”The course is wonderful overall. All the information is presented clearly, which makes it easy even for a novice like me to get involved. I gained new insight on holistic skincare. Gua sha is now part of my weekly routine. It was rewarding to see how my dry, relatively wrinkled skin became supple and healthy. It’s no longer as prone to redness and is better at handling the airconditioned indoor air at work. Yin yoga tags along wherever I go: the cottage, forest, beach, home, with and without my dogs. Also my husband got into yin yoga. The course met my expectations in every way. While doing it, I also bought another online course that involved pilates, yin yoga, meditation and wellbeing advice, which turned out to be a waste of money. All the elements of the Yin Your Skin online course are of a high standard: the soundscape is perfect for yin yoga and Katja has a soft, pleasant voice and provides clear instructions for the asanas, so even a beginner like me knows what she’s doing. During the 90-minute yoga practice, I’d completely lose track of time, becoming focused on the body in a holistic, serene and magical way. The gua sha instructions are clear and accompanied with good video material. The instructions teach the basic techniques and principles for doing gua sha. The eight-month period gave plenty of time, thank you for that!”

”I’ve been practicing yin yoga and gua sha about twice a week for the last two months. My lower back pain from sitting at a desk all day has improved, although I still have some way to go. The long yoga session is so lovely and relaxing that I’ll be sticking to it. I’m fascinated by the gua sha practice, which has made a huge difference in removing puffiness after each treatment! I never expected the results to be so fast. My skin is in good shape and the bags under my eyes stay away when I get round to doing the treatment three times a week. Pretty incredible! I didn’t have skin issues before, but a glow has come as an added bonus. Even a friend remarked how healthy my skin is looking these days. My eyebags disappearing was a wonderful surprise – I didn’t think anything would help. The best part about the course are the relaxing, beauty-boosting treatments spiced up with Katja’s clear directions and beautiful music that makes the experience totally unique. The course has far exceeded my expectations! I was mainly looking for a pick-me-up for the winter months and to counteract stress, but the holistic package has been a positive surprise that I’ve really enjoyed! I’ll carry on until the end of the subscription period and hope there’ll me more in the future.”

”The course rescued my weekend after a stressful week. It was lovely to devote time for self-care and enjoy something so well produced. Yin yoga + gua sha made such an impact that my colleagues noticed a change even through a tiny screen. I had high expectations, but the course exceeded them clearly. Loved it!”

”This is the first time I bought an online course or exercises, but the quality is so high that I’m really pleased! After doing the exercises several times, I now feel I wouldn’t necessarily need the video anymore, but the music and guidance are so great that leaving them out wouldn’t cross my mind!”
