Thank you so much for offering these classes. I've found them motivating, informative, good for me, and fun- stretching, groaning, working a bit of heart- pumping action and dancing with a great little group of folks. You are an excellent teacher with just the right amount of attentiveness to our needs for prompting, prodding and encouraging us with directives for when to breathe, where to feel, how much to push, and why it helps. (physiological explanations) . I've adopted one of your coachy phrases that I've found surprisingly simple and helpful in pretty much any situation; "Where can I soften?"
