Mandy and Sammy Jo share their experiences of a years teacher training course.
I came to teacher training at Yoga Space in Leeds as I wanted a teacher training course that pushed my boundaries, opened up my mind, a training course that challenged my way of thinking of what yoga is and what yoga isn’t, to strengthen my own personal yoga practice and also to steer me towards becoming a more knowledgeable and intuitive teacher, a training that has all of the teaching methodology and deep immersion into anatomy and physiology that would empower me to be able to deliver a strong, challenging and dynamic yoga class where students feel that they are in safe and experienced hands, a class where they feel inspired and want to learn more….what I can say is that both Nichi Green and Brian Cooper delivered exactly that.
During the course, my own personal practice has gone from strength to strength, my A&P knowledge has massively expanded, my mind has been opened and the friendships I have made, I suspect will be life long. This course allows you to grow individually but at the same time you have this immense group of people who support and nurture you. If you want to teach yoga and you want to teach it from a good, strong, well informed place, with integrity and you want take your time and let the knowledge grow as you grow, then this course is for you. I would not hesitate to recommend it!
I am now teaching in Manchester, at Virgin Active, Ashtanga Yoga Manchester and One Studio. I will be learning yoga my whole life long and this is part of the magic of yoga and teaching yoga for me, its an on-going path of training and learning!
