"Pure Thoughts - Kind Words - Compassion Heart. These are among some of loshua's many qualities and teachings. These could just remain as words unless someone makes them have real meaning in a real world where so much negativity abounds. When I first began attending Joshua's restorative class, I was literally going through the second most difficult and tragic time of my lite. There was so much emotional pain, I couldn't feel anything. It was through Joshua's tenderness and compassion that I was finally able to identify the pain and not only feel it, but express my grief and sadness. Joshua’s healing power is his gift.

Joshua teaches us to be patient with our bodies as well as to reach out into the world and be compassionate with each other. My practice has deepened on all kinds of levels, physical emotional and of course, spiritual. Joshua’s gentle yet persuasive teaching; his soothing words and his thorough knowledge of yoga allows your body to react in a way where you find yourself in poses you never thought you could achieve.

Not only is Joshua a special human being but he is an outstanding yoga instructor. His students love him and once you attend one of his classes, you will never view yoga as just a physical experience again.”

“Josh is a true teacher. In his classes, I feel that I am learning an approach to life, not merely yoga poses but a sense of self-awareness and self discovery, and at times, of really ‘being in the moment.’ This is an amazing gift!

Josh's classes make yoga accessible and enjoyable for everybody. He is an attentive and caring instructor and his warmth and humour never cease to brighten my day. Josh’s insight, wisdom and teaching have a strong impact on my life, as 1 know they do on many other people's lives.”

"Joshua Lewis is, for me, the consummate and definitive yoga guide. His instruction enables me to explore my own practice, within my own breath. I have had the pleasure of attending a number of Joshua's classes - from private sessions and small, intimate group sessions to large rooms packed with a wide range of students - and 1 have learned from all of them.

Regardless of the size of the class or its focus, if it is a Hatha class or a restorative or yin class or a vinyasa practice, Josh guides with a deft and compassionate hand, challenging us all to explore the limits of our physical being while following our own breath and spirit."

From Joshua's classes I have now embraced my own practice and continue to explore it with thought and purpose and it has begun to expand into all areas of my life. I attend Joshua's classes whenever the opportunity presents itself and I always leave the better for it."
