Greetings Sistar Tirra. I must say this - I simply LOVE your way of conducting your class. The supportive environment offered by you and your students both is super awesome. (and I love the way you mop up the sweat from the floor when needed!) I pray your class continues to prosper and grow and help all to be healthier in body, mind and spirit!
