Shana Banana,
I was the one that did your yoga DVD today. I loved the yoga. My favorite one was the warrior because I performed it in my yoga class. So thank you that you taught me all of these songs. I remember one song. It is called "I love love". I can sing it to you. I listened to that funny song called positive words. Why do you teach yoga?" Your yogi, Kayla (5 years old)
