TESTIMONIALS

Don’t take our word for it, discover what our graduates have to say…

“It is amazing how much we all achieved in such a short period of time, walking in as yoga students of various levels and walking out as teachers, ready to take our individual yoga journeys forward. This of course wouldn’t have happened without the support and encouragement of our teachers at BodyMindLife and the hard work that went into designing and executing this course.”
– Nathalie S

“I know everyone says this, but it was life-changing. The course was intense, challenging and hard at times for sure, but I loved every bit of it. It opened my eyes to the practice in a way I never expected. It gave me an entirely new found appreciation for the incredible teachers and facilitators, and the group of people who go on the journey with you really do feel like family. It’s a very special experience.” – Laura P

“Teacher training pushed my boundaries for sure, but I was never made to do anything I really didn’t want to do. Know that if something makes you uncomfortable, you can observe and take notes rather than participate. In that same vein, expect to learn things about yourself that you never knew. You’ll surprise yourself with your strength and courage…”
– Sally O
