I had a boundaries / friendship dilemma, and Blaize led me through an integration session where I felt so seen and heard. I am always amazed at the well-rounded wisdom I receive, and this time was no different: I entered the session spinning, full of confusing contradictory feelings, and I left with a plan for how to process and move through these feelings, and a sense of clarity and direction on what to do next in relation to the external situation. Thank you, Blaize!!

I really appreciated the variety of options and modifications that they offered for each pose -- I really felt like I was performing my own flow, under their guidance even in class full of participants. I would enthusiastically recommend trying them out as a yogi, coach, or any service they offer, because with Blaize you know you're getting someone who gives everything they have to the present moment, and truly wants nothing more than to tend to you personally. In a world where a lot of wellness practitioners seem to care more about their bottom line than your wellness, Blaize is a refreshing change of pace.

I first came across the collective bag in 2022 when I was going to a very hard time as a nursing…read morestudent in an accelerated nursing program as I was grieving and going through a difficult breakup. I saw that there was this event in LA through Soul and Sound that had Jennifer plus her students scheduled to bless us with sound healing. When all of the sound healing practitioners share their background, I was an odd to hear that some of them were registered. Nurses were in different intersections that led them down this creative path of sound healing. Before this, I would always drive over an hour to Orange County for sound baths and rarely found any sound baths facilitated and created by women of color. Jennifer and her students played a beautiful sound bath for us all in this high acoustics warehouse and I was absolutely taken away. I then continued to follow her business online for 3.5 years and waited to see her next classes that she would offered. I saw she offered breathe work classes, as well as sound healing. I ended up registering for Sound Bowl Healing. I signed up first last year but life was " life-ing " and I couldn't attend. Then this year I was able to join in the spring. I had a lot going on, but I still felt very included and welcomed. Honestly, Jenifer was very patient and gracious with me to allow me to attend and participate. I love how she's stressed the vital importance of us as new sound bowl practitioners, to continue to do our inner work and encourage us to never stop reflecting, and never stop healing. She is emphasized how it's our responsibility to never stop doing our own self-care and to remain open and curious in our own journey towards balance of love and peace in all of the dark and light. So excited to play & co-create‍

I came out of the certification program with so much confidence and access to so many resources to help me on my journey to be a successful sound meditation facilitator. Only 3 months in and I am already facilitating corporate wellness events with over 100 people as well as hosting events in my own community in Oxnard, CA. I highly recommend this training course to anyone looking to deeper their knowledge of this healing art form. Jennifer's network and mentorship are invaluable so this is the place to be!

I can honestly say that I felt the calming effects of the Vedic technique within the first day of learning from her and I am so pleased as to how motivated I am to continue the twice daily meditations with her - especially given my very short attention span! Paula KNOWS what she is teaching and her approach is with care, sprinkled with a great sense of humor. There was not one moment where I felt that she was trying to "sell me" about this technique In the way other practices may do. Her technique is simple, logical and I am wondering why more people aren't learning about Vedic meditation! Thank you Paula!! :)

I realized that while I was living & reaching goals, I was not really living fully & nothing sparked joy anymore. I was in a sense of survival for much of my life; I grew very strong as a sense of emotional safety, but it left me empty. Marrisa created a safe space for me to heal from past trauma/grief & provided tools to help reset my nervous system & as a result, I am more comfortable in my own skin than I've ever been.

It gave me peace of mind and comfort knowing I had her there to support me during the labor and delivery, especially in dealing with unforeseen circumstances and talking with the hospital staff. she also helped me out postpartum which was absolutely amazing. Her calming presence in our home helped me to truly relax and begin my journey recovering and being a new mother. She was so helpful answering our endless questions about the baby, breastfeeding, etc. Hire her it's so worth it!

Hiring Robyn to support and guide me as my doula was the best decision and brought me (and my…read morehusband) so much reassurance, sense of security, and confidence heading into my first pregnancy. The two at-home sessions leading up to my hospital birth were so informative and really made my husband and I feel as prepared as possible to think through lots of different scenarios (and much more informative than any labor course we took!). Robyn is clearly incredibly experienced, professional, and so deeply cares about the mamas and partners she supports. Robyn was always available and on the night I went into labor, she was in constant contact guiding us during the time leading up to our hospital arrival. She was there waiting for us at 1am ready to go - she was so prepared and immediately made me feel at ease for this unknown experience. All of the techniques she offered me, the constant emotional and physical support during labor (she is a talented masseuse!!), and her encouragement and backing of all my birth preferences (including ensuring our gender reveal stayed a surprise until the very end!) made the day such a positive experience. Not to mention, had Robyn not been there, I felt there was a very high likelihood I would have had to have had a cesarean birth due to my extended labor process. Instead, the techniques and positions Robyn worked with the doctors and nurses to offer meant that I got to have the safe and healthy delivery I had hoped for. Robyn also set an incredible vibe (music, candlelight, relaxing aromatherapy, honey sticks for energy!) that made the room feel special instead of cold and sterile. My husband and I both agreed that having Robyn as our doula was one of the best decisions and we have a beautiful, healthy baby girl and only positive memories of the labor experience because she was such an important part of our birthing team. We love you Robyn!!

But while initially I was receiving appropriate response, at a certain point Kristin stopped responding to text chain she had started. While I completely respect busy schedules, if one truly is a healer and of a compassionate mind-set (and not simply in this for the $$), a compassionate response such as, "Hi, just super busy, but I hope to see you there tonight" after I'd paid the Vemmo and the appropriate follow up email I was promised would have been both the compassionate and professional response. (Or: I am not seeing your payment, can you send the confirmation? Or: I'm sorry, the event shows it's full; I apologize that there is no longer room). ANY communication back would have been better to dropped communication. So it seems that Kristin is communicative up to a certain point but if you require help with payment or follow up to attend, you might find yourself stranded as we were.
