One of my very first teachers who helped me to see my potential as a healer, and my capacity to heal myself. I knew very little when I started practicing with Max, but the one thing I was certain of was that I wanted to absorb as much as possible of what he was offering. I did not realize at the time that what he was offering was the way in to my own heart. I am eternally grateful for his generosity, kindness and inspirational Spirit. His books “A Life Worth Breathing” and “There is No App for Happiness” make Max’s transformational teachings accessible to all.

I am extremely grateful to have the opportunity to expand and strengthen my practice with this powerful and seasoned Yogini. She is a pure transmission of the teachings. I began practicing with Maritza at a time when my body was suffering from multiple injuries, she has allowed me to re-learn what my body can do from a place of uncompromising integrity, challenging my practice to deepen in ways I didn’t know necessary or even possible. Maritza continues to teach daylong retreats at her hilltop home in Marin.

Scholar, storyteller, teacher and yogi…without Chase I doubt I would have been able to access the teachings of the sacred texts in any truly meaningful way. A long time student of the late TKV Desikachar, he is a brilliant and humble translator. Chase articulates the teachings rooted in day to day reality, and what it means to be a simple human being transversing the complexity of the material world and beyond. He brings the teachings to life!

Being a psychotherapist is a calling which continues to impress upon me the magnificent vulnerability and courage of the human spirit.
