I have been a student of Mecquel’s for the past year. I started yoga at the advice of tennis friends and office mates who said my posture was “slipping”. Mecquel’s version of yoga is unique! She describes how muscles, bones and joints work together as the class progresses (stimulating the brain, as well). Her yoga includes proper posture which has transformed my posture and greatly improved by balance, including walking down stairs without a reliance on railings. The key is maintaining a “lumbar curve” that uses the lower back muscles to support the upper body in perfect vertical alignment. I encourage everyone wanting to be better athlete or just desiring more flexibility and a youthful posture to sign up one of Mecquel’s classes!- Carol Buck
