TANIA WARREN-STILSON
owner of Uniglobe Travel

 

"I met Tanya only a few short months ago as a mutual friend brought us together in hopes of future business opportunities (which I still one day hope to possibly explore). I began attending the noon hour classes of Yoga with Tanya. I added more fruit to my diet, and recorded what I ate. I watched my portion sizes and chose water more often than coffee. I learned to listen and become aware of my body and how it reacted to different stimulus and food.

Tanya's warmth and support radiated throughout her classes and came to true light during our weekly meetings. She was supportive and inspirational and yet there was always this underlying wisdom that I still feel I have barely began to explore. I feel better about myself physically and balance wise than I think I ever have and I know I have only begun this journey.

I hope that Tanya continues to shine her beautiful light upon the world and share her knowledge and passion."

"My daughter and I harbor such fond, loving memories of you ... your compassion, drive to help each one of us feel good about our bodies and selves, and your supreme understanding of people ... what matters, what makes them tick, and mostly their need to feel special.

Thank you seems so ordinary to express appreciation for the EXTRAORDINARY way you have helped me appreciate my body.
 
Aging is not kind to our bodies, despite on-going exercise, and it is sometimes difficult to accept our bodies "as they are" and love them.  The yoga classes and boot camp have reinforced all the positives, and awakened me to the fact that my body is still flexible and open to change and motion.   It is exciting for me to see toning taking place and pounds falling ... albeit slowly.  But I know it can be done with diligence. Tanya you have given me the incentive and encouragement to be kind to my body and I realize one doesn't have to knock themselves out to get results.
 
Through Yoga, I have gained a renewed sense of calm, alertness, and self-confidence.  I WANT to help myself and know with little effort that can be done.  Your gentle, reassuring method of instruction makes each class participant believe in themselves; and that certainly is the first step to achieving success.
 
BodyArt sessions have given me an entire new awareness of who I am, and what matters in my life.  Being able to talk about our human weaknesses, personal successes, and the 'hard times' among friends has proven so therapeutic.  I realize despite our place in life, we all are subject to the same pitfalls, stresses, and  heartaches ... and sharing is healing.   It is this openness that puts us in touch with our true self.
 
From the bottom of my heart I thank you for giving of your time, knowledge, and sharing your art  for the betterment of my mind, body and spirit."

"Crowning moment was my 16-year-old son telling his friends "Hey, my mom has a six pack". And he wasn't talking about beer!

I found all sorts of reasons to justify how I was different and why this could not be achieved by some one like myself. I felt that I was too old, out of shape and was consumed with too many responsibilities. I have a husband, three children, work fulltime, volunteer commitments, and martial arts classes. I was just too busy and truly felt that for myself this was an unachievable goal.

Tanya provided continual support and encouragement to get back on track no matter how discouraged I felt - regardless of setbacks I felt or perceived. A bad day or week didn't mean failure. You just get back on track and give it another go! Small steps, one foot at a time.

The physical result was weight loss, overall fat loss and increased lean muscle mass. The mental result was confidence and renewed self-respect. I now have a whole new outlook on what I can achieve in my life.  Thank you Tanya for helping me find my way! "
