The pain cream is beyond miraculous. I have been following the herbal creations that Donna has made for 30 years and the products are above anything else on the market. The classes are fun for all.

I have been going to The Studios for over 6 years now, I started with a soap class and all of the herobilism classes and proceeded to do full product line creations with my husband for our bath and body businesses!I have loved every minute of working with Donna, the products we created in our 1 on 1 product creations came out beautifully and the recipes are unique and we get clients raving about them! I can not thank Donna enough for helping us set up our products and getting us started! So many cool things coming out of The Studios but the knowledge and kindness is the best thing ever!

Where do I start with the clinical and naturopath class, the class is all about getting to know your true self and fulfilling the needs of those who will rely on you and your expertise in the future.Learning to following my first mind (instincts) has been eye opening, it has allowed me to get in touch with my inner being most pressing questions.I’ll be honest, for the first few classes I felt confused, intimidated, & flustered because of the information that was being delivered & I felt like I had to understand what was being said. I was overwhelmed coming in after the class had started but I was assured that I can finish the class where I began which took a lot of pressure off.Long story short, is to take your time and learn and always always ask questions. The instructor and classmates will go the extra mile to help you and make sure you understand what’s going on. Do be intimidated because you are only stopping your progress. Well worth it!Thank you Mrs. Donna & The Studios at Florida School of Holistic Health!

I signed up for the Clinical Naturopathic Practioner course. The course, for starters, is overpriced, and the owner would not give me a pro-rated refund when I decided to drop it after after 4 weeks, with almost 5 months still left in the course.Initially, the hours were Saturday from 3-6pm, but she decided to change them to Sunday 3-6pm.After teaching other classes all week, come Sunday, Donna always seemed tired and usually dismissed the class early. The class never lasted the full three hours. She said if there were more students (3), class would last longer.The first four weeks, we spent entirely too much time on light therapy. Most of the information we learned was from Google or other websites, in which she would print the learning material. There was no intellectual property given to us, a handful of papers printed from another website. It was a complete waste of time and money. I bought the required book, which was $100 and she never once taught from the book. What's worse is she doesn't even live the life of a Naturopath. Last Sunday, the class was canceled. As I was 3 minutes away, I received a text from my classmate. The teacher didnt even contact me to let me know class was canceled... More of my time wasted. I text her and told her I wanted to talk, but she never called and eventually stopped texting/replying to my concerns.She has no official policy listed anywhere regarding refunds, although students in her other class were able to make payments on their classes. The "course" is taught in a store and is very messy and unorganized. I was never offered a tour because theres only one room in the whole store aside from the bathroom. I would not recommend this "business" to anyone, and will be reporting it to the Better Business Bureau. Donna likes to preach love and light, but she's just an opportunist. Save your money and go to an accredited college or university, even a self-paced online class would be better and less costly.

After affirming my affinity for herbal healing by completing the Master Herbalist course at FSHH, I decided to continue increasing my knowledge by enrolling in the Naturopathic Practitioners course. I am six weeks in and it proves to be an enlightening journey. Throughout the 6 weeks, the class has learned the fundamental tools of color therapy, how to create and package homeopathic pastilles, and Donna introduced us to the wide world of muscle testing. This course goes way beyond treating clients with herbs. It delves into several new and interesting naturopathic modalities, so if herbs are your thing and you want to stay there, this course may not be for you. Donna keeps the class engaged with an ease that would only come from her years of experience. She gives us a push in the right direction, but then lets us use our learning to "do the work" for ourselves. Donna is incredibly knowledgeable and I enjoy her skillful teaching methods. I look forward to seeing what each new week brings.

Donna is INCREDIBLE. She gives individualized attention in her classes and is all around a super cool person (like the cool aunt you want to hang out with). Her work is MAGICAL. She is extremely generous of her time and energies and everyone should know about her and she should be famous but she doesn’t prefer it so I’ll just leave this review here.

I usually do not do these, but I felt compelled to this time. I booked a soap making class because I was bored. The owner and staff was extremely nice and made me feel very comfortable. The breadth and depth of her knowledge was impressive. She was very patient and thorough in explaining everystep. I would definitely recommend.

The owner and staff are super helpful and knowledgeable. They don't mind assisting you formulate products. They offer classes and certifications as well! The classes are fun and educational.If you're looking for a place that specializes in product development then you should stop by and ask about the services they offer.
