Pros

The team at the DAYA Foundation has been incredibly inspiring to me. Being mentored to teach authentic yoga, connected with the roots of yoga in India, has spared me from the high burnout factor of other yoga teachers. I have been both personally and professionally mentored by Sarahjoy, whose dedication to teaching authentic yoga for over 30 years inspires me so much. She brought yoga to Oregon's prisons after living at Breitenbush Hot Springs. Leaving Breitenbush to come back into the city on behalf of prisoners is something that I really admire in her. Not only is Sarahjoy a source of encouragement, the staff, other teachers, and the students are also so encouraging.

Cons

I have no cons to offer. Seems like other people had some personal issues to work out, but those comments do resonate with my experiences.

Pros

I have worked for Sarahjoy for about four years now, and I find her to be a very caring and supportive employer, who has been there for me during a rough times in my life the last few years, and I can’t say enough about her as a person and her character. She is just an overall genuine, caring human being.

Cons

I cannot think of any negative things about her as a person or is employer

Pros

On paper, an inspiring mission

Cons

Owner is a true narcissist. Gaslighting and gossip, as the other reviews state, are worse than ever.
