Here's what past graduates have to say about their journey through BWY Yoga teacher training with me. These are real stories from real people who've walked this path before you. They came with different goals and backgrounds, but each found something valuable to take away.
Please have a look at their experiences to get a feel for what this training is all about and what you might discover along your own yoga teaching path.
They did it, so can you!
" I just loved it. I just wish it would continue for another year. I felt like it really gave my life real purpose for a year."
"I'm going to start teaching for Age UK, which was not in my life plan, but has come about because of this course."
Malou discovered many light bulb moments throughout the course in terms of Yoga Asana and embraced that Yoga is for everyone! She now teaches a weekly class at her workplace which she started up during the course which she hopes to continue to build upon.
Asha had so many doubts about joining and was the last student to sign up! Thank goodness she did as she has such a gift for working within the community. She started up her very own chair Yoga class in her local community hall during the course. At the end of the course she was offered some work with Age UK offering accessible Yoga classes to local residence.

It has been a wonderful and awesome experience. It has been one of the best things I have done in a very long time. I have been able to challenge myself, it has given me confidence and it has been just an amazing opportunity. I am so glad that I did it! I am a single parent and I work full time. Hana was very good at being flexible and assisting me throughout the course and I am so glad I did! It was hard work but well worth the hard work. I highly recommend it.

“Its been an amazing time and I've learnt so much from it”
- Catherine Van Loo
I would highly recommend the course. Hana is really experienced and very knowledgeable teacher. What I found amazing was her ability to convey quite complex topics in a very accessible way. She created a very supportive and safe environment for everyone to learn. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to teach, but also if you want to really deepen your practice.

“I highly recommend this course. I am really glad that I did it with Hana.”
-Weng Yee
We covered so much including the practical aspects of becoming a teacher. Lots of helpful things that we don’t think of when becoming a teacher. Hana was a wonderful course tutor, she has so much knowledge to give. She has built herself up as a great Yoga teacher in London and getting to impart her experiences and knowledge to us was so helpful.
It was great to be amongst other Yoga lovers and people going through the same things together. It was wonderful to have these people to go through this journey together. It was a really supportive group and we all plan to stay in in touch.

I couldn’t recommend it more so go for it!
