When I started coming to classes at Doza several months ago, I never expected to have such a transformative experience- both inside and outside. I hadn’t taken care of my body in many years and I felt rusty, stiff, and… at times really disappointed in myself, especially when looking in the mirror.
What the instructors didn’t realize, was that I had just gone through the most difficult time of my life and I was battling so much back home; struggling to feel peace or certainty, and living with a lot of fear and anxiety. Entering the classes was a fresh start, to shut my mind and leave it all at the door.
Over the weeks to follow, Rachelle, Claudia and Leisa’s classes were truly part of a healing journey that I will remember for the rest of my life. There are many wonderful instructors at Doza, but these three women specifically have truly been a catalyst for reshaping not only my body, but my mind.
Each class really challenges you to move — but while listening to your own needs. They’re tough, but inviting to all levels. And I have never felt so welcomed in a class environment before.
On a deeper level, so many of their messages had consistently resonated with what I was experiencing, I often had to hide my face under my sweaty towel at the end of class because I couldn’t hold back tears.
I am so grateful to have started my wellness journey at Doza, and even despite how busy they are during the summer months, I have still managed to fill my schedule each week with all the classes I enjoy! So don’t let the crowds deter you!
However, I am definitely looking forward to the cool air, the more spacious rooms, and to continue learning from this beautiful team of women over at Doza in the fall. (I got a lot of work to do, lol.)
Anyway, I love Doza and the women that make it what it is. THANK YOU for allowing me to be part of such a special place.
