WHAT OUR STUDENTs SAY

Taking the 100hr Advanced Sequencing and Adjusting with Michelle was a heartfelt choice for me. I wanted to learn more about different ways of creating yoga sequences for my own practice and for my long time practitioners. Also, to build my skill further with adjustments to be able to serve my students better.

This course was the perfect next step after my initial teacher training. It’s almost an easy decision to make as it blends and builds up strategically from the 200 hour teacher training. It offered deeper insights into advanced techniques and how to adjust classes to meet everyone’s needs. Aiming to craft sequences that not only challenge the body but also nourish the mind and soul.

Michelle taught us a lot about putting together advanced yoga sequences, the right way to help students adjust their poses, and understanding the body in yoga. She made sure we knew how to include everyone, no matter their level. As Michelles’s courses are, it’s a mixed learning from the book and with a whole ton of real practice, which meant we got to try out what we were learning straight away!

The essence of Michelle’s teaching style is deeply interactive and profoundly nurturing. With her guidance, learning the art of adjustments not just as a technique but as a form of communication between teacher and student. This experience was transformative, teaching me the language of touch in a way that respects and honours the individual journey of each student.

Thanks to Michelle, I now feel more confident in planning complex yoga classes that are safe and effective for everyone. I’ve learned so much about the body and how to make yoga a positive experience for each student.

I highly recommend this course to any yoga teacher who wants to explore more into their practice and to build up that extra skill and confidence in teaching. Michelle’s course stands out because of how hands on it is and the depth of knowledge she so openly shares. It’s made a big difference in how I teach!

Michelle’s dedication to creating a space that celebrates everyone in their journey is second to none! She’ll be with you along the way. You’re on the right path.
