What Students Are Saying

"Thank you very much! Our teacher explained yin yoga poses, philosophy, and how to be a teacher deeply. It was easy to follow and included all the necessary information. Asking my questions with messages helped me a lot. I wish all the Yin Classes were like topic six under the sequencing module, a full-length class with our teacher. His approach was based on anatomy rather than meridians. Namaste!"

"The course was very informative, many bonuses that other courses don't have. The teacher Ram is very thorough when he explains with a humorous twist sometimes. The team was always very helpful and quick to respond to my message, this was a great experience! I can strongly recommend taking this trainer class!"

"Video support for all classes felt as if I was there. Detailed written courses on all subjects seen during the classes. Quiz exercises after each chapter to evaluate our understanding and knowledge level. Explanations are very easy to understand for everyone. Their teaching method is simple and clear. I highly recommend this 50-hours Yin Yoga training."
