Best course I have ever done in my life.
Lilli, Berkshire

The journey the course takes you on is stimulating and highly motivational and is more than a ‘yoga teaching course’. I left every weekend feeling refreshed, energised and excited about my new career as a Yoga Teacher. If you are serious about your own personal development and abilities as a yoga teacher THIS IS the course.
Sara, Surrey

I completed the Chi Yoga School training course in August 2006 and what a wonderful, stimulating, enlightening year it was! The course is so well balanced, preparing you to teach on all levels, spiritually as well as practically. The support from course tutors and ex-students is fantastic and ongoing. The emphasis on developing your own potential and practice in an informed and encouraging environment with excellent tutors and internationally-renowned teachers, makes this course something special. I was so grateful to have had the opportunity to complete it and I loved every minute!

Kenny, Glasgow

This course is without doubt, inspirational. All its tutors possess considerable experience and knowledge and work from a very high level of personal practice. They teach with sincerity, integrity and humility and yet with a great sense of fun and joy. It has brought me to a new level and a deeper understanding of my own yoga practice – and it has given me the confidence to teach – with awareness that we are both body and spirit.
