“I’m thrilled to share my wholehearted recommendation for David Stevens who taught at my studio, Up Yoga, from 2021 - 2025. He consistently delivers exceptional yoga classes by crafting well-thought-out, seamlessly executed sequences. In each class, David truly sees his students—adapting cues and guidance to what’s happening in real time—so everyone feels safe, supported, and encouraged to explore their practice.

Beyond his skillful teaching, David’s charisma and warmth shine. He makes it a point to learn each student’s name, actively builds real relationships, and cultivates a welcoming atmosphere. The result is an energized, connected, and authentic class experience that keeps students returning for more.

He also created and led multiple workshops for our community from handstands to a yoga/sauna special class with clarity in his communication every step of the way. As a team member, David was consistently on time, collaborative, and genuinely invested in his students’ and the studio’s growth. With an already stellar roster of teachers, David stood out among them—his classes were regularly sold out, and I’m not at all surprised.

He is truly a gem to have on any yoga team, and I would rehire him without hesitation. David will be greatly missed by our community, but I know he’ll continue to uplift and inspire everywhere he teaches.”
