Susan and Clare have put together a delicious, tantalizing taste of so many different aspects of yoga. It has inspired me to go on a learning adventure with so many exciting new avenues to discover. The teachers were supportive, enthusiastic and fun. Susan nurtured us and helped us to grow in so many ways. It is truly a life changing experience.
Debbie
I have wanted to enrol in a Yoga Teacher Training course for years and jumped at the chance to do it with Light Space Yoga. The program put together by Susan & Clare was incredibly comprehensive. The commitment to do the course was a huge one but the course structure kept me so engaged. I loved every minute. And I'm missing it now that we are done! The course teachers are amazingly qualified; the breadth of experience, knowledge and enthusiasm that the teaching team shared with us was incredible. Do yourself a favour and sign up, you won't regret it.
Nat
It was a spare of the moment decision for me to undertake Yoga Teacher Training with Susan and Clare, and to say I was a bit nervous would be an understatement! But I know now that it was the best decision I have ever made. I have been a practicing yogi for over 5 years now and this course seemed like the next natural step for me to take. I initially just wanted the challenge, to learn and to stay true to myself. But over these past 8 weeks I have connected so much with teaching yoga that I realise that I can now share my passion and love for yoga with other-liked minded people. So, if you want to be a Yoga Teacher, then I say, go for it, be a Yoga Teacher!
