"I've got 'ESP' ": Women’s responses following a "TEASER" ESP class — part of the Woman Rising series of events
The ESP class was so much fun! I was a little apprehensive at first but after hearing about the dark room with just enough light, the small class size and having no mirrors that put me at ease. Vivian is an amazing teacher who makes everyone feel completely at ease during the session. I had more of a workout in ESP than I had in Martial Arts and Zumba. I cannot wait to go back ASAP.

The ESP Woman Rising Intro class was excellent. It's designed for you to feel safe while exploring your inner self and learning to express yourself in ways that some women may feel uncomfortable doing. Vivian, our instructor, was encouraging and provided us with tools that as a woman you can use to connect with your mind, body and spirit. I took Vivian's class with five other women in my family and not only was it a great bonding experience for us but it was a lot of fun to do together and a great work out as well. It's definitely something I’d like to continue with and I really encourage other women to step out of their comfort zone and try it.

I found that my sensuality is not about my husband. My sexuality is not determined by what I look like to others. I found with ESP that it is all within me, without an audience, without judgment, without any outside opinions. My sensuality is how I feel when I move for myself. It's a feeling, not a look, and I like that. Coreen Ward, Asbury Park, NJ — Pilates Instructor, former professional dancer
Vivian is an empowering instructor.....come out and pole dance....NOW!
ESP provides an outlet that is self expressive and liberating, while working my abs and arms....great fun, great laughs!!!

This class is for any woman who wants to get in shape and feel less inhibited about her body. A good part of what makes the class great is the teacher, Vivian. She knows the right thing to say at the right time to keep the class moving along. It's really impossible to describe all the reasons why she is such a great teacher - you need to come to one of the intro classes to see what she's all about. I guarantee you won't be disappointed!

ESP class was sexy, fun, a great workout, and made me feel more confident about who I am as a woman. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to have a good time. Thank you for an unbelievable time!

Vivian, I really enjoyed the class! I felt relaxed worked out and the same feeling as yoga gives me, personal sense of self. I was a bit scared that I would be intimidated but it was so easy and fun. Thanks!

The class is an inspiration for individuals to comfortably and safely get out of their own way and connect with themselves. Vivian's music selection and confident guidance are a perfect combination to slip into your inner self. Each class offers students the opportunity to open themselves up a little more to enjoy the freedom that only comes from within.

I took the class at TaoMassage and had a wonderful time. It was a very supportive
environment despite being not so slim and a very ungraceful dancer.
Roberta G., Ocean, NJ
It was definitely a new and exciting experience. Comfortable atmosphere.
Something everyone women should experience. It opens up a whole new spectrum
of expression and body movement.
