Client Testimonials

"Working with Alón has been the best thing we've ever done for our business. Not only did we increase our sales over 40% percent in the last financial year, Alón inspired us to share who we are and our purpose more clearly with our yoga community. This has had a profound effect on our students and in our lives. Alón rocks!"

"Last autumn, I was ready to quit. I had quite a difficult year – and having adopted a baby daughter, I found myself just wanting to spend my time with her.   As a result, my yoga studio/business faltered, as did my self-esteem.   My close friend urged me to speak to Alón before I threw in the towel.   I was reluctant because I just didn't think I could afford it – since I was barely getting by.   It was some of the best advice I've ever received and acted on.

Within a month, Alón helped me to get my mojo back by guiding me back to the beginning – why I got into the yoga business years earlier, by remembering my values and by re-committing to a daily yoga practice.  

In the past year, we have re-branded my business, rewritten the mission and values, examined the vision, evaluated and massaged the business plan, re-designed the website, mapped out the organizational chart, set concrete goals, surveyed the student base, and celebrated with our happy and prosperous community as my business evolved and developed quite enthusiastically.  

Sales have grown 100% and attendance has grown 36% in the one year that I've worked with him. Now we're preparing to move to a larger, brand new space, with plans for a second location next year.

Aside from all the good advice Alón has imparted, he also has the uncanny ability to encourage and extract creative ideas from deep within me. Deciding to work with Alón has been a very smart choice for me personally and professionally. I am eternally grateful."

"I definitely had all sorts of reservations around doing this work. Worries about the cost. Worries about whether it would even be possible to find a business mentor who would really "get" who I am and what I do. Wow. If I'd only known that this work would pay for itself and help me to help more people!

I wanted someone who would help me grow my business like crazy, while allowing me to stay in complete integrity. That's Alón. He has helped me transform my business and feel safe doing it. I love having him on my team. Worth every penny."

"I thank him every single day for what he has done for me and my happy business!"

"When I first looked at Alón's website, I thought I really couldn't afford to hire him –– but soon found out I couldn't afford not to!

I started working with Alón at a time when I needed to deal with several not-so-positive aspects of my business. Without Alon's guidance and support, I would probably have given up the studio; just quit. Now, I am in one of the best locations in my town, students are flowing in, we have brought in more money each month since we moved and I am extremely excited about our future!

Alón knows the mistakes we make as yoga studio owners and how to re-create the business for everyone's highest good and success. I can't tell you how much I appreciate his unique style of combining who I am as a person into the process of working on my business –– just like he says on his program page, he looks at my entire life as my yoga and my business as an extension of who I am; I LOVE that!

By aligning myself with someone who knows as much as he does about growing a yoga business, I let the universe know, 'Okay, I am now ready for success and abundance!' It really worked –– I'm very grateful!"

"My experience with Alón continues to give me and my studio immeasurable success.   We started working together about a year ago and through his process of defining who I am and what I want, I've become more clear and focused on my business and personal needs.

When working together, Alón has a unique way of pulling out a perspective I may not have seen and diving into the action necessary.   He is a hands-on mentor and friend.

I own Bikram Yoga San Jose, a thriving yoga community in our fourth year of operation that needed to evolve in the right way. With Alón's guidance, we designed a perfect website that captures so well who we are at BYSJ right now, and lays a clear path for our future. Alón and I are continuing to capture and sculpt the growth the studio is experiencing and I am so thankful to have his wisdom, focus, creativity and enthusiasm as me and my business change and grow.

The success of my studio is very much attributed to the decisions he has helped me make.   I proceed with lots of confidence, thanks to Alón!"

Sometimes I wish I'd heard of Alón when I first started my business. Then it wouldn't have been such a struggle. But we meet people when we are meant to and I feel very privileged to have gotten to know him. Throughout our coaching, Alón was totally dedicated to me and my business. With his inspiration and guidance, I have gone from cancelling workshops due to insufficient numbers, to running full ones. The phone keeps ringing now with all sorts of unusual and exciting invitations and proposals, and when one door closes another magically opens. He is my guru, my mentor and my friend.

“Alón has been an invaluable support throughout the process of launching my two businesses.  He’s kept me accountable for deadlines and follow-through at times when I would have simply given up; provided industry insights that I would not have otherwise had; and shared innovative ideas for building a business from the ground up.   

When I first started working with Alón, I had been successfully teaching yoga and leading yoga retreats in places where I had virtually no competition — Guinea and Benin, in West Africa.  I wasn’t sure how to make the transition to leading yoga workshops and retreats in the US, where there were so many other yoga teachers and studios.  I was also passionate about aromatherapy and had been making products for friends and students and giving them as gifts at retreats.

Alón told me early on that as I get more clarity on the inner gifts I want to share with the world, the best way to bring my yoga teaching to the US would be revealed to us.  It took some time for us to clarify exactly what I want, but in the end, I launched not only my yoga retreat business, but also my aromatherapy skincare and hair care product line. 

This has been an amazing process of personal and professional development— we really did work from the inside out-- and I’m very pleased to say that both of my businesses are launching successfully.  Thank you, Alón!”

"Everything is just falling into place. My Yoga studio is now paying me more than what I was making doing my occupational therapy practice.

The stress in my life has just been lifted so dramatically and I just feel absolutely awesome! I love my life. I am so happy now!! I feel like I am finally on my path. Thanks Alón for getting me through the rough times and giving me the tools to persevere."

"In just four months, my yoga business and my life have been transformed.

While in the midst of opening a second studio, I realized I needed help.   The business was doing well, but our brand no longer fit the studio's identity. I knew we needed a change, but was unsure of how to get there. It was time to find a guide who could help me forge a clear path and bring balance back to the studio and to my life.

From my very first meeting with Alón, I knew I would no longer need to travel alone. With Alón's guidance, laughter and encouragement we have made positive changes to improve the business. Alón helped me simplify daily operations and develop a new identity and brand that really reflects who we are. With Alón by my side, I was able to embrace a journey that has been challenging, exciting, and fun.

In one of our meetings, Alón said, 'Kyra, we are not only changing your business, we are changing your life.'

In the short period that we have been working together, the business has evolved into a thriving community of friends and yogis dedicated to changing their lives.

In addition, my life has become more balanced and has changed for the better! Thank you Alón for your support, friendship and inspiration.

I am and will continue to be... Inspired. "

"When I finally called Alón, it was out of desperation.   I couldn't really afford to pay a coach. I thought I could swing it for a month, but then after that, I might have to quit.

 

I was in my fifth year of running my own yoga studio, and I was miserable. I felt exhausted, negative, and knew that the adage "Like attracts like" was in full swing.   I had reached the point where I was thinking of simply just closing the doors––permanently.   I was working really long hours, pulling my hair out over problems with teachers and staff, and making a pittance for a living.

 

That was ten months ago, and it is hard to believe the transformation that has occurred––in me, and in the studio! When I first contacted Alón, my studio was in the red, now it's in the black––during the slowest part of the year, summer!  

 

But even better than that, I am in bliss! My soul has come back to life with the joy that inspired me to open a yoga center in the first place.

 

What a journey it has been–– Alón has helped me in so many ways!  

 

Alón is a phenomenal listener, and his ability to zero in on what's really important is quite impressive. For me, having him as a sounding board has probably been the single most powerful tool of all, which is a testimony to what he told me on day one, which was, "In essence, I will be your silent partner." Indeed, the partnership is silent, but it is not limited to our weekly meetings... I feel his support and guidance 24/7––not just in running my yoga center, but also in living my life.

 

At first I thought I couldn't afford to hire Alón, now I know I couldn't afford not to! I have had such an incredible experience with Alón that those around me are asking, "what are you doing?"   My husband is now also working with Alón, and I'm guessing it is only a matter of time before my mother signs up with him. I'm a little worried we'll run out of enough Alón time to go around!"

"Working with Alón has been an exciting, fun and productive experience. Alón is a warm and supportive person who knows how to work according to the personality of the client. I was really looking for someone to bounce ideas back and forth with and to encourage me in the right direction. Being a yogi, itwas important for me to work with someone who understands who I am and what I do. It didn't matter that Alón was in the US and I am in the UK - we were still always on the same wavelength, making the process smooth and the results truly creative. At some point I thought there was some telepathy going on there!

Thanks Alón, I can't wait to dream up my next move so I can call you up again!"

“Alon, I just wanted to drop to a line to let you know how much I enjoyed and valued your coaching. From your comprehensive information gathering, to your ability to drive the points home via multi-layered reasoning, as well as your causal and humorous delivery. In my opinion, you are a par excellence coach.

Well done, sir. Though I am not a big believer in psychic ability, to my amazement everything you said about what would happen at my studio came true. Alón, you are very talented and worth every penny I spent on your service.”

“As I scraped up the money for my first session, I have to admit I was skeptical.   At that point, it seemed like more than I had paid myself in a while.   I paid anyway, with the hope that maybe, just maybe, working with The Yoga Business Coach would be the answer.  

I had been in business for 4 years. Yoga was my passion and I knew I was doing what I was supposed to. But I was struggling –– not only with money, but also with time, management, marketing, balance… you name it.

I began working with Alón and instantly received confirmation that this was no mistake.   For the first time in years, I had a sounding board, coach, friend, and fellow yogi with whom I could talk about and develop my business. I felt supported, understood and never judged.  

There was something about our weekly meetings that made me start paying attention to the ways in which “I” affect my business.   When I was positive and balanced, my yoga studio reflected it.   When I was scattered or negative, my yoga studio reflected it.   This was one of the biggest gifts I received working with Alón –– the ability to connect the two. Through our work together, I developed the ability to reprogram years of negative thinking into a belief that I truly deserve success.

With that said, my business is doing better than ever. Alón helped me discover what was unique about my studio and encouraged me to celebrate it.   He gave me the tools to magnify my strengths and gave me permission to ask for help in other areas where I needed it.   The result, financially, in the year I've been working with Alón, my business has increased 65%!   Amazing!

So now, I can't imagine not spending the money each month! Before working with Alón, if you asked me if I would ever open a yoga studio again, I would have said “no.” If you asked me today, I would say, “yes!” without hesitation!”

"I am a psychotherapist and soon to be yoga therapist who had a dream. I dreamt of a place of community where people who wanted to share in wellness and spirit would gather together, connect, and bathe in the healing energies we each bring into this world. In my dream, healers and students danced together flowing toward equanimity.

And then –– in the process of naming, building and opening this center, I came close to having a nervous breakdown. Throughout this process, Alón has been responsible for keeping me from giving up and walking away from my dream. He has loved me, guided me, embraced my vision and cared deeply when I didn't care anymore. He has extended himself, gotten his hands dirty and continued giving when I had nothing left to give.

Today I am smiling and can once again see the essence of my dream. Terra Sky Center for Wellness is my new baby and I think the postpartum has lifted. I am looking forward to watching her grow.

Thank You Alón for being the best coach and friend any dreamer could ever hope for."

"Alón Sagee is part detective, uncovering the buried treasure within you, part savvy go-to guy about every business detail you can imagine, and entirely a friend and ally.

He always sees the big picture and every step needed to get there. He is frank and honest, totally kind and tons of fun. He helps you recover what you love about your business and value most in yourself, and then he teaches you how to effectively communicate that to your customers.

Alón helped make our uniqueness our greatest strength and strongest selling point. When refining our brand to match who we are in our community, Alón came up with the best tag line any New York City yoga studio could ever hope for!

Alón helped me to put myself into my business and to shape it into a unifying vision that will carry me forward for many years to come. "

“The recent article in Yoga Journal gave my Lovers' Yoga Retreats massive media exposure. With the number of visitors to my web site skyrocketing, I would have been totally screwed if Alón didn't take me by the hand and guide me.

I am burnt out on people who just give advice—so it felt refreshing to have Alón climb into the trenches with me and quickly design a system that has made capitalizing on all that great publicity fun and easy.

If your business is Yoga, then you automatically need Alón's guidance to help you get the ball rolling.”

With intelligence, patience, and a generous dollop of humor, Alón shares all the tools I need to succeed financially while helping others. I am deeply grateful for all the support I have received from the one and only Yoga Business Coach!"

“I was thumbing through Yoga Journal and saw a picture of a guy in a business suit practicing “tree pose.” This inspirational man turned out to be quite a blessing for me at just the right time in my life. Through a very rough period, it was he who supported me, guided me through the darkest times, celebrated my lessons, and held me up so that I could see over my limits.

When I first started working with Alón, my intention was to start a yoga business. I was focused and driven to delve into marketing techniques, find my niche and get down to business. My expectations, however, were blown out of the water when Alón started exploring my values in our first session. Values? I remembering thinking: ‘this guy is nuts.' What the heck do my values have to do with running and opening a yoga center? I quickly learned that for me, the exercise had everything to do with my entire life. I still carry the list of clarified values in my wallet, which now inform my daily decisions.

On the six-month adventure with Alón, I went from a lost surfer girl, to a confident, passionate, self caring, self respecting, and centered woman. I did not open my own Yoga center, because in working with Alón, I found my true gift in being a Life Coach for young people—and I couldn't be happier!

I will cherish my coaching relationship with Alón for the rest of my life! He was truly the catalyst I needed. I am now living more authentically, more passionately and am much more grounded. Having Alón as my coach was truly the best gift I ever gave myself.”

“Alón not only helped to clarify my vision for my business, he led me to the edge of my current business plateau and showed me the way to the pinnacle of success.  

Together, we have branded my special yoga niche, and made it ready for the world to see. From creating a logo and tagline, to revamping my website and expanding and updating my videos, Alón's creative ideas, experience and enthusiasm were there to guide me every step of the way.

His vision and purpose in life are so clear to him that it makes it easy for him to help others find their way.   I feel that he has helped me see the person who had been hidden from view within me by preconceived notions of who I was supposed to be.

When I was nervous about an upcoming video shoot, he reminded me that this wasn't about me, but about my yoga, my gift to the world -- I was merely a conduit for that gift.   With that thought in mind, I was able to produce wonderful results.

Not only has Alón helped my business grow; he has helped me grow as a person.   He has become a special friend in addition to being my trusted business coach.

Alón has made me laugh, and let me cry. He is not a typical businessman; he is one of a kind!”

"What if someone told you that your life would be completely different in six months?

Working with Alón Sagee was one of the best decisions I have made for my life, both professionally and personally.

I have danced professionally and taught fitness, Yoga and Pilates for most of my adult life. I had a dream to open my own Yoga and Pilates studio in Denmark and I needed help, guidance and coaching. I called Alón, and after a series of very direct and funny “getting to know you” questions, we delved into making my dream a reality.

The work that we have done together has had a profound effect on my life. Soon after beginning, Alón helped me realize that my personality, morals, ethics and teaching “gifts” would be the foundation of who I am as a business owner and what my business would stand upon. Through this process I was confronted by my own fears and doubts, but was determined to face them head on. With Alón's help, I walked over an imaginary line that seemed to have held me back for so many years.

I continue moving forward in my newfound reality, my life is different than it was six months ago. With Alón's guidance and support, I know in my heart I am on the right path. At times I still feel fear and doubt, but it no longer stops me, and as my personal strength grows, my business blossoms.

Alón openly shared his many years of experience as coach, consultant and yogi with me. I feel fortunate and blessed to have worked with him. I now have a reliable business adviser and a friend for life. I now know what it feels like to walk a warrior's path.

"I own a five-year-old fitness and yoga business, and began working with Alón in the spring of 2004. I initially called Alón because I was at a crossroads — experiencing a blur in my overall vision. Within minutes of my first session, I gained clarity and immediately became aware of Alón's value as a coach. Alón's wisdom and ability to calmly navigate me through my clutter has inevitably brought me back to an authentic and powerful vision for my business.

Alón is intuitive, knowledgeable and wise when it comes to the development of a yoga business. His ability to cut through the non-essentials and put you on the fast track to building your business is remarkable.

It was Alón's skillfulness and ability to listen to my deep intentions that has propelled Empowered Yoga into a whole new realm. He helped me re-brand, rename and reposition my business for success, and our weekly meetings have kept me productive and focused.

I know that without Alón's expertise, I would still be spinning my wheels in a state of confusion and frustration. I can't place a value on Alón… His help is invaluable to me, and my business!”

"When I saw Alón's ad, I knew immediately he provided something I needed. We began work together to clarify my work as a Yoga Therapist in private practice in a small California town. Out of this relationship came a clear, concise, compassionate means for me to reach out to my community and bring Yoga Therapy to people in need.

Alón's guidance helped me formulate a vision for my work and the means to make that vision a reality. My practice is now thriving, with lots of new clients. His support has been priceless each step of the way.

Alón's coaching is based on Yoga's foundation of doing no harm, contentment, honesty and personal integrity. Our work together allows me to freely explore my expression in the world.

In just a few sessions, Alón pointed me toward some obvious (sure, now they're obvious!) new actions I could take to get the new results I wanted ––as well as truths about myself I couldn't see.

He combines a savvy businessman's directness and ability to cut to the truth of (my) issues and obstacles, with the warmth and humor of a gentle and wise yogi.

"We began our relationship with Alón with the intention of getting a grasp on the business of yoga as we began the rebirth of our studio. We thought we were in need of facts and figures, contacts and procedures; the "nuts and bolts" of this new business venture. After a single session with Alón, we learned that the work we needed to do was actually within ourselves. Alón managed through insight and guidance and laughter to show us that our yoga business is nothing more nor less than an extension of ourselves, our personalities, impossible to separate one from another.

 

The work we have done with Alón has helped our business immensely. Despite the fears and challenges we have faced, our studio is thriving, our brand is clear, our students are happy, and we're creating a deep community.

 

Alón has helped us to view and understand and expand our personalities into the studio and share them with our students. It's been an empowering relationship that ripples outward. If we were to give advice to anyone wanting to build their yoga business it would be to come to Alón with questions, concerns, and a very open mind. Be prepared to answer questions you may never have been asked, ponder your most private self, and above all, be prepared to laugh."

"Alón has been such a positive asset for my business as well as personal growth. Being new to the business of yoga I was sort of at a loss as to where to begin. With Alón's' program I have been able to see through a lot of my “mind clutter,” and allow clarity and growth to come forth.  

In our phone conversations he has always been able to get to the heart of any matter and to shed light on what I needed to work on next, while always being a trustful friend at heart, listening or sharing a bit of advice.  

It is very heartwarming to have a fellow Yogi by my side to help guide me through my journey of sharing the awesome gift of Yoga with others.   I would recommend anyone thinking about utilizing Alón's gifts to do so."

"Working with Alón has been a blessing. I started Bliss Yoga with little to no background in owning and running a business. Alón has helped me to define my values which has helped me to build a business consistent with my deepest true feelings. He has always been there to support me, guide me and work with me to bring ideas to fruition.

Alón has been especially helpful in helping me design a marketing campaign that fits my budget and expresses and defines my vision for Bliss. The response has been excellent. I think we really came up with ideas that touched my audience and drew them to my business. Within a short time of working with Alón on Press Releases, articles on Bliss have been published in both local papers, articles which really helped my business.

I will continue to work with Alón as my business grows. I have come to depend on his insight, courage and wisdom, and on knowing he has Bliss’ best interest at heart."

"Alón Guided me to connect with my truth around believing in my work and developing a business. He helped me to overcome blocks that had held me back from success for a long time.

He truly has an insightful, gentle, yet firmly confident approach in assisting people to work their edges and step into the greater fullness of themselves and their gifts to share. He works from a place of unconditional love, and in so doing supports his clients to come from that place for themselves and the people they serve."

"A few years following around spiritual teachers and a few more in an ashram, taught us to own our own baggage, which to us is the minimum requirement for teaching Yoga.  Recognizing that same journey in our students and loving them through it is a good start...  But putting all that together with business -- it's enough to melt your brain. 

Alón is masterful at revealing that your personal story, whatever makes you you -- is your product, and it's priceless.  But to connect what we're
offering to what people need in a fair, effective, and professional way, most of us need to learn a few new asanas, which Alón teaches well."

"I started my work with Alón roughly one year ago. At the time, I was literally being battered by life. My love relationship was in tatters, my career was seemingly headed for oblivion, and even my dog had health issues! Enter Alón–– and fast forward one year: Now I am living on my own for the first time, having relocated to the city of my dreams; I have started my own successful company employing over a dozen people, and even my pooch is in amazing shape!

I know that this just reflects an inner shift in perspective, to which I owe Alón and God my undying gratitude. Do I have my challenges still? Sure. But, I now have skills and tools with which to access information, guidance, courage, and heart –– and I use them to grow instead of wither.

Alón's skillful blend of honesty, humor, and support has been invaluable to me. I am truly blessed by his presence in my life"

"I worked with Alón for a few months during a period of management restructuring, basically moving me out of doing a lot of the day-to-day and setting up my first full-time Managing Director of the studio. Having been in business for 5 years, it was time to establish it to run more without me so that I could pursue additional creative outlets. He was able to relay stories of how other studio owners were doing things which helped provide models. He is encouraging and supportive, truly a great resource for yoga business owners."

"There are so few people who actually walk their talk, but I believe wholeheartedly that Alón is one of those people.

Alón is a great coach. In every conversation we have, regardless of whether it’s about my business, my hopes and dreams, or my need to vent, Alón is there for me 100%. He has an uncanny way of knowing what I need even before I do and supporting me in that way. Alón can be gentle but tough, loving, insightful, positive, spiritual and hysterically funny all in the span of a single phone call.

In my work with Alón, I feel that I have gained much more than being a better marketer or learning how to earn a higher income; I feel I have learned how to be a better human being.

If you are struggling, Alón can help you get your business up and running. If you are wildly successful, Alón will help keep you grounded and humble! I highly recommend Alón as a coach to anyone in business.

“Alón's business coaching skills are beyond all our expectations.   He embodies so much more than just technical expertise — he actually puts the breath of life into the meaning of business.   His unique approach makes coaching feel exciting in each moment.   His words and thought processes are continuously getting our creative juices flowing with limitless possibilities for our lives. Alón's focus on the wholeness of our being and how our business is a part of that wholeness is very refreshing.

Alón is not only a devoted business coach, but has become a true friend of heart.   If we were to associate one phrase with Alón's skills, it would be 'manifest your dreams.' ”

"Working with Alón has helped me to see the potential in myself and my mission; and given me the tools to bring that potential to fruition. Alón has given me so much insight and guidance into how to market my business. For example, through subtle shifts in words and images, he has taught me how to design flyers and other printed material that really reach out and grabs a student's attention. As a result, attendance in our classes and workshops has increased!

Alón's undying belief in yoga as a means to bring greater peace into the world fuels the fire in all of us committed to that same goal."

"As a self-employed musician and producer who relies on word of mouth advertising, it has been easy to get lazy about marketing. Coaching with Alón was just the catalyst I needed. His wisdom, focus, and motivation were instrumental in taking my career to the next level."
