“Cheri is a gifted yoga instructor. She has a deep understanding of body mechanics and offers a safe place for everyone to practice inside their own safe space. She nurtures all aspects of a yoga practice from intention setting prior to class through meaningful savasana. Cheri curates the best music to accompany her classes and this helps me calm my racing mind. Grateful for all the gifts Cheri brings to the yoga class and honored to have attended 100s of her classes. ”

“Yoga with Cheri has been a key component to staying fit and injury free as a recreational athlete. Yoga helps me stay in shape not only for me physically but my mind as well!”

“I have been fortunate to be taking yoga classes with Cheri Cope for 8 years. While I have been practicing yoga periodically over the past 15 years, it has been Cheri who has taken my yoga practice to the next level. Cheri has taught me the difference between going through the motions of yoga to making the mind/body connection of the practice, understanding it’s as much mental as it is physical. I have been able to use the stillness of yoga in other aspects of my life, as well as the ability to stay in the moment versus thinking about other things (past and future). Her ability to guide and coach this is extraordinary and I have used this in my physical endeavors like biking, running, hiking and skiing to my personal and business life. I am grateful for the teachings Cheri has brought into my life.”

"I can tell you Cheri that NONE of this would be possible without you. You have been THE MOST IMPORTANT help that I have had, and may ever have. You are truly amazing at what you do!"

“Working with Cheri helped me to find confidence in my training. She taught me different strategies for suppressing anxiety and visualizing my ideal race. Her mental training put me one step closer to achieving my goals in the pool.”

“Mental training has helped me to manage all the stress that swimming and school throw at me. Working with Cheri gave me some small strategies for helping me slow things down in my head and take my races one at a time. We also worked on a lot of relaxation techniques for helping me with pre race anxiety that can also be applicable in other areas of my life.”
