Thank you so much for such an intense, inspiring, and genuinely memorable week. I wanted to write and say how grateful I am for the way you taught the course.
Your patience, especially when we asked you to go over things time and again, was remarkable, and you did it every time with the same passion, clarity, and enthusiasm. That’s a rare thing, and I know I speak for the rest of the group in saying how much we appreciated it.
It was an intense week, but it went by incredibly quickly, which says everything about the atmosphere you created. The warmth, encouragement, and camaraderie made a real difference, and thank you for including me. It meant a great deal.
And thanks to all my classmates for their company, encouragement, and the brilliant atmosphere all week. There were a few mental blanks along the way and you were all so supportive. What a lovely bunch, and I hope we meet again.
You’re absolutely right. I’m very proud to be part of the Reginasailing family now. Hope to see you all out on the high seas.
