? - June ?, 2010

"I will always remember your yoga classes and the way you made every single mom-to-be feel nurtured so that they could, in turn, nurture their baby (if only it was so easy to know what they want when they are outside of the womb, too!). You create a very warm and comforting environment and I am just sad that I didn't get to attend your class more often (and also sad that you don't teach a mommy and infant yoga class!). I'm sure I speak for all the moms that attend your classes when I say thank you so much for your gentle and comforting nature."
