“I can’t begin to explain how incredible Siobhan and her Yoga Therapy TT has been for me. Siobhan is a fountain of knowledge. You feel her passion when she shares her knowledge and experiences which keeps you engaged and wanting to know more. Everything she shares is 100% factual and is backed by science. On a personal level I have benefited greatly. We delved into Aryuveda, the Kleshas, koshas, Doshas and all he systems in the body, which. has given me a real understanding of who I am, why I am the way I am which makes me look at myself through a kinder lens which In turn is how I now look at others which is very insightful and I feel is extremely important as a yoga teacher to have a better understanding of your students. We have learned and been given our own personalised scientific backed prescription of Kryas, pranayama, meditation, which is now my life changing daily practice. As a teacher that has previously done 2 x 200hrs yoga TT. I feel that the Yoga Therapy TT has given me a tremendously important insight and this training has changed my approach to teaching. Learning and practicing kryas pranayamas asanas meditations and chanting has had a huge impact on my wellbeing and Im so grateful to be able to share this with my students. I have huge respect for Siobhan and I am so grateful to have taken her Yoga Therapy TT

“I’m so grateful to have made the leap in 22/23 to have been a part in the 300 hr Yoga Therapy TT… Siobhan teaches with heart and soul. She approaches her teaching with enthusiasm and kindness.
Siobhan’s vast knowledge and love of yoga, pranayama and Ayurveda are passed easily from teacher to student because she draws you in with her love of this practice.. teaching how well we can live not just acceptably well, but to an optimal state of health by passing on the years of tried and tested techniques giving us opportunities to feel the health benefits for ourselves through plenty of practice followed by awareness and space for reflection.
I have gone on to teach yoga classes enriched with more than movement since enrolling, and my students as well as myself have benefited.
I would recommend taking this training if you are a yoga teacher wanting to further and enhance your studies..or anyone who is interested in their own health on a deeper level.
Profoundly grateful
