I ended up healing my heart, soul and inner child in ways I would have never expected. Sara was a fountain of knowledge and incredibly inspiring. This weekend will be forever held close to my heart. A massive transformational experience and a new passion unfolded. Id recommend this training to anyone!” ~ Gabby

     

    “SO many things I want to share about this magical training.  I feel like it ignited/unlocked a new level of passion for me as a Yoga Teacher and as a Parent. It was the healing my inner child needed and the knowledge I didn’t know I needed in terms of teaching yoga to others. I think it’s incredibly important for this knowledge we learnt this weekend to be shared to all the little hearts out there! Sara simply is an amazing caring thoughtful passionate teacher and I am grateful she created this training!” ~ Samantha
