It was such a great joy to be part of your workshop and also to see all the women bloom and loose their fears and intimidations during the short three hours. I’d love to do it again!

Jacky Dear,

Your workshop was delightful! Your sensitivity to women and teaching style are gentle and this creates a beautiful space for people to heal. Also, you teach the dance moves very well for even very new dancers to learn. But most of all, your spirit shines through and this is a blessing for us all. Thank you so very much. With Love and Gratitude,

With no experience in African dance, I found the workshop so powerful for helping to relieve some constriction in my stomach area. It was so effective toward healing, and I felt so joyous in the process. Thank you very much!

Thank you for sharing your roots with us. You have the gift of teaching and spreading the beauty of your culture. We are very lucky to have you. I especially like the community / spirit connection that is created through the movement, dance and music. I love the free movements most. Thank you.

I was feeling very stressed on arriving due to a hectic work, changes in my life plus a leaky living room with a soaked carpet smelling all musty. Your workshop brought back my happiness and warmth plus made me feel relaxed and centered. Thanks for such a fun and energizing workshop! I loved the stories with each dance step. Thank you Jacky.

Merci encore pour hier, j'ai ressenti des choses si fortes, et une telle liberté! Cette danse en cercle, poussée par les cris de vous toutes, et ennivrée par la musique, j'étais comme ailleurs, et en même temps vraiment présente dans mon corps. J'y pense encore...!

Hi Jacky! Thanks so much for your email, I thank you and Spirit! I look forward to your next workshop in June. I know that you are quite busy so I will only take enough of your time to say that your energy and authenticity and gentle, wise, yet childlike spirit along with the grounded steps of your cultural dances, really resonated with me, I am just learning to move my body again, from my heart, and celebrate, your workshop was really helpful and positive.

Melany, Vancouver

Hi Jacky, I did not fill out a form because I wanted to give you feedback on your wonderful workshop individually and now I cannot find the words to express the gratitude for the journey you took me on, on Sat. I feel like a different person today; lighter, looser, more joyful, more myself. Thank so much and I would love to attend again. Please keep in touch.

Diane, Vancouver

Hi Jacky,

Thank you for a wonderful afternoon on Sunday. My friends and I really enjoyed & benefited from it. For me, I especially enjoyed tracking my beautiful lioness through the Savanna & becoming her, and dancing the choreography!

You are doing a lot of good work, & we appreciate all that you share with your heart and soul!
