I loved the class. I finally felt like I had a place to relax and be present. I didn’t expect to get emotional at the times I did. Right after class I felt almost dreamy and peaceful, yet reflective.  I do feel more grounded today despite chaos at work and some personal stuff, and I felt like I was a little better equipped to deal with those situations today. It was like a tiny vacation. I truly truly love the vibe of the whole experience you created last night. Thank you.  -M.J.

I felt so hopeful and refreshed after I left the class. I really appreciated the stillness and calm that you brought into the space and the non-hurried environment that was so crucial to be present and in the moment for the class.  -Kelly B.

​

The explanations of things were so helpful, the space is lovely and relaxing. Also the continued reassurance and acknowledgment of being able to do or not do a position if one wasn't comfortable was really trauma centered which was great to see and experience. I'm so glad I signed up!  -Tamrha R.

​

The class was a great way to settle down my nervous system. When I arrived, I felt kind of keyed up, which is pretty normal for me. After class, I felt a lot more present and didn't have that sense of go go go. Later that evening, my fitness tracker said it detected a nap at 6:45PM. It has never done that before unless I actually took a nap. Even sunbathing or relaxing with a book don't register as naps. I was puzzled and then I remembered, aha, I was at Release and Refresh during that time.  -Lesa K.

I really liked how attentive you both were. I felt like you both truly cared about my experience.  –Maggie K.

Release and Refresh was very, very good for me... I really enjoyed it and I believe it will help me tremendously to calm and heal.  –Dawn W.

​

I loved the class! I really appreciate how y’all take things slow in explanation and practice. It’s soothing and chill. I plan to be at all future classes as I can. Thank you for the good work you’re doing!  –Callahan G.

​

The class was wonderful! The flow, pace and ambience was perfect. I felt very grounded after the class and much more “present” than when I arrived… Thank you for creating this space for us!  -Zuri M.

 

I appreciate the format and intentionality put into the classes… They give me the structure and support to reach the "settledness" my body needs and enjoys.  -Rachel H.

 

The group was amazing. I thought 2 hours was going to feel like a long time, but it didn’t. I was quite surprised that our time was coming to a close when it did. It was the perfect amount of time.  -Mike T.

 

I found the class very beneficial! I felt so relaxed and light at the end. I didn’t want it to end.  -Jaicie C.

​

I loved the class! I thought the balance of the deep stretches and the guided reflections was unique and very helpful. I felt very open and sensitive afterwards.  -Tyler G.

​

I actually have been raving about class since it happened on Friday. I was able to come home and go to sleep unassisted by meds for the first time in four years. And my body feels a LOT better! I plan to be back, and I have another friend who wants to join me!  -Lindsey A.

​

I can’t share just how big of an impact that class had. I was relieved when someone said this isn’t a typical yoga class, we weren’t going to do crazy hand stand poses. I’m on the bigger size and this was huge relief that this would be an inclusive class! Another reason I enjoyed this class so much is you guys made sure we made the poses work for us. Accommodations were welcomed! By the time I walked out, I felt like cinder blocks had been lifted off my back, emotionally and physically.  -Jess J.

​

I truly enjoyed the class. It was very trauma informed which I appreciated. The 10 minutes at the beginning and end was a valuable transition period. It was also helpful to go over the poses that we would be doing in class prior to diving in, as this took away the anxiety of the unknown. Having two people coordinating different parts of the class simultaneously was a tremendous idea. I could listen to your voice and follow along with the prompts while being assisted in a comfortable position. I appreciated all the varied types of props available so that each of us could find our own level of comfort. I am a fidgeter and have great difficulty relaxing, but after this class I felt a grounding and peacefulness for the rest of the evening, and actually had a great night sleep too.  -P.Z.
