FROM FOUNDATIONS of YOGA 2017
What I knew was going to be incredible was the first course to leave me speechless (it’s a feat….) I went to learn, and wow, learn we did, but it happened not only on a mind-information or even a practical level. It peeled me open with compassion and deep wisdom and gently guided the awareness in the direction of Home. This is the only place I’ve ever wanted to teach Yoga from, and my heart is crying happy tears in having found a teacher who is sharing the full story of Yoga. I don’t know what’s unfolding from here, but I feel grateful, and open to life, in total trust. The level of support, care and real sangha offered and nurtured in this space was unexpected and deeply nurturing. The combination of the teachings (in all their varied forms – the fleeting the most powerful), with cell-nourishing heart-warming food, enough space in the timetable for earth play, connection with each other, personal practice and rest, brought me home a very different person. I looked up at the mirror and saw a pair of deeply nourished bright eyes. Even my skin was new. Thank you for really teaching me to breathe, and showing me how possible it is to truly help every person who comes just by making space for open, careful observation and understanding. I am so excited for the next three years. Thank you. - Ally Goodwin, Foundation Participant Oct 2017

FROM POST GRADUATE DIPLOMA OF YOGA THERAPY (YTA) PARTICIPANTS AND GRADUATES
I have set up a consult space from home, and had my first real therapy student the other day, a HUGE step in the right direction, for me who was so nervous and afraid to get up in front of a group of people with out my heart leaping out of my chest only a few years back.
Thank you for bringing this to the world and for being so dedicated to making this available.

The results of any practice must be the final yard-stick by which it is judged; and since committing to this style of practice, I have to say that I have experienced profound improvements in my level of energy, a lessening of severity of my various symptoms of disease and injury, and a clearer state of mind. Others students on the course have reported dramatic improvements in their health, far beyond what has been experienced with other modalities of healing. The depth of understanding, and the genuineness and integrity of the teachers is beyond question.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in developing a deeper understanding of the ancient art and science of yoga, and who values the integrity of the classical knowledge that has been passed down to us throughout the centuries.

Dr NC is the world leader in yoga therapy so having access to him throughout the course and being able to learn from him directly is a rare honour. His capacity to communicate and engage people from many different yoga modalities is exceptional.
The group I studied with came from all over the country and each had a unique journey into yoga so the conversations were rich with shared experiences and a genuine desire to learn more.
If you’ve even had a passing thought about this course or your next leaning, please don’t waste time – Take some action. You will be delighted I am sure! Thank you Yoga Therapy Australia!

I am thrilled to be part of YTA and your future endeavors. A big namaste to Saras and Dr NC. I can’t express my gratitude enough with words; only through maintaining my practice and allowing the results to demonstrate the profound change that can be achieved when following an individual practice tailored to ones needs. Of course from an established practitioner and professional therapist.
