“I think Tina is an amazing woman, teacher, wife and mother. She does what she loves, and I admire that she is giving and teaching good things for people everywhere. “
Share a memorable moment from an infant massage class: Having time to talk with the parents, who came in for the free class. Listening to them and their experiences with their new baby was both informational and fun.
What have you learned from a family (or baby) in your classes? That babies are just like little people. If watched closely (i.e. asking permission to receive massage) they will in fact give you cues of their denial or acceptance.
What makes you happy? Sharing Positive experiences with others; when we work, or have fun, and enjoy the beauty this life has to offer.
What makes you sad? When others are stuck in a place of turmoil, and when they are unable to find peace with themselves.
