I cannot even describe how much Valerie has helped me through the years! I was a newbie at yoga and was completely intimidated when I walked into the studio for the first time, but Valerie has such a wonderful practice that I was hooked. She is so gifted and Dothan is lucky to have her!

Sharing with everyone that I have the BEST Yoga coach. She is also a health & wellness specialist. I have been practicing yoga with her for about a month & let me just say she is amazing. Do you ladies need help with balance or if you just want to tone, Valerie Thompson is the person you need.

I joined in on Valerie’s month of meditations via zoom as I am from another state. I found the morning meditation to be incredibly helpful, relaxing and yet challenging. Being the sole caregiver for my elderly Mother, I found Valerie’s insights to set my day on a much calmer and more gentle path. While we haven’t actually met each other, her style and vibe feels incredibly approachable and inclusive. She came highly recommended and I would agree! Thank you, Valerie.

Valerie was very articulate in explaining the details of how each yoga pose works our body . Also, learning the breathing techniques was helpful. I would highly recommend her workshop to others .
She answered all questions we had and help each participant in what level they were at .

I came to Valerie at first to take yoga classes but quickly learned that she has so much more to offer from a mind and body wellness perspective. As a wellness coach, she was able to address many of my imbalances, both physically and emotionally, but she also helped me to understand the root of so much of my anxiety.

What has really helped me and stuck with me after completing my coaching with Valerie is the ability to be patient with and kind to myself. We grew up in a generation of women who were conditioned to believe that aging is a bad thing. Valerie's approach has helped me realize that aging is a POSITIVE thing, and it can be beautiful and enjoyable and very rewarding if you change your mindset and your unhealthy habits.

The things I still practice that I learned most from Valerie is breath work and positive self-talk. Those have helped me because I suffer from anxiety and self-doubt.

I think people should hire Valerie because she is very approachable and accessible. She's understanding and patient, but she's also direct and efficient. She is extremely passionate about her work, and it is evident in the way she listens, communicates, and lives her life. She walks the walk but is also honest about her own struggles, which makes her relatable.

I worked with Valerie at a pivotal time in my life. Lots of good and tough stressors were starting to overwhelm and I couldn’t seem to get my weight or my attitude towards it under control. With her help, I was able to discover how to achieve more balance in my life and a new way of approaching my health and wellbeing-WITH CURIOSITY!
That take away started a journey that I’m loving. After trial and error, I’ve arrived at a wellness plan that is helping me lose weight, increase my strength and flexibility, and reclaim lost loves like music.
I’m so grateful for Valerie and her commitment to her patients and helping THEM discover their next best phase of life.
