TESTIMONIALS

“I really love the combo of the wisdom-sharing circles and Qigong. I leave every session feeling nourished in mind, body and spirit. You have created something beautiful, sacred and powerful there!

Thank you, Patti, for your thoughtful teachings, your generous and loving spirit, and your courage to show up and be vulnerable. Thank you also for "daring greatly" and sharing your poems each week! Being Patti, you are truly an inspiration! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

“Just sat down at the end of a long day (feeling kind of tired, stressed and overwhelmed) and took some time to myself to read through this week’s treasure trove. I wanted to let you know what a remarkable gift it is—that you have taken the time to carefully and thoughtfully choose these words and share them with each of us. It is always evident that you put a great deal of time, attention and planning into each of the circles and even more so with our latest journey into the Four Agreements. I really needed to read them again, and have another chance to absorb the meaning. I also noticed that it helps me feel as present as possible during the circle because the words are captured here to reflect on. I know your time is precious, and I feel so fortunate that you have chosen to spend your time leading circles of women—and very grateful that our paths have crossed.”

“I just wanted to to say thank you for what you have created!!! This weekly gathering has far exceeded my expectations, and your sincerity and genuine open hearted-ness make it a truly safe place to come to every Monday. I look forward to continuing in April.”

"I looked very forward to learning more about qigong and figured it would be a positive experience because of the group, the place, and my own intentions, but I have to say that what I got out of Patti’s classes, by far, exceeded my expectations. The instruction, discussions, and movements together, awakened me to a wisdom of how to work with my body and mind in a way that can promote and sustain good health. Patti’s impassioned modeling of movements and her growing knowledge of the body and all of its interconnections were inspiring, to say the least. I imagine that qigong works best for individuals in a group when there is a feeling of safety, meaning, and connection, and for me this was attained right from the onset. I plan on making qigong a lifelong practice, and I absolutely LOVE the idea that this is a devotion of living and practicing grace."

"A beautiful experience of qigong with like minded individuals in a warm and supportive environment. Patti leads a class that is thoughtful, intentional and steeped in tips and background information. You can come for initial exposure, to practice in a group or to learn more about the specific benefits of each movement."

- Katrina Campbell

“From the moment I walk in the door for one of Patti's classes I instantly feel at ease as her warm welcome and true concern for her student's comfort radiates. Patti has a strong intuition on what to focus on in the session to best benefit each individual. She clearly explains and guides each movement and its intention so anyone new to the class can easily follow along and she often uses different verbiage which helps each student connect in different ways. I come out of Patti's classes feeling lighter and deeply content, and I am grateful for Patti and her gift of qigong. "

"Signing up for qigong with Patti, was one of the best things I did for myself this year!! I had tried qigong in the past but it did not resonate, like it has with our Monday morning class!! I'm very grateful and blessed to have had the opportunity to spend my Monday mornings with such a great group of ladies!! Thanks Patti, my life has a sense of balance, that I now feel!"
