Prenatal Yoga and Postnatal Yoga Teacher Trainings Reviews
|
"I am a graduate from the Postnatal Yoga Teacher Training in June 2017. I thought the course provided me with comprehensive knowledge to know what postures are beneficial for new moms. The training enabled me to become more aware of how the body changes physically through the sessions we had with Dr. Aliya Visram and Lamiya Zaidi. I found their sessions so informative!"
The individual photoshoot is one of a kind but adds an extra oomph to the service for sure. The people are nice and customer service is excellent The invited speakers are professionals and valuable to the course." ~ Aileen Baylon "A heartfelt thank you to @jamiekalynuik and all of the @torontoyogamamas humans for making the Prenatal YTT happen so beautifully. You provided such a rich, empowering experience and I now feel confidant enough to go out and teach all of the strong, amazing pregnant mamas of the world." ~ Aimee Pudifin "It provided actual yoga sessions with mamas and babies so it's not just textbook learning.The place is wonderful and the refreshments are an added bonus" |
I appreciated that we were able to practice and deliver a class routine which allowed me to become more comfortable with instructing a class. I really enjoyed the training. It was well- planned, carefully incorporating many aspects from meeting moms who participate in yoga classes at the studio to teaching a collaborative class. I had a wonderful experience and would recommend this training to anyone looking to gain experience in Postnatal Yoga!" ~ Incia Zaffar
"I’m back in The Peg from an incredible Prenatal Yoga Training with @torontoyogamamas . I’ve learned so much this past weekend and I’m feeling all sorts of gratitude. @torontoyogamamas studio is not only gorgeous but the community it creates and all their offerings for women’s health and wellness is amazing. This calm, beautiful, inclusive space supports mamas, soon to be mamas, anyone who identifies as a mother and supports them at any and all stages of their mothering journey. @jamiekalynuik @northstar_ravenThank you for such an informative, hands-on, well structured teacher training. You held the space for us to absorb all and I was able to mother myself through the process." ~ Felecia (@rise_and_shine_kids) |
