Testimonials from our previous Trainees

Marina S:

Cami and Tarryn's Yoga for Kids Course was brilliant on so many levels. Stepping onto the mat with the little ones showed me my love for teaching again and that going deeper down my Yoga journey with children is definitely the right direction.The chapters, quizzes and assignments are thought through well and being able to do this course at my own pace is absolutely amazing. I recommend this course for every teacher, yogi or teacher/yogi to be! :)
