I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing Anna’s teaching & learning from her in a teacher training program. Her understanding of sequencing is exquisite! Her teaching style is fun, fluid and nuanced to help each student have an incredible experience. I highly recommend Anna!!!

Anna is an amazing teacher! I went and had a private session with her on a visit to SF and was throughly impressed. She was in tune to exactly what my body needed. I left there feeling refreshed and better then I have felt in a long time. I can’t wait to go back and take more private lessons with Anna. If you are in the area definitely look her up, you won’t be sorry.

Anna Parker is a wonderful teacher who I wholeheartedly recommend for private, small group, or workshop engagements. I met Anna five years ago when she assisted in Annie Carpenter’s 200 hour teacher training and I worked with her intermittently throughout the 300 hours that I trained under Annie in total. Anna’s teachings, adjustments, skill in the art of sequencing and alignment are exquisite and I rate her among the very best teachers that I have known. She works wonderfully with beginners and practitioners of all levels, or anyone who seeks to make a healthy lifestyle change. Anna has a beautiful practice of her own and is an incredible teacher and mentor. She is definitely someone whose classes I look forward to taking and I give my highest recommendation.

I have taught yoga for nearly 30 years and owned a yoga studio in SF Bay Area, as well as one in Portland Oregon now. Over the years of teaching, taking classes and hiring yoga teachers, Anna is one of the very best I’ve seen.

Anna is not only skilled as a practitioner but excellent in guiding her students where the sequence of the postures make good anatomical sense. In her classes, rest assured you are taken cared of yet challenged to tap into your potential.

As a yoga student, I loved Anna’s classes; as a studio owner, I felt so fortunate to have her on staff. I respect Anna’s integrity to the practice and thankful we have her to uphold the quality of teaching!

Anna is a fantastic yoga instructor!!
Sessions are meaningfully designed…. each position builds upon the next. Anna’s attention to details such as proper alignment and modifications for students is amazing. Not to mention her flawless ability to talk/walk a student through a pose or demonstrate it in class. I highly recommend taking a class from Anna, it is well worth your time.

Anna brings a very methodical approach to her teaching that shows just how experienced and educated she is in anatomy and physiology. Her classes often challenge me, yet teach me how to overcome the challenge in a way that will not be harmful for my body in the long run. She doesn’t rely on the flowery imagery that seems to be trending among Yoga teachers recently, but rather, uses her years of practice and knowledge to make learning practical and available to every body.

Anna was one of my first yoga instructors, and it’s only years later that I realized how lucky I was. Her focus on alignment means that I learned the right way to get into poses, and the best ways to support what wasn’t accessible for me. Her classes are thoughtful, and she’s amazing at meeting her students where they are. Love her!

Anna is extremely attentive and mindful in her teaching. She is very committed to continuing her education and training, and has trained with the best! She has the ability to teach to all levels, with challenging smart flows, or gentle, restorative ease. I trust her to guide my practice with intensity and care at the same time. Love her!

I know Anna to be one of the most thoughtful and inspiring yoga teachers I’ve ever practiced with. She can guide you to levels you didn’t know you had in you and bring you back to the most restful savasana ever. Super yoga teacher!

Anna is a truly remarkable instructor. . I think I initially met Anna when she was subbing for the regular class I took. I was really impressed. Although less convenient, I started taking some of her classes. When she left the Yoga studio, I followed. I also took private lessons from her. Her classes made me work hard both mentally and physically and I left feeling like she’d given me some of her energy. She has a very gentle style, yet she’ll push you. Warning: If you’ve been doing Yoga for awhile and think you know what you’re doing, Anna will find subtle things for you to work on. If you’ve just done Yoga from tapes or from average instructors, you owe it to yourself to try a class with Anna, You won’t be disappointed. I wish I had still had the opportunity to take classes from her. She is a gentle soul with a wealth of knowledge.

I seldom like classes & have been to only two yoga classes, both Anna’s. (I would have liked more but she moved away.) What I found unique about her teaching is that she gives what I call “real teaching” rather than just demonstration, and she limits her teaching to one or two things to concentrate on so the student actually learns rather than being overwhelmed by too much information. The moment I remember vividly was her quietly grasping my hips in downward dog and physically moving them so I could FEEL what she was verbally explaining about what I was aiming for in the pose– wonderful “ah-ha! moment” feedback.

Anna is a wonderful yoga instructor. She is mindful to one’s intention and ability, leads class mindfully, and has the utmost respect to safely flowing through class. One of my fav instructors of all time!

Make an effort to make it to Anna’a classes! Her level of expertise and ability to challenge students at all levels will leave your muscles shaking in a really good way. She gives great attention to detail and has a deep knowledge and love of the practice.

I have had a variety of yoga instructors. Anna is by far the most amazing. Her special gift is being able to meet each person at their own level so that everyone in the class feels appropriately challenged. Try Anna and you will not be disappointed.

Anna is a fantastic yoga instructor with excellent knowledge of the body. Anna teaches with a measurable warmth and likability. I recommend her classes to every student no matter the skill level.

I love Anna’s classes. They are challenging, but she offers modifications for those that need it. She has a very calming way about her. I definitely recommend her classes!

Enough time is spent in each pose to get one’s alignment right. Instructions are clear and flow smoothly. Modifications are offered in an easy natural manner. Anna strikes just the right balance between challenging/demanding and caring compassion.
