"I just want to thank Steve for his patience and for being a great instructor. I learned a lot. He gave me confidence about myself that I could do it. At first I did not believe this was for me and that I was only doing this for my husband, but now I love it. Again thanks to Steve for believing in me that I could do this, and I did it!"
