A Letter from Our Founder

I would like to express my gratitude to those drawn to DoveStar. We honor your choice and offer our programs out of respect for your needs. DoveStar has developed over the years through input from students. My appreciation is extended to all past and current incoming students for being involved in this process. Due to expanded locations, I no longer have the personal contact with all who come to DoveStar. To properly assess the continuation of the standards I have set for the school, we request honesty from all who pass through our doors so we may all continue to grow and change.

DoveStar has an environment that allows and respects people's right to be different. We ask the same from you. Please allow the staff and instructors to be themselves. Personal processing and change are an underlying innate function of DoveStar. This involves not only students but the staff as well. We are not always on our best behavior, but we are always the best we can be for that moment.

Our instructors are trained to facilitate the ability to change and heal. They are not superior to anyone, nor do they desire to be. Our ability to maintain equality with each other is our value to the universe as a whole. We each have a unique responsibility that demands that we respect and fulfill our responsibility to ourselves, in order to know ourselves and then to stand in our truth in all our relationships.

If anyone does not understand DoveStar's policies, or has a request or a concern, there is a procedure for addressing these issues. We are always in the process of training new people, as instructors or office staff, because of the school's growth. If you feel that you get answers that are not consistent, please feel free to contact the Director personally or a member of the DoveStar Board of Directors. Out of respect for their schedules, please make an appointment to discuss your concerns.

With an ongoing respect for change, which is mandatory for growth to occur, I ask for compassion and tolerance for all our differences as we evolve through daily processing of life.

You are all in my prayers with unconditional love and light.
