Testimonials from workshop participants
"My experience at the Tuscan Renaissance Center was a life-changing event. In the safe, supportive setting of the beauty of the Tuscan monastery of San Fedele I was able to rejuvenate my inner strength and touch, explore and nurture my soul. It was a personal Renaissance for me....and everyone contributed to my incredible experience."

"San Fedele and my Il Chiostro experience of "Getting Out of Your Head" lovingly provided a safe and caring environment for me to take a good look into a mirror, tap in to my soul and set free a well-spring of energy, joy and creativity."
(CK, 2010 workshop participant)
"As we approached San Fedele I just knew in my heart that I had arrived at a very, very special place indeed. Its peaceful beauty literally brought tears to my eyes -- and the magic was ever-present throughout our stay. The experience I had at the Tuscan Renaissance Center came from a wonderful combination of the serenity of the surroundings, the generous Tuscan hospitality of our hosts and the creative and joyful spirit of the people I met in the workshops. I will remember and treasure my experience there forever."

"The deep, resounding gong of the monastery bells,
A singular voice singing the music of the heart at dusk.
The clink of glasses toasting together…"

Tocato Tutti!
(JL, 2010 workshop participant)
“… the workshop really set the tone for a very thoughtful, restful, and fun two weeks in Italy. Before leaving, I don't think I realized how much I had needed the trip!! But I came home feeling totally refreshed and re-calibrated, having had a chance to take a step back and look at how I've been spending my time energy. And, I'm happy to say, that I've already begun implementing a lot of the ideas I wrote down in my journal while at Il Choistro... It's great!! … And, thank YOU so much for your time and amazing energy and effort and thoughtfulness. It was apparent that you both invested a lot of yourselves into our workshop, and it truly was a wonderful and affirming experience.”
"The experience at Il Chiostro was beyond meaningful to me. It was worth every moment and it was an extremely rich experience for me. I would recommend it to anyone and am so grateful to have had this opportunity."
“I have gotten out of touch with whatever it is I really want because of the layers of doing what I should or what is expected.
I had expected the week to be a week of learning "how to"--do art or do it
better, learn to write or be a better writer, improve my yoga skills, learn
dancing again … I thought I would discover what I was good at and be taught to become better at it. I was totally linear and analytic about this…
BUT--somehow, I got in the moment. I went with your program. I danced with a scarf even though it felt weirder than you can imagine … "
"My analytical skills have served me well in my life for almost 50 years, but I have known more recently that I have lost a lot in that process. It came back out of nowhere, and it came back because of your workshop in Tuscany…”
