"Through this magical practice I've lost over 70 pounds (so far!), dramatically revitalized my immune system, began un-aging and relocated my amazing feminine power and sexuality - and not only has it NOT been a struggle but the experience has been and continues the MOST inspired practice I've EVER experienced - it's unlike anything I've ever encountered before and should be experienced by every woman AT LEAST once!"!

TESTIMONIAL - "Hey Nicole, I received your Belly Dancing DVD and enjoyed watching it very much!   You look fabulous!  In my opinion, you must have been a belly dancer in another lifetime. You are a great teacher!  You explain and demonstrate the movements very thoroughly...I will use the DVD to practice my snake arms, chest pops, ummies and figure eights (which you explained much better than my instructor) to name a few...Good for you in all you are doing.  One day, I will see you in action. - Love and Light, Marilyn"
