Quotes from previous retreats 

	Thank you for your sensitivity and gentility in seeing each of us as individuals, and allowing us to discover at our own pace.  - Naomi Goldman, Santa Barbara
	I'm not sure which I liked more, your sense of humor or your down-to-earth spirituality.  - Denalda D. Roth, Santa Fe, New Mexico
	Wow!  You made me sing.  You made me dance.  You made me fly, fly through the sky.  You took me by the hand and led me through the 'fear barrier'.  It's lovely over on this side.  You teach much more than singing.  - Sarah Weaver, Vancouver, B.C.
	I feel completely different in my body.  My walk feels lighter.  I stand differently.  When I look in the mirror my face looks younger, yet more mature all at the same time.  Thank you for opening so many doors.  - Cathy Ballard, New York, NY
