Introduce Yourself: Bonnie Schneider-Priever
What's Your Story?
Hi, I'm Bonnie Schneider-Priever. I have been a member of Temple Isaiah since my son, Saul, was 5. He is now 28 and my love and joy. Together we have faced and overcome many emotional challenges, such as losing his dad (my ex-husband) four years ago. Two years ago, I joined ChaiVillageLA after being invited as a guest to the Seder. What a lively, energetic, upbeat cohesive group.

"I had never done Yoga and I found the class to be very beneficial...I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to move their body and get some exercise. The instructor, Tim, is terrific." - Terry Pullan
