    It was amazing training. It was not just a teacher and student, I felt a more strong connection with all the people there. The teachers were very supportive and relaxed. I could take the course without any stress. The facilities and food were perfect. Through the training, They cover yoga practice, teaching methods, philosophy and anatomy. I learned so many things and it helped me to grow, find peace inside me and gave me confidence. Thank you so much, Joleen and Steve.

    Love Steve and Joleen. Incredible teachers who truly want to make a memorable experience for their students as well as try their hardest to ensure teachers are prepared for post certification. Would recommend them to anyone.

    Steve and Joleen are excellent teachers and have curated an excellent course that really teaches its students how to become teachers. I would highly recommend their course to anybody interested in pursuing and furthering their knowledge on all things yoga.

    The experience of full immersion is definitely recommended as it challenges you in more ways than one. You have the opportunity to witness yourself react to being taken out of your daily normal life and live and share with complete strangers for 3 weeks. Its full on, and wonderful. You will leave not only with a training certification, but with a new 'family' for life. I highly recommend this course with Steve and Jolleen and their little one Zacc :)

    We feel such gratitude for the students that choose our training. We are so blessed to share our practices, knowledge, lives and family with the students that come into the immersion environment for 3 weeks. I agree with Heidi, it is a challenge. Not just the extra practices and learning, but the personalities and life experiences of the group that are always an unknown. But we have many tools to share and draw from ... Ahimsa and Svadyaya to name two. And luckily for us the beauty and serenity of Taupo and a gorgeous home to all live together in.

    I could write a novel about this, but I think actions speaks louder than words. Jolene & Steve know how grateful I am for this journey. We still in touch, looking forward to visit them in their hometown. With love and kindness , Thalia

    This YTT was a rich, fully embodied and deeply human experience. I learnt so much and graduated feeling empowered, energized and confident in my abilities as a yoga instructor. Steve and Joleen are amazing people with incredible skill, knowledge and generosity. I wholeheartedly recommend this YTT to anyone looking to take the next step on their yoga journey.
