I have studied yoga for more than 20 years and have been taught by over 100 teachers. Ayala is the real deal; one of the very few yoga teachers I have encountered who absolutely live what they teach. She is utterly without vanity and offers wisdom achieved the hard way, through dedication, discipline and a constant focus on working through the muddling messiness of our mind's chatter to see with clarity and mindfulness. She is a teacher who has quietly changed my life profoundly. I am grateful to have the opportunity to be her student.

Ayala really is one of those rare and genuine people who have peeled back the layers, and touched the unique beauty in the simplicity and fullness of life. And she shares her knowledge & experience in such an accessible and authentic way. She is not only a beautiful human being and a truly unique yoga and mindfulness teacher but an illuminated poet and in my eyes a visionary. The way she orchestrates her words when she teaches reveals the world & human experience in inspired, profound and insightful ways.

To call Ayala Gill a yoga teacher considerably minimises the scope of what she does. For many of her students including myself, Ayala is a loving friend, a mentor, and a guiding light, as well as a yoga teacher! Her teaching is imbued with deep wisdom, love and the belief that each of us contains all that we need for a fully conscious, richly satisfying life. Working with Ayala has changed my life. 

Ayala is an extraordinary teacher. She creates a nurturing environment, where each student can blossom. Whether you are a regular or new to her class, she takes the time to get to know each student, physically, and emotionally, in order to help you to get the most out of the experience. She brings her full self to each class, and shares her wisdom, not just about yoga but the world we live in. I can't recommend her classes enough.

Ayala is more than just my yoga teacher. She, like a compass, helps me discover where I am in relation to what goes on around me. Her classes, while challenging and fascinating physically, are the one place where my mind really rests while my body strengthens and stretches. For me, Ayala embodies yoga as she links my body and my mind and makes me feel one with the world. 

Ayala teaches from the heart. She has been an enormous inspiration to me, both as student and teacher, seamlessly and wholeheartedly marrying her love of asana, with the explored depth of the teachings. She offers a beautiful practice that supports the entire being, welcoming all, with love and compassion.

Ayala is one of the most generous and insightful teachers I have ever had. Her approach is crystal clear, and yet gentle. It’s an emotional journey and she is a wonderful guide. Her work springs from a deep personal wisdom alongside precise understanding of the body. She’s that rare thing - a great teacher, a great communicator. She embodies what she teaches and speaks from the heart. Her teaching makes a lasting difference in my life, on so many levels.

Ayala is an outstanding teacher who offers elegantly sequenced classes infused with clear and refined alignment. Her teaching is underpinned by her experience of yoga as a practice whose core purpose is to help us step more fully and authentically into our lives, and this is woven palpably into all her classes. Her kindness and her wisdom shine through in her teaching, and a class with her is invariably a transformative and life-enhancing experience.
