U.S. National Park Service

"Wendy Quan is a master at explaining the benefits of mindfulness and sharing practical techniques in a way that is very accessible and non-threatening to reach many different audiences. She offers helpful tips and dispels common myths that increase engagement and ultimately help people – even those who were initially skeptical – better manage stress and live healthier lives.

And her communication, responsiveness, and professionalism makes her wonderful to work with!"

~Gabrielle Fisher, Branch Manager, Wellness and Resilience Branch, U.S. National Park Service.

From attendees of a multi-class series:

"Wendy was fantastic! I found her relatable, funny, soothing and a great leader. Her engagement with the class was great. I've never taken a class where the instructor followed up with me via email for a comment I made in the chat. Very impressive. I would take any class Wendy is a part of!"

"Finding a great instructor like Wendy really makes it a legitimate class."
