In Their Own Words
A few reviews that come up again and again when students describe what changed.
“Great Energy Yoga and Qigong Certification is truly exceptional. Christopher and Daniela bring a beautiful balance of deep knowledge, authenticity and heart to everything they teach. Their instruction goes far beyond learning movements — it's an immense experience that honors the mind, body and spirit. The training is thoughtfully structured, accessible and deeply transformational. They model the very energy, presence and integrity they teach.”
“When I let old beliefs go, that not-good-enough belief stuck around. It stuck around until the first time you said that loving yourself was how we love others. The first Sacred Sunday I attended, the word I heard during 'I am' was good. I am good. That was unimaginable freedom. You've shown me myself and others in a different light.”
“When I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's, I felt overwhelmed. Working with Daniela helped me realize that healing is about much more than managing symptoms. She has a deep reverence for both science and the wisdom of lived experience, helping me understand the connections between nutrition, stress, lifestyle, emotional well-being, and nervous system health. She helped me move from feeling overwhelmed and reactive to feeling grounded, informed, and capable of navigating my health with greater confidence and self-trust. One of the greatest gifts of this work has been learning to trust myself again.”
“Part 1: Pre-practice conversation. Grumble. Snappy retort with some resentment. Intermission: I go for movement, forgiveness practice, and meditation. Part 2: forgiveness, love and laughter. I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you. Hugs, smooches, and giggles. The end.”
