Enthusiasm and experience...

Spenser’s enthusiasm for this craft, his adept communication with students, and his overarching focus on safety made for a series of highly engaging student experiences. Few coaches can share their depth of experience so effectively with students. As an outdoor education professional, Spenser effectively sets boundaries to ensure safety while ensuring students are optimally challenged.

Integrity and professionalism...

Lisa is an excellent Yoga instructor. She is sensitive, intuitive and delivers dynamic yet nourishing classes with integrity and professionalism. Lisa teaches from the heart and gives 100% to her students. She is focused on the therapeutic and healing aspects of yoga with a deep understanding of not only the asana but other areas such as chanting meditation and pranayama. Lisa excelled as a teacher at our institute, in Goa India; and we are honoured for her to carry the torch of yoga from India to Spain and around the world. Lisa and the NatureNurture team family exude warmth and care.

A place full of light and love...

NatureNurture is the ultimate combination for well-being! Having had the chance to come to know Lisa through her yoga classes was a blessing. Her asana lessons were pure and true; filled with the wisdom of ancient yogis. NatureNurture is a place where people will feel reborn! A place students will become in-touch with their souls, their bodies will awaken and their minds will be inspired. NatureNurture is a place filled with all light and love; open, fresh, and curious. A place, at its core, of human wholeness and happiness.

He inspired and helped them...

Spenser didn’t just train my children in sports – he inspired them and helped them develop a passion for the game, for sportsmanship and for adventure. His camps remain a highlight of their childhood and were the best sporting foundation they could have received.

Exudes passion for the sport and the outdoors...

Not only is Spenser knowledgeable and experienced, he exudes passion for sport and the outdoors. His enthusiasm is infectious, and he is a natural with kids. My daughter not only improved her soccer skills but gained confidence and had a lot of fun working with Coach Spenser.

I will hire her again with confidence...

We hired Lisa to lead yoga and mediation sessions before and after our Summer Seminar. The participants loved being able to clear their minds, stretch their bodies, breath deeply and relax! Lisa was the perfect guide for beginners through advanced. She was easy to plan with, from the point of view of someone who coordinated the group activity and participants found her easily accessible and responsive to their needs. With a background in health and wellness and certified by masters in yoga, she is the perfect combination. I will hire her again with confidence.

Spenser is meticulous, intuitive, and has immense knowledge! His love for adventure and his approaches are inspiring – our students’ experiences were transformed under his guidance. We loved having him on our team!

Safe, positive, and motivating...

Climbing with [Nature Nurture] was an all around great experience. The instructor ensured I felt safe, was positive and motivating, and pushed me to achieve more than I thought I could. Will definitely return.

Treat you like family...

I had an incredible time! Not only because of the technical survival skills I learned, but also because of the close friendships I was able to form. The Johnsons treat you like family.
