My wife and I have been told many good things about your centre by two of our lady acquaintances who have just returned from a two week session with you. Now that we have also seen your web site we are encouraged to attend.
Kindly therefore advise us by return email the procedure for the same. We are both Canadians and would probably need visa etc for which we would also need invitation letters. Please confirm. Thanks.
Ragards.
