Yin Yoga Teacher Training
I had an amazing time. I feel truly inspired and also clearer on many aspects of what teacher and teacher I want to be. I’m very grateful for the experience.
I felt connected, listened to and valued for being here. I felt that the teachers had great knowledge and met my needs as a learner... Thought had gone into everyone’s learning style.
I cannot recommend this training highly enough. It has helped me on both on a personal and a professional basis.
A wonderful experience for teaching and on a personal level. The possibility of change within everyone is my biggest takeaway. Thank you for a beautiful 5 days.
An absolutely fantastic course – invaluable to both the teaching and practice of Yin. Norman is a brilliant teacher with a huge amount of empathy and knowledge.
“My 5 day course with Norman was the best training I’ve ever done. Norman and his team were all so amazing and inspiring. They are so enthusiastic to help and educate and unpretentious ... they made me feel comfortable to ask any questions. I felt so welcome. The content was amazing and I feel comfortable to start teaching Yin.”
Absolutely loved the course. It has totally revolutionised my teaching and my connection to my own feelings - not mention worked wonders for my lower back! Also great poetry!
Wonderfully interactive training, with a broad range of topics covered. Norman and his team are very informative and encourage inclusive practicing.
[Norman is} the most wonderful facilitator, space holder, inclusive educator and uplifting role model
This course exceeded my expectations in every way. The content was fantastic, delivering invaluable knowledge in a clear and well-paced manner. I particularly appreciated the variety of teaching styles employed by the instructors, which greatly enhanced my learning experience. The abundance of practical sessions provided ample opportunities for hands-on application of the concepts taught. Most significantly, the course triggered a complete mindset shift, opening my eyes to numerous new considerations in teaching. This transformative experience has not only expanded my knowledge but also revolutionised my approach to education.
