I just want to say, THANK YOU, JESSY. You just don't know the impact you have on a lot of us. You have taught us more than dancing, more than how to improve our faarapu 😆.. You have taught us to live a life that is with purpose and with gratitude. You have pushed us to be STRONG - to be our best!!! MORE IMPORTANTLY you have guided us to achieve our goals.

My top most favorite of this 'Ori Tahiti Challenge is Jessy Muñoz; her loving & caring energy and leadership style. I appreciate her encouragement of having the mindset prior to and during the challenge: To figure out and then be true to your "why" and express your True Self. 

This was the first time I danced with you and I'm so glad I got the opportunity to do so. It was a wonderful experience. Your mana radiates to us all! I love your energy and your mental exercises. You always made my day happier. Even though I've danced for years, I was never taught exactly how to move every part of my body, to engage my muscles and crunch all around, not just my core. I'm so proud of myself for improving in just 4 weeks of practice.

I wasn't feeling deeply connected with ‘ori tahiti... and I have to say that this Challenge really changed that!.. I enjoyed every single moment of this challenge, I learned technique, vocabulary and i learned more of myself! Jessy Muñoz I love how you teach, your vibe and how you make it feel like we're really dancing together! I just can say thank you for motivating me to get out of my comfort zone, and for sharing your knowledge with us. Knowledge is one of the most priceless gifts someone can give you. THANK YOU! 

Loved this challenge so much!

The mindfulness, visualization and affirmation exercises that were taught in the beginning were extremely helpful! Makes sense that we should begin with our mind and our heart. I initially thought the challenge would just be drills, technique and stamina but it had been so much more .

You’re one of the best teachers I’ve ever had! Love your positive vibes, meticulous instruction, and contagious energy. 

 Mauru’uru roa! 

Recently, I always felt sad when I dance. I didnʻ t know why, but I realize that after Day2.

I kept telling me like ‘’You are no good, rather awful, your moves are too small, too slow, unstable upper bodyʻʻ...etc just to push myself in a wrong way.

That was a strong curse which discourage me to enjoy dancing.

After listen to your advice, Iʻm trying to be nice to myself, just enjoy the challenge, and smile as much as I can.

Thank you again Jessy for telling me how to break my curse!

If thereʻs anyone feel the same, please go back to the class Day2 first week, and be nice to yourself! You are not alone.
