Working with Ann-Marie has been incredibly helpful. We check- in before each session to assess what will be the best practice and intention for the day. I continue to learn a lot, find strength, and healing after each time. She is kind and knowledgeable and I 100% recommended working with her.
You are a delight and a very insightful practitioner. I look forward to knowing you for many years.Thank you Sharon.

My yoga journey with Ann-Marie was full of joy, healing, self knowledge and the deepest care. I was seeking a teacher who could help me connect with my body and relearn what I knew about yoga over the years. My experience with yoga in the past has been challenging, especially in NYC.
While I've met some wonderful and experienced teachers and I'm grateful for the classes and communities I've been a part of, I still felt so much shame for not "getting it." I felt that the classes were focused on speed, athleticism and "aesthetics" rather than yoga as truth.
Working with Ann-Marie, as a first generation South Asian American, was a gift. She used her beautiful background as an Integral Yoga teacher to help me relearn the practice, explaining the meaning of each asana.
Yoga is more than a library of movements and poses, it's a way of life. And she fully embodies that when you work with her. She held space for me on the days I felt out of tune with my body, deeply listening to what I needed and allowing me to show up...as I was.
And it's from that space where I felt a sort of blossoming. I started to appreciate my body even more when I worked on my Adho Mukha Shvanasana, that I was capable of doing it. And she was so patient with me, which helped me feel safe.
I hope can give yourself the gift of working with Ann-Marie :)
I cherish the time we had together, exchanging wisdom, experience and joy. Thank you Jenn for taking the time to practice deeply and to share that with me. Your gifts to the world are infinite. Peace.

Amba Yoga NYC, is one of the best private yoga classes I have taken in years. What makes her one of the best is that she listened to me first, and was able to create a session that met my needs at that point in time. During this time period of my life with all that is happening with the pandemic, Amba taught me in a way, I felt uplifted and strengthened. She is a very comprehensive yoga teacher, she taught me breathing techniques, various meditations and some yoga poses that no one has never shown me before. I felt very supported in our session and afterwards I was able to recall what we did to enable me to practice on my own. Thank you Amba Yoga NYC.
Thank you Lynne - it is always a pleasure to practice yoga with you. I'm glad you are doing so well.

Ann-Marie is an amazing yoga teacher! She is so warm, supportive, and wise. Our yoga sessions are the best part of my week! She is a great motivator and always knows exactly what I need. I love having the class tailored to my needs, where I am at right now, with plenty of space for growth and self-acceptance.
Amba is, for me, the very definition of not just a yoga teacher but a yogic soul as well. She brings the beautiful harmony of her own spiritual energy blended with her experience as a teacher to the class. The environment is always serene despite the physicality of the practice.
I feel many students new or familiar with yoga practice will benefit not just from her knowledge but also from the Healing sounds of her tuning forks or gongs. In short, Amba is a brightly shining teacher who’s classes attract many levels of practitioners through her kindness, patience and understanding of her students.
Thank you for your kind words Leda. I cherish every one in our community and the time we get to spend together in the cultivation of peace. ☮️

Not only is Ann-Marie's yoga teaching superb but it's her inner calm and grounding that make me book her again and again. Rarely do you meet a private yoga instructor who is highly experienced and also able to connect with what is going on in their client's life in such a profound way. Our twice weekly sessions allow me to sail through life's intricacies and stresses while giving my body a much needed workout.
Thank you Silvana - here's to another five years of glorious practice together. You are a shining light.

Ann-Marie’s love, patience and skill in yoga greatly assisted me through cancer diagnosis and treatment; even though we were on opposite sides of the globe. Her ability to recognise when my posture needed to be adjusted was exceptional, considering she had to do it via FaceTime. Our twice weekly sessions were a shining light in a dark period. Through yoga Ann-Marie brought peace and wellbeing back into my mind and body, when the rigours of cancer treatment and the damage it did to my health were difficult to endure.
Thank you Jeremy for your kind words and absorption in the process. So much gratitude for the gift of your recovery.❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽

I have worked individually with Ann-Marie for several years. She is amazing in her scope of methods. She is kind and gentle and possessed of wisdom way beyond her years.She has an ancient spirit. I recommend her practice to anyone who wishes to open their mind, heart and body. She is ferociously smart and intuitive..a gift!
Thank you Laura - looking forward to seeing you on Monday.

Weekly workplace meditation with Amba has been a transformative opportunity to breathe, de-stress, and refocus throughout the workweek. Through breathing techniques, sound healing, teachings, and prayers, Amba's meditation sessions are a reminder of the abundance in our lives, and to bring loving kindness to ourselves and every being. I am grateful to Amba for sharing her soothing presence, techniques and knowledge in each class.
You’re a divine being Kerri, thank you for being so consistent with showing up, doing your practice and encouraging others. The benefits come from these three things. See you next week - on the mat!
Thanks Monica, you bring so much great presence to practice too!

One-on-one yoga lessons with Ann-Marie have been truly transformational, building my confidence and nourishing my spirit. Each lesson was unique and attentively tailored to my goals and intentions. As a beginner at yoga, I felt at ease with her encouragement, support, patient instruction, and good humor. Her soulful use of sound meditation deepened the experience memorably. Very grateful to have found such a gifted teacher!
Thank you Annie, it's very rewarding to continue working together.

I met Amba through a friend at just the right time. Private yoga/meditation sessions with her were a blessing! Having her as a one on one guide helped me deepen my practice and enhance my focus. I would highly recommend her to anyone, especially to those who are struggling through a challenging time or if you need help deepening your current practice. I am forever grateful for our time together! Om Shanti Shanti Shanti!
Thank you Nissa Joy - it was definitely a two way street, I learned a lot from you and grew so much from our time together. See you in class on Friday:)
