“Michelle is an amazing woman of God who has a passion for serving the less fortunate. In the years that I have known her, she radiates a positive, filled-with-the-spirit perspective on the world. Truly a light on a mountain top. Her dedication to showing God’s love and mercy makes me feel honored to know her. The work that she provides in allowing one to focus on God, facilitating intimacy with our Creator, as well as getting our body ‘whole’, is what more people need in this world. There is nothing quite like YogaFaith, it is something you must experience, and you will throughout the pages of Stretching Your Faith.”

“Stretching Your Faith brought together my love of Jesus and my love of yoga. The direction of my life changed when I learned that I could continue my yoga practice in worship and praise. Previously I struggled with reconciling my faith and the practice of yoga, Michelle clearly lays out how you can redeem your yoga practice by putting Jesus first. In no ambiguous terms this book clearly puts Jesus and the word of God before the postures, while teaching you to use your whole body in worship, giving new meaning to the words “moving meditation.” Stretching Your Faith has helped me to pray more wholly by giving me understanding of the postures of prayer. After reading this book I confidently practice yoga as a part of my spiritual growth and relationship with the Lord.”

“Stretching Your Faith is a refreshing approach to yoga training. I was looking for a program that would compliment my commitment to posture and alignment but would consider the mind and the spirit as equals. YogaFaith’s book is a comprehensive guide to a mind, body, and spirit connection that honors a commitment to Christ. Michelle incorporates many yoga philosophies without compromising Christian beliefs. She honors the century old traditions of yoga with a 2000 year old Biblical worldview. Michelle has successfully integrated the mind, body, and spirit tradition of yoga fused with the beliefs of Christianity that invites the Holy Spirit into the center of it all.”
DiAnne Bergmann, BA, MME, RYT, R-YFT
“I have been waiting for a practical guide to lead me into not only a Christian approach to yoga, but an authentic way to spend time in devotions with God. Stretching Your Faith is it. I finally found a way to create space and time for Christ as well as keep Him the center of a physical practice that encompasses the Holy Spirit so profoundly. This book is transformational in every way!”
John Christopher Bryant

“As a Christian, Stretching Your Faith has made it possible to practice yoga in a very sacred space with the Lord. I feel as if this is the first time I’ve ever been so intimate with Christ!”
Elisa Hawkinson

“When one experiences Michelle’s leadership in a yoga class you soon realize that she is committed to the practice of yoga, and helping others to realize their potential. I have become more confident in my practice through her challenges and encouragement. There are many unique gifts that Michelle brings to those she instructs, but the most powerful is inspiring the worship of God through yoga. Michelle ushers in the presence of the Holy Spirit throughout class, in postures of stillness and active movement, it really does not get any better than this. Thank you Michelle, and God bless you.”
