"I attended to your class in DC in 2005. My name is Katia and I'm from Brazil. These days I remembered about you and your thai massage class and decided to look for you at the internet, so I found this e-mail. I don't know if I told you, but your classes were really helpful. I learned a lot, thanks! Big hug!!"
