Duncan - Oct 11,
2009
son of Anne-Marie
"I've said it before, but I truly think that regular
pre-natal yoga practice was the best thing I did in preparation for
Duncan's arrival. To be sure, know that your voice was in my head
during L&D, reminding me to 'breathe into it', and 'everything
is as it should be'. I can't thank you enough for all the ways you
helped me that you may not even be aware of!" |
Yitzy - Oct 9,

yoga class; I looked forward to the stretching, relaxation and 'pregnant
woman camaraderie' every Saturday morning at Yogaview -- it gave me
a chance to savor my pregnancy and focus on the new baby growing inside

at home!" |

"I loved your yoga class and looked forward to
it each week, and sometimes even twice in a week. You provided such

and seeing you every week really kept me going.
You are an amazing woman." |
Ben - June 11,
2009
son of Anne
"Thank you so much for your wonderful prenatal
yoga class. I loved it when I was pregnant and found during labor
that the weekly practice had helped me learn -- and remember -- some
crucial comfort measures. I had my husband use one of the partner
exercises to press on my lower back during every contraction. The
visualizations you did with us were so helpful to my own relaxation
and connection with my baby during pregnancy. I wished you had been
at my labor to help guide me through visualization then, too!"

made some great friends and really appreciated your visualization

such an encouraging and inspiring teacher. I'll never forget my time
in your class." |

Riley - May 18,
2009
son of Jess
"Even though we had to stray hugely from our labor
plan on the day of our birth, I felt a lot more peace than I would
have had I not taken your class. I believe you helped put me in the
right mentality of relaxation that both allowed me to try and labor
for as long as I did, as well as surrender our plans when they were
clearly not going to work for us. I felt far more empowered and capable
in my labor as a result of your class, despite the fact that we ultimately
ended with a c-section. Thank you Dee!" |
John - May 18,
2009
son of Angie
"My labor was calm and peaceful, better than I
could have hoped for! I really enjoyed your Saturday class and think

class with Pam was helpful with what to expect during labor and delivery.

now!" |

23, 2009
daughter of Lauren
"As with my first, your class really helped
to reinforce the hypnobirthing techniques that I used to get through
the pitocin-induced contractions!
I truly believe that your class was the reason that I was relatively
comfortable physically throughout the 40+ weeks."

"I went through 30 hours of laborand if it were
not for your class I do not think I would have made it. I usedmany
of the yoga techniques, breathing and imagery from your class. Yourexpertise,
warmth and inspiring words are a true gift to pregnant women.I look
forward to resuming my yoga practice once I am
fully recovered." |
Tekla - Feb 26,

and delivery--and pregnancy in general--without your prenatal yoga
class. I looked forward to class every week. It made me feel so connected
to the baby and made me confident that I was strong enough physically
and mentally to have a great delivery. And I gotta give tons of credit
to the birthing class with Pam at your home as well for teaching me
all I needed to know and more. Thank you so much for everything!"

physically and emotionally but helped me to connect with my baby even
more. I'm already missing it!" |
Emerson - Jan 24,
2009
son of Brooke
"I can't thank you enough for the wonderful prenatal
yoga classes. The breathing and stretching you taught us were so helpful,
both for keeping me moving in the last weeks of pregnancy, and for
getting through the delivery with no trouble. In fact, my doctor kept
complimenting me on how well I tolerated labor and delivery and asked
what my secret was! I'm
a little sad that I have to wait until my next pregnancy to come to
your class again, but I hope to see you around the yoga studio sometime
soon!" |

2009
son of Jessica
"I credit yoga for not only getting me pregnant
but helping me to maintain a healthy pregnancy and a relatively easy
labor. I did, however, end up downloading the Diva Primal song we
listen to each week and I kept replaying it for the entire car ride…and
I definitely credit that with helping me make it to the hospital.Thank
you again for everything!" |
