        Testimonials

        equal yoga

        "After spending hours looking for a teacher training online, when I found the one at Equal I immediately wanted to know more. What is really different is the multiple teachers part of this training, they all have their own in-depth knowledge on different subjects from anatomy to philosophy, a great mix once you combine them all together and a good way to have a wider view of what is yoga. 

        The training is intense and demanding but the learning pace is well spread and gives you time to reflect on the content and practice. Some modules like how to use your voice (and take care of it!) are a great bonus. Still referring to by notes from time to time to build up my sequences or check on cues and also reaching out to my teachers and my co-training yogi friends, a great support group when you start teaching!"

The training gave me a strong foundation as a teacher by providing me with the in-depth knowledge and tools needed to teach vinyasa yoga. Each component brought something unique and valuable to the training, supporting me as a teacher today and allowing me to teach energizing and safe vinyasa classes.

        "I was part of the first group of students to follow Equal’s 200hrs Vinyasa teacher training, which proved to be a very high-quality training. The teachers are experienced, approachable and involved. After my graduation I felt confident to start teaching straight away. If you are looking for a training with personal attention, obtaining a strong anatomical foundation, and hands-on teaching skills, I highly recommend taking this training with Equal yoga!"

        When I thought to join the 200 hours Vinyasa TT at Equal, I was not expecting that this experience would have completely changed my life. I feel so lucky because I have had the chance to learn and work closely to the best and most prepared teachers. I loved to see different approaches and perspectives from very experienced teachers coming from different backgrounds. That’s what stimulate a student to learn more, cultivate his/her passion and to dive deeply into different topics. I highly recommend Equal TT to anyone who wants to start a beautiful personal journey and discover a whole new world, not only related to the practice and philosophy of yoga and meditation, but a different way to approach life.

        I joined this TT first for deepening my physical yoga practice (and teaching) but it also gave me understanding of yoga practice but also on myself : an access to a new tool box to approach life from a different view point :-)

        Equal’s 200-hrs Teacher Training gives you a deep dive into the world of Yoga. Whether you have previous knowledge or not, you are challenged to engage with different topics ranging from yoga philosophy to anatomy. The great guidance from all the teachers makes the journey interesting and fun. I love the energy from not just the teachers on the training but by the whole Equal team, making you feel welcome and supported, throughout the training. My time with Equal has been an invaluable experience and spurred my interest for yoga even more.
