Testimonials
“The facility of Casa Om was comfortable, clean and accommodating. The pool was a nice size for cooling off and even some water aerobics. I particularly enjoyed the food prepared by an excellent chef using organic ingredients with a vegetarian menu. Everything they prepared was outstanding. I never went hungry or thirsty. The other nice thing I took advantage of were several of the excellent workshop offerings that melded into the yoga retreat curriculum.”
“Janet and Don as co-hosts were gracious, knowledgeable, and helpful. I really liked the special sessions Don provided about core and anatomy of the core. I learned lots that I have applied to my routine since returning home. As a yoga teacher, Janet is one of my all time favorites. Janet’s style is to challenge, teach but still be fun. Her humor is dry and low key. I remember instructions I learned from Janet four years ago.”
“I have special needs having MS. Mobility is fine but I need a hand when walking in rough terrain. The yoga group was very embracing and accepting of helping whenever needed. After I finally got up nerve to go on one of the excursions, I had plenty of people lagging back to help me as needed. Don made sure I felt safe going into the pool in the cave which was great fun. I wouldn’t have gone in at all had he not helped me get in, get out and move around while in the pool. It made for a memorable experience.” - Judy Groff
“Casa Om is a wonderful place for embracing peace and relaxation. Dr. Miller's expertise is widly acclaimed...he gives strong support to the participants with medical evaluations and medical treatment if needed. It was a wonderful time.” - Millie Holbrook
