"As time passes and we experience other teachers it is difficult to find anyone who comes close to reaching the standards you set. Your teaching lives on and shines on our hearts despite the passage of time." Alan Revere, Master Goldsmith, award-winning jewelry designer"Often when we make love, the excitement propels us to move forward too quickly, and it it ends too soon. You showed us the concept of building slowly but steadily towards an astounding level of joy and sharing, not only of our sexual excitement, but the deep physical and spiritual elements that make the entire experience of making love a more rewarding and exciting experience. Thank you both for a great workshop!" Ron & Orpha E."I enjoyed your method of presentation. The different exercises you chose created a fun and playful progression of learning the tantric practice. I look forward to participating again in a workshop with you both." Susan Donovan, Realtor
