"This training has truly changed EVERYTHING for me. It's shifted how I look at myself and the things that go on in my mind. It's given me a confidence I never knew I had and it's made me feel seen and heard and loved TRULY for who I am for the first time in possibly my whole life. I feel strong, and connected on a level I never could have dreamed of. I came into this not knowing if I wanted to teach, it was a personal journey for me but it's because of the SUCCESS of the personal journey that I can't imagine any greater joy or honor than to share yoga with others. THANK YOU!" – Brownwyn

"This training liberated me! Through different ways, little by little I explored and released some constructive ways of thinking about what it means to be a spiritual teacher. Thank you for your patience as I (and my ego) tested and pushed against the boundaries. The following words are excerpted from the letter that you had us write to ourselves when we began training. On that morning of our last day of training, as I read the words I had written to myself I gasped in awe at the wisdom of myself. What a wonderful gift you have given me through this exercise. I thank you for that. I feel not so much changed by the experience but rather reminded of who I am." – Marcos
