Customer Reviews

Hamsa Yoga Beach Retreats is a wonderful programme that is organised regularly on the beaches of Marathon, Greece. 

Hamsa Studio was established with the intention to offer an open and neutral space for people who look for the truth. We offer yoga and meditation classes and retreats to support those who join us in their search. It is a blessing each time we meet someone who feels uplifted, like Sarah, after a session with us:

‘The yoga retreat with Andi in Greece was an absolute treat. With the time and space spent doing yoga, meditation and art every day I felt that I was learning about Ayurvedic yoga and more about myself.

The setting was absolutely perfect: light, airy space to practice in, a refurbished hotel with clean lines, a great pool and gorgeous food. It was a real release from daily life and a good way to start your yoga journey.’

REVIEWS OF HAMSA YOGA CLASSES


Lynn shares her experiences:

“Hamsa Yoga Studio is clean, light and airy, I love the energy of it.”

Val practices with Andi for 13 years and says:

“Can I just share my thoughts. Before COVID I used to attend two classes a week with Andi in the studio and I loved it! I have now practiced online, on Thursdays for four years and really benefitted from it. Recently, I decided to try a studio class again, and realised what I had been missing. It is a different experience practicing with others and I love the interaction with Andi. If you haven’t visited the studio yet, I would urge you to try it ?”

Chris says:

“Real yoga, through and through! Andi is a qualified expert in the creating dynamic, intelligent and thoughtful routines that don’t just increase flexibility and strength, but help you to better understand yourself. A big claim? I’ve been working with Andi for 7 years and I’m not the same person that came through that door.”

Kathryn, from the UK enjoyed her stay in Greece as well and says:

“Such wonderful sessions! You are a great teacher! The views from our practice hall was just fantastic. I especially enjoyed that I felt serene after each and every yoga class.”

TESTIMONIALS AND REVIEWS FOR YOGA WITH ANDI

Kimberley from England says,

‘Andi combines meditative techniques with props to ease you into the correct pose without risk. She has a deep knowledge in identifying the apex point between your personal needs and a wealth of effective poses to unlock your stress, inflexibility or unconscious inhibition.’

Graeme reckons:

“I would like to personally thank Andi for her yoga guidance over the last 10 years. She really is an excellent teacher. My practice has been made so much better by her expert advice and insight. She has an uncanny knack of knowing exactly how things feel internally and what adjustments are needed to achieve a desired outcome. The atmosphere she creates in class is perfect for me and will be greatly missed (in Market Harborough) once she moves to Greece.”

THIS IS YOGA RELAXATION FOR THE SOUL

Robert, from the UK says:

‘For stress management, wellbeing and meditative wellness, Hamsa Yoga and Meditation Studio takes it to another level. This is not a proxy exercise routine for the body, this is yoga relaxation for the Soul.’

Lorraine, who practices yoga with Andi for more than ten years says,

‘A Yoga class that is so much more than just a Yoga class. It is welcoming and encouraging, and it is the perfect way to de-stress, relax and restore my energies. Andi’ s Ayurvedic knowledge is an added bonus and has helped me, and many others through difficult times and health issues. So very much appreciated!’

Linda is a student of Hamsa for more than a decade,

‘I recommend Andi at Hamsa yoga to you. I have been practicing with her for several years and throughout the lockdowns via zoom. She talks through some amazing mediations during our yogic sleep each class.’

Mihalis reckons,

‘A great yoga studio! Andi’s knowledge of yoga and Ayurveda is deep and she gives excellent advice with great impact on everyday life! I also enjoy the film screenings. The one about Dr Vasant Lad was truly inspiring! Thank you Andi!’

Chris says,

‘Andi’s strength is her ability to know how your body is feeling and you often question whether she is ‘reading your mind’ by the comments she makes when you are in a pose.

Her attention to detail means that you really fell it where you are meant to and her communication style is soft but assertive.

My practice has really come along since Andi has taught me and so has my wider interest in Yoga.’
