“I want to let you know what a beautiful difference you have made in my life. I have suffered from illness in my life and I discovered your live yoga practices. Your soul touched mine through my little i-Phone screen. All your words of wisdom pierce my heart with their truth and your gift of yoga has curbed my illness. I now practice at least 5 times a week because of the fire you lit in me, but my favorite is to practice with you. Aphinya, you are a light in this world. Thank you for everything.”

“The instructor, Aphinya Deley, was absolutely wonderful and incredibly hands-on. She has a rare gift for reading the room and tailoring her guidance to what everyone needed. She provided the perfect amount of personal help, gentle alignment adjustments, and encouragement exactly when it mattered most, making everyone feel safe, confident, and supported in their practice.
The entire schedule was thoughtfully paced, giving us plenty of time for deep reflection, beautiful flows, and meaningful conversations. I came home feeling completely mentally recharged. A heavy weight has been lifted off of me, and I feel a profound sense of inner peace. If you need to pause, heal, and fill your cup, I cannot recommend Aphinya’s retreats enough—it was a life-changing experience!.”

“I truly appreciated our retreat group everyone supporting each other and I believe that started from you as an instructor with an open heart. .
I loved how you took 1-1 time with each of us, sharing your story as well. I think our intro session, the bon fire talks etc helped all of us feel connected to each other , to get to know each other and made us feel at home. I believe that you put all of us very comfortable right from the start ( let's forget about Mary )...the yoga sessions were very good, where you explained what to expect, how to modify, make it challenge etc. loved it .....
You mended all our hearts a bit, opened it to new possibilities, so thank you, thank you ! ”

“Practicing with Aphinya has been one of the most transformative experiences of my yoga journey. She has taught me so much about my body — how to listen, respond, and move with greater awareness and compassion. Her sequencing is nothing short of brilliant: intelligently crafted, deeply safe, and yet artfully challenging in a way that allows even the most advanced poses to unfold naturally and comfortably in the body.
What makes Aphinya truly special is her ability to weave playfulness and reflection into her teaching. She shares her own life experiences with such honesty and vulnerability that her students can’t help but connect and find healing in their own stories. Every class feels like an invitation to explore not just movement, but life itself, with openness and joy. She embodies yoga in every sense — not only on the mat, but in the way she lives, teaches, and relates to others. I am endlessly grateful for her guidance, her wisdom, and her joyful spirit. Practicing with her is a true gift.”
