“Thank you! Thank you for your patience, your encouragement, your drive!!! It helps when your yoga instructor shares the same drive you have for getting better in all aspects of life!! She’ll never let you slack and she not scared to call you soft. Thank you, ZiZi had to shout the plug out who helping me get to where I want to be this offseason and during the season.”
“Yoga with ZiZi is a great experience. My body feels great after each session. Yoga helps my tight muscles to loosen up. I felt a lot better on the practice field and the game field after my yoga sessions with ZiZi.”
“ZiZi was my first private yoga instructor. We did private classes in the in small groups(usually no more than 5) tailored to athletes, and even more specifically, football athletes. She was always very patient with us but also pushed us to the brink of our comfort zones in order for us to progress and see results. She has a true passion for the practice and was willing to work whenever and wherever. Not only did she improve my performance in the weight room and on the field but she completely changed my view on yoga and how it can translate and help athletic performance as well as mental health. ”
“Being a fitness and performance coach I can appreciate the balance that’s needed to have a healthy lifestyle. ZiZi yoga has challenge my body and my clients to new heights through natural strength and flexibility movements.”
“Personally, I think she is one of the best to do it out right now and helps you become the athlete you want to be.”
“ZiZi has been very professional since day one of meeting with her, with both one on one and group sessions she’s gets the job done. I feel great after yoga with her, and also beneficial to my sport. Great teacher and even better person!”
“Zaineb is truly a gift, a natural teacher with the ability to simplify the complexities of Yoga— in a way that continuously educates and leaves all of her clients gleaming with confidence.”
“My yoga journey began in college, never was really a big fan of it because I felt like I wasn’t making improvements. I started working with ZiZi about 2 years ago and she made me look at yoga differently. She made yoga fun and focus on improving all of my weak spots. Since working with her I’ve noticed a tremendous change in my flexibility and my hip mobility. I will continue to work with her every summer to prolong my career as much as possible! Thank you for making yoga fun again ZiZi”
“ZiZi is one of the best teachers I’ve ever encountered. Not only is she a fantastic practitioner, her energy is infectious, instilling a love for yoga in all of her clients. With her skill, passion and compassion, She has changed many lives for the better. That goes for elite athletes gaining playability and mobility for their upcoming season to soccer moms and friends wanting to unwind and recharge. Her spirit and professionalism is unsurpassed and her future in this business is so bright.”
“As a former athlete, I know the importance of stretching for optimum performance. ZiZi Yoga has helped me keep my muscles/tendons loose and strong as it is important to maintain in my years post-competition. This helps me to avoid injury in my older years!”
“My first impression of ZiZi was at a charity basketball event I donated too and volunteered at. Kids are running around playing basketball and doing basketball drills. The kids take a break and I’m like ok what’s next. What’s next was a young lady giving her time to show some inner city kids the importance of yoga and how it can enhance performance. ZiZi had a amazing session with the kids and some of the instructors as well and they all loved it. I thought to myself, that would be amazing if I could get her to work with my players at CCBC DUNDALK. I wasn’t able to track her down that day but I reached out to her via social media and ZiZi was very receptive to the idea of helping my program out even though the drive would be approximately an hr each way. ZiZi has now worked with my guys over the last 3 seasons during the preseason and it has been nothing short of amazing. My guys went from “coach do we have to do this” to “coach when is the next session” and now have a even better mindset of how important taking care of their body is to their performance. As long as I have a say ZiZi will have a place in my program because she brings positivity, energy, work ethic and passion each and every time she interacts with my guys. I am grateful for that summer afternoon where I was able to watch her work and learn the importance of yoga and how it can enhance performance.”
“I’ve been doing yoga with ZiZi now for close to a year and you can tell how dedicated she is to the process. I’ve seen nothing but improvements each session. Each session I can feel myself getting better and better, being able to go deeper into my stretches and maintain my position longer with ease. I recommend if you haven’t had a yoga session with her that you sign up as soon as possible.”
“ZiZi is the perfect choice for any athlete looking to improve their athleticism and performance through yoga. As a healthcare provider, she is the only yoga instructor that I trust with my clients. Any athlete interested in yoga needs to seek out ZiZi’s services - she is simply the best”

“Speaking from my own experience. I started yoga with ZiZi about a year ago. It seems to strengthen my body overall and it improved my flexibility. I wasn’t in any way influenced by the spiritual or religious aspect of yoga, but I can say working with ZiZi on calmness and breathing while within our session has brought me closer to understanding the importance of being “Still”. I always say there’s two types of pain, one that hurts you and the other that changes you and that’s what working with ZiZi has done for me, it has changed me Mentally, Socially and Relationally.”
“I really never liked yoga until I met ZiZi. And even then I still didn’t like it. But ZiZi cared so much about me and my career that she kept pulling at me to do it. I’ve known her for about 2 years now and she has been in my corner ever since when it comes to yoga. We’ve had a few sessions and I always see I difference in my flexibility the next day. Even though it isn’t a major difference, I still see it. I can only imagine if I stayed consistent where I would be right now. How she demonstrates her classes and her patience with me is amazing and that’s why I enjoy her teaching so much. I love her passion.”
“Yoga with ZiZi has been way more useful than i thought I️t would be . Starting our sessions in September of 2017, my body has improved in unbelievable ways in terms of my flexibility . I️ wouldn’t wake up with the same body aches as I️ normally would & also i wouldn’t cramp as much . As the sessions went on my breathing has improved as well . I find myself using the breathing techniques ZiZi has taught me to give myself an advantage on the court. Thank you ZiZi, you helped my game improve in many ways.”
“I began working with ZiZi 2-3 times a week in the winter of 2015. I was recovering from a season ending back injury and was heading into my Junior year at UVA; a pivotal time for me. The various movements, stretches, and modalities that ZiZi took me through dramatically improved my stability, core strength, and flexibility. What followed were my 2 best season. ZiZi is a very charismatic and devoted instructor who is strongly invested in her clients & their desired results.”
“Working with ZiZi over the last couple years has been a great investment, she pushes me to new heights and I can see and feel the stretching doing some great things to my body. It has been very big for me for injury prevention. She is passionate about health and wellness. She uses yoga as a tool to help me become a better athlete along with many other people. I can’t thank her enough for pushing me to be the best I can. I can now see the results because of consistently practicing yoga with her.”
“Yoga with ZiZi is unlike any yoga I have experienced before. The athlete focus and attention to detail that ZiZi has, is a must for any aspiring and or professional athlete!”
“I wanna take this time to shed some light on the influence that yoga has had on me mentally and spiritually. I began working with ZiZi the summer of 2017 and it has done nothing but wonders for me and my body. It makes me feel at peace and I appreciate everything that you do to keep me focused on my career. Thank you for all you do and continue to be great and inspire the youth. ”
