEATION IS HARD TO SEE… THE GENUINE PERSON YOU MEET IS THE TEACHER YOU GET: EXCELLENCE, INTELLIGENCE AND GRACE. INSPIRING TO SAY THE LEAST… TO ANY AND ALL SKILL LEVELS… SHE WILL MAKE ADVANCED PRACTITIONERS FEEL LIKE EAGER BEGINNERS AND SHE WILL MAKE BEGINNERS FEEL WELCOMED, CAPABLE AND SUPPORTED.”

“MY FIRST YOGA CLASS WAS A 6AM POWER VINYASA CLASS LED BY SAMANTHA.  I AM FOREVER THANKFUL THAT SHE WAS THE INSTRUCTOR THAT MORNING.  YOGA HAS CHANGED MY LIFE AND SAMANTHA IS PLAYING A HUGE ROLE IN THAT CHANGE.  I HAVE ATTENDED VARIOUS TYPES OF CLASSES THAT SHE HAS TAUGHT IN THE STUDIO, WORKSHOPS ON A NUMBER OF TOPICS THAT SHE HAS LED, AND HAVE BEEN A STUDENT IN A PRIVATE SETTING WITH SAMANTHA.  IT IS OBVIOUS SHE LOVES SHARING YOGA WITH HER STUDENTS.   I APPRECIATE AND ADMIRE HER ABILITY TO LEAD A CLASS AND INSPIRE YOGIS.  SAM IS AWESOME!”

“SAM CREATES A NOURISHING, YET ENERGIZING ENVIRONMENT IN HER CLASSES, EFFORTLESSLY LEADING HER STUDENTS THROUGH EXCITING AND RELAXING FLOWS. SHE HAS INSPIRED ME TO DIVE DEEPER INTO MY YOGA PRACTICE AND HAS GIVEN ME TO CONFIDENCE TO TRY NEW, CHALLENGING POSTURES.”
