    Review of learning french through cooking, February 23, 2010

    Chef David and I worked out a budget for our 1-on-1 instruction for my girlfriend and I over email, and with this in mind he built a meal plan for a 3-course meal that included his time for planning, his time for instructing, and the groceries needed.
    Two days before the session, he emailed me a complete grocery list. And helped me find the items that I didn't know how to get (i.e. duck)
    He came over, and instructed us how to make an amazing scallops dish, an amazing duck breast dish, and some amazing crepes. He left us with a set of recipes, a chunk of pork fat to use to season and grease pans, and some instructions on how to make a confit out of the rest of the duck we'd purchased.

    Chef David gave us a great dinner, a French lesson, private 1-on-1 cooking instruction, and great conversation within our budget ($150).

    Highly recommended.

    Review of Village Green Yoga, February 04, 2009

    I met Jean at the TeachStreet Yoga event. She was very personable, and made the session feel very light-hearted and enjoyable. She teaches the Anusara(sp?)-style yoga which involves chanting. I'm not sure how comfortable I personally am with the chating, but when Jean demoed it... it sounded very nice.


    Teacher's Response:

    Thanks for the review Adam! Participation in chanting in class is always optional. I just like to let people know that it happens ;)

    Review of Kitty Wittkower, February 04, 2009

    I met Kitty at the TeachStreet yoga event. She would set us up in some poses, then walk around and help us get into the correct position. Some of the poses were more complex that I'd ever done so it was really nice to have the extra help.

    Review of Shakti Vinyasa Yoga, February 04, 2009

    I met Lisa at the TeachStreet Yoga event. I really appreciated that she took the time to come teach us about Vinyasa yoga. She seems like a great instructor, and I'm planning on taking one of her full-blown classes.
