Good afternoon. I wanted to take a moment today to personally thank you for the opportunity The Gorilla Grant I was awarded provided me. I completed my SAMP100 practical this past Saturday with a 97! You have an excellent team in Sandy, Lori, Jaime and Rubi. Each one of them helped me get to where I am today. I’m so excited about my future and the great things that I can do for the small animals in my community! I hope to honor your Gorilla and my Peatie with every special soul I come in contact with. Thanks again for everything! Margaret Taormina, CSAMP

Lola! I just wanted to…say with the most sincerest of love and gratitude “Thank you!” from the bottom of my heart. 9 years ago I chose massage school over nursing school. That first session at NWSAM…set me on the journey of my life! That first session of school opened up my world in more ways than I could ever explain. Today I was asked to speak at a clinic in Woodland. People want to hear what I have to say!!! Everyday I get to work on a horse it feeds my soul like no other. I am definitely doing what I am meant to do. For that….. I thank you! Your little school literally changed my life! I am forever indebted to you, Megan and NWSAM!!!!!!

I can honestly say that taking the course was one of the best experiences of my life! I was nervous when the week long practical came around, but I would do it again in a heartbeat! The work was challenging, but so fun! The hardest part was not leaving the animal shelter with a new companion!!!

I love the hands-on work. Really enjoyed the guest speakers and exposure to different modalities. Liked the morning meditations.
