Testimonials<br />
• “I really enjoy yoga! It's really nice to be able to take time just for yourself and<br />
focus on yourself. Also I like how it helps with self confidence and acceptance. I<br />
think it helps me focus on my strengths and accept my weaknesses and<br />
acknowledge that there's nothing I need to change about myself which I think is<br />
truly amazing.” - Claire<br />
• “Yoga at school has helped me so much throughout the semester. I always feel<br />
so refreshed and energized after the sessions in PE and it helps me focus really<br />
well in my next class. I look forward to the yoga here every Friday and after<br />
getting exposed to it at school, I have done yoga on my own throughout the<br />
semester to relax when I stress out from school.” – Jenna<br />
• “Now when I go through problems or face challenges I just meditate and focus<br />
on my breathing, which I learned from yoga.” - Anthony<br />
• “My favorite part of yoga was the relaxation part because I found that it really<br />
helped me make it through the day.” - Sam<br />
• “Yoga has helped me discover who I am as a person. Now, I am more in touch<br />
with my feelings. I listen to my body a lot more.” - Veronica
