RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ICY
“It was such a treat to do yoga with you (John) & Jeanne last week. You are both like medicine to my soul.””
-M.B. 3/8/24
“Jeanne, I’m saddened that I cannot just run to ICY when I’m feeling stressed or need a place just to breathe!! I was just guided by your meditation tonight on the beach (located on your website for FREE)!! Thank you for that!! I REALLY needed that!!!
-M.E. 2/9/23
“What a great class Tuesday morning (BEACH YOGA) at 8:00 am with John and Wednesday morning (ALL LEVELS) at 9:30 am at Waccamaw Recreation Center with Jeanne. Two days in a row surely make me feel better! Thanks!”
“ I strongly recommend Jeanne and John Adams at Waccamaw Recreation Center right here in Pawleys. I’m so glad I found them. They are so welcoming, warm and kind, and they love to teach!”
“I’ve truly been blessed to be a part of the beauty of ICY. It’s an amazing home you both have created and I was able to participate in all that you offered. And for me, what perfect timing. Taking teacher training just as I retired and then you all were there to support me as I faced my most difficult challenge...”
“The journey through Inner Connections Yoga teacher training was even more powerful than I expected! John and Jeanne combine their extensive experience and depth of knowledge with selfless guidance and grace to truly empower students on our individual paths of self-enlightenment, healing, peace, and harmony. I am forever grateful for this transformational training!”
“Inner Connection Yoga (ICY) is a wonderful studio with experienced, caring instructors. I highly recommend ICY for yoga classes or teacher training.”
“You must make ICY a part of your life! It has been in business Castle Rock for nearly 20 years and I have been a member since the beginning. It has longevity because it is the BEST studio within 20 miles… believe me… I have visited all of them, including the “new” ones in Castle Rock! Studios come and go but ICY has remained… same ownership, same location, and always amazing well-educated and spirit-led instructors who teach from a tradition. There is a team environment here and all who walk in the doors feel a sense of calm, relaxation, and sacred space. ICY is the only studio who volunteers every summer to offer free Yoga in the Park to the Castle Rock community at the MAC and they ask nothing in return. They display new local art quarterly in their studio to support local artists. And I have seen John and Jeanne give their time and energy over-and-over again to people in need, without asking anything in return. It is my home away from home, my sanctuary, and my heart. If you want to nurture, heal, and help yourself become healthy in mind, body, breath, and essence, this is the place to Be. ”
““ Thank you so much for my last 12 weeks of prenatal yoga. I cannot wait to continue my journey in your class, alongside my journey to motherhood. It has truly been an asset to my development and preparation/awareness of my body and baby, for labor and beyond.” ”
Thank You!
What an honor! We appreciate your votes and support for our work in yoga.
- Jeanne and John Adams
