Using a poetic verse to describe his feelings for Virginia Newman's method of teaching Terje Stakset writes:

 

Virginia Hunt Newman was a Pioneer,

And She Made It Quite Clear, 

Non-Forceful is the Only Way, 

And in That Direction it Has to Stay, 

Be Gentle from the Very Start, 

If You're Going to be Smart.

"Gentle ways are best" - said WABC Founder Virginia Hunt Newman...and demonstrated wonderfully by Laurie Lawrence.
