Testimonials

"I'm a volunteer here at the Beth Wright center. I teach weekly yoga classes and breathing and relaxation classes. I love being at the Beth Wright center. I find that my students, many of whom are still undergoing chemotherapy or have completed chemotherapy, are among the nicest, warmest people I know. They are enthusiastic about life, they try many new things, they are warm, they are supportive of each other, and they are supportive of other people, helping others in the community."
