• I love how interactive and engaging it was. Lots of time for discussion. Relevant and useful content and the delivery of the content was engaging. The day flew by!

    - Adrienne M.

  • I enjoyed every moment. As soon as I walked in, the atmosphere, little decorative touches to the tables, materials provided, slides, media embedded in the presentation, music, pacing, texts, etc., all combined to make the training a powerful experience. I am confident that my MHFA training will aid me in being intentional and effective when supporting my students and their mental health needs.

    - Elizabeth B.

  • This school year was definitely one for the books. The opportunity to get valuable assistance with how to talk with our students about some of the issues that plague their lives is one that shows I work in a district that cares.

    - Melva M.

  • Every aspect of the training was beneficial and well needed during these perilous times. Also, I learned to turn negative stigmas into positive truths, without highlighting the illness but give the individual more attention than his/her mental health challenges.

    - Fonda M.

  • Rachael's professionalism and caring communication were clearly visible. We always want useful PD and the information you and your collaborator provided was very helpful and your ability to turn misconceptions into learning opportunities was outstanding.

  • The information presented was well delivered, insightful, and useful for my work. Mrs. Santos' presentation should be incorporated as a mandatory PD for all staff, administration, support staff, clerical, security, board members .

  • This class is absolute magic! Training for a triathlon isn't easy so this is the perfect rest day class. Rachael is incredibly knowledgeable and a brilliant leader. She offers multiple levels of difficulty, making the class accessible to almost any level needed. The stretch is amazing and it's a great way to help ward off the Sunday Scaries.

    Amanda O.

  • My biggest takeaway was that Rachael is a fabulous facilitator; she led us through heavy, difficult material with perspective and deep background knowledge. She used humor when appropriate and kept a long day energized and moving forward.

    -Carrie C.

  • I absolutely loved the practicality of the training and the amazing resources that were shared with this training. I feel that I am definitely more equipped to deal with student mental health issues than before.

    -Kelly G

  • Rachael Santos did a wonderful job leading us through our Hatha Flow. It was mindful for body and spirit. Through the stretches and flows my body relaxed further. I was so at peace and was able to do the majority of the class with my eyes closed. My body, mind and breath were one vessel.
