Dear Mary,

I just wanted to say how extraordinary my trip to Border was this summer and how much I appreciate you and Richard’s support and guidance. The experience of assisting on this group was great for me and taught me a lot about how to interact with students from a variety of backgrounds and cultures. I understand that the recent MeToo movement and the scandals in the yoga world significantly impacted many of us in serious ways, which for me personally, was not something I had completely understood until I was actually there. Regarding this, I wanted to let you know that I am open to your suggestions and thoughts on my approach to physical contact with students. I appreciate your efforts to protect myself and the other assistants from any potential repercussions of our actions.
