    My experience with the Myofascial Yoga Institute of Canada was extraordinary. The schedule was flexible so I could continue working on my Masters Thesis in Biology while pursuing my instructor training. Christine and the other teachers are so knowledgeable and approachable, which made learning that much more fun. My training through this program not only taught me how to manage a yoga class, but also how to deepen my own yoga teachings for myself.

    Being rather new to yoga I was extremely nervous to attend this teachers training but the training I received at the Myofascial Yoga Institute of Canada exceeded my expectations. The wisdom I gained from Christine Wushke and her peers, nourished a deeper and healthier understanding of yoga and the workings of our miraculous bodies. Through this training I was able to befriend my nervous system and experience a deep gratitude for everything that my body does for me. I found the training and environment very inclusive and trauma informed. It blended the perfect amount of lecture with experiential practises. On a personal level, I experienced healing that I’ve come to believe can only unfold in this type of space or environment. Christine is gifted at holding space for everyone no matter where they are on their yoga or healing journey. Her passion for fascia education and the recent science on this topic is contagious. I will be forever grateful for Christine, her gentleness, her curiosity and wonder, her unconditional love and her dedication as a student to life long learning. I can’t recommend her trainings enough.

    It has been honour to study with the Myofascial Yoga Institute. Learning from Christine and all the amazing guest instructors was wonderful, rich and deep! The sense of community and connection facilitated within the program was so supportive and helped students to explore and grow at their own pace. I loved the blend of ancient yogic wisdom with science-based literature and practices. The variety, quality, and quantity of learning resources provided was also exceptional. Christine's expertise, talent, and heart made the program experience extraordinary.

    The training and experience I received from Christine Wushke at Myofascial Yoga Institute of Canada was incredible. Her ability to convey and connect the concepts of the 8 limbs of yoga, our polyvagal system and the ways in which the practice of yoga allows us to become aware of and tap into our innate ability to self-regulate and reset and heal was amazing. So grateful to have had the opportunity to learn, explore, play and dance in the world of yoga and fascia with her and all the other wonderful souls who joined in the training. I feel more connected to my practice and also more aware of and able to share these concepts with others. Thankyou Christine! Pebbles in the pond... the power of little ripples :)

    The Myofascial Yoga Institute of Canada offers an amazing yoga teacher training program and I would highly recommend this to others. Christine Wushke is a wealth of knowledge, with years of both practice and experience and brings in experts from all over the world to support learning and practice. The program is so much more than a training, it is a deep self - study program.

    I absolutely loved this course and cannot wait to go on to take the 300hr program. The content is rich and varied and is taught with a wonderful balance of theory and experiential learning. The guest teachers are amazing and there is soooo many additional resources and options for further exploration and education offered. Highly recommend.

    I am so fortunate to have studied with Christine. Christine is truly unique in that she teaches yoga within a biotensegrity myofascial model and knows how to embody a trauma-informed approach. This world-class course exceeded my expectations by bringing a lot more to the table than your average yoga school. I highly recommend studying with Christine and her guest teachers.
