What past volunteers write to us about their experience:

Aloha Star, Aloha Hayward,
I hope everything is fine with you and with yoga oasis.
I'm back in Germany. It's cold and hard for me to live here the way i used to live in Hawaii.
But since i'm here i realize how much i could learn in Yoga Oasis. I got little bit stronger and much more self confidence.
i just want to thank you all for the time i could stay there and for all the things i could learn. it was the space and lessons i needed in my life. i really appreciate what you did for me. With Yoga i found a way back to feel my body and to learn about my body and finally accept it the way it is at the moment. Also to learn more about food and a different way to eat.
It is challenging back in Germany with family and friends to be the "new" and changed person and to continue living my and the healthy way.
Well, my school starts tomorrow and i will move to another town, which, i hope makes it little bit easier.
i thank you and hope i will come to hawaii again.
Greetings from Germany
