Testimonials

POWER VINYASA YOGA has made a big difference in my life. I have practiced many different kinds of yoga in the past 25 years, and now have found the one for me. I truly feel on a high every time I leave my class, and the feeling stays with me, encouraging me to live better, eat better, and be kind to myself. Sharon Wells, my teacher and mentor, is awesome. She has a gentle way of teaching, and paying attention to each one of us as an individual. Her encouraging words stay with me, she is truly an inspiration.
– Marie Buch, Elizabethtown, PA

Sharon say's, there's a reason people come to Yoga. Here, a once-in-a-lifetime golf trip to Scotland was forming... and having a few years on some of the other guys there was no way I wasn't going to be in shape for this trip! I have stayed with it now three years thanks to Sharon. Sharon keeps the classes interesting. Beginning students are welcomed and may progress quickly as Sharon's quite attentive to the individual. Sharon maintains an instruction talk throughout class... no small thing as she often leads by working out herself! And Sharon always has time for questions. I have spent years at other sports and find Sharon's power Yoga workouts to be among the best for muscle tone and flexibility. Sharon Wells is a top practitioner and dedicated instructor of Yoga! – Guy Cooper, Lancaster, PA

My first yoga class was in March 2003. Despite my instructor’s “aloof" disposition, I was hooked. I am glad that I stuck with it. It was through this journey that I met another instructor whom I felt matched my personality and was in sync with me. That instructor is Sharon Wells. She always offers positive and encouraging words to her students. She will gently make adjustments and strives to help her students achieve the best possible practice for each individual knowing that “one size does not fit all” in yoga. She infuses her classes with humor and grace and never makes one feel “not good enough” if a particular pose is proving to be too difficult. Speaking from personal experience, as one who was never a gifted athlete, I feel that yoga has given me more strength, stamina and energy not only in the physical sense but emotionally and spiritually as well. It has allowed me to focus on what is truly important to me in my life. I am grateful to Sharon for helping and guiding me along this path.
– Deanna Baker, Grantville, PA

My positive outlook on Yoga took me 5 sessions. Now it has helped me through a difficult year. It has become an outlet that I look forward to. Sharon has made this happen by talking and teaching the entire class. She stresses proper form and this allows me to check on myself constantly. I am a teacher and I think she possesses all the fine qualities that are needed to instruct her clients to become the best they can be. I take this attitude from her class and apply it to my daily life. Thanks Sharon

WHYoga Welcomes Massage Therapist and Yoga Instructor Rene Seigrist!

Tue, 25 Nov 2008 13:14:00 EST

Rene Seigrist has been a certified massage therapist since 2002. She graduated from East-West School of Massage Therapy and later continued her education in Thai Yoga massage. She has a passion for color and aroma therapy. Rene also specializes in deep tissue, prenatal and reflexology. Rene's focus on the mind and body have kept her clients coming back throughout the years. Rene began practicing Ashtanga Yoga in 2004 while working in a spa. Now working as a PA State Police dispatcher, Rene grew the desire again for the practice to help balance the mind. Longing for a practice that would push her to the limit to combine with her weight training, Rene found WHY Yoga Studio where Sharon pushed her to the limit. Rene fell in love with the Baron Baptiste Power Vinyasa style and grew the desire to teach and took Sharon's teacher training course. She looks forward to continuing her education with Baron Baptiste in the near future.

Thai Yoga Massage now available at WHYoga Studios

Mon, 17 Sep 2007 08:29:00 EDT

Sharon Wells has received her Level 2 Thai Yoga Massage Certification under the teaching and supervision of Anthony DiGirolamo, I.T.M, certified instructor, Chiang Mai, Thailand. Nuad Bo-Rarn Thai Massage is a manipulation of the physical structure and form. It is performed on a floor mat rather than a table, which allows for the most effective use of the practitioners body weight rather than muscular force or transmission of pressure, force or energy, which creates a highly therapeutic effect. Because soft tissue manipulation is a subordinate part of Thai Massage, the client may remain fully clothed except for the feet. The stretching movements in Nuad Bo-Rarn Thai Massage affect the entire body by increasing flexibility, releasing both deep and superficial tension, and helping the body's natural energy to flow more freely.
