“The class was thoughtfully laid out by the instructors, making it easy to learn the movements.
There was a good balance of time spent moving and sitting while instructions were provided. It was obvious that the instructors were experienced with the form and its applications and were having fun with sharing what they know. I'm looking forward to seeing the long-term effects of practicing this form daily since it already has provided me with energy and clarity as well as improvements to an achey body part. So grateful for having the opportunity to learn this form with two wonderful instructors.”
