Feedback"I've been doing Yoga for some years and had some apprehension about doing Astanga, but you made it easy for us to learn what we needed to learn. You gave me the confidence to build on what I already knew and to take my practice much further than I would have previously thought possible. I'll be back next year for more of the same!" (student 6 yrs experience) "Yoga in this Indian setting was a real delight, a journey of discovery for me. The instruction was superb and very inspiring, I felt challenged, trusting and gradually grew more confident as the days passed. I loved the whole experience, very grateful for the chance to explore so many new dimensions in such a different culture. The boat trip was an absolute joy and gave the time and space for the stirrings from Yoga to be released. Thank you for being our guide for so much inspirational change." (student, new to Yoga) We cannot discover new oceans until we have courage to lose sight of the shore..... "What I really appreciated was the adaptable and flexible approach that you showed to the classes. You seemed to be very sensitive to the needs, experience, energy and requirements of the group. As someone who hit a major energy slump halfway through the course I really appreciated this approach. I felt comfortable in defining my own practice and had the support to deal with the challenge to my ego of not being able to fulfil my own expectations. This proved to be a revelatory learning experience for me and I felt very strongly that I learnt some significant and powerful lessons. " (student 5 yrs)
"Kerala was enchanting. I loved interacting with the locals and watching the world go by after Yoga or massage. Astanga Yoga was a revelation for me! I am beginning to get a sense of fluidity rather than rigidity. Your very clear instructions contained simple but transforming concepts. I found the sequences fantastic for strength, stamina, centering and awareness. The classes were so well balanced - you cater amazingly well for such mixed abilities." (Iyengar student-25 yrs practice) "I'll be returning home well toned, rejuvenated, and changed, with more insight, clarity and strength. The Yoga room was such a beautiful space for us. This was a Yoga holiday to reflect upon for the rest of my days. I feel well and truly blessed to have you as my teacher Jane. I learn such a lot from seeing you work with such ease with the different abilities within the group. I loved the blue, blue seas, my early morning swims, and meeting local people. The massage was exceptional, a real beacon of healing energy." (masseur, 3 yrs Yoga) Put your life into a chalice....., and pour it out to the world "The holiday was a wonderful mix of security and adventure. The hotel has been a home from home; our little haven of peace in the midst of the hustle and bustle of India. The Yoga space is so beautiful, and I feel I have deeply consolidated my practice, and regained direction and motivation, both in Yoga and in my personal life. The massages have been tip-top, really skilled, sensitive, intuitive, respectful, amazing and wonderful!" (Yoga teacher 7 yrs experience) "Your approach is far more relevant to my state of health and energy - my breath is far more integrated with my practice, my Bandhas are stronger and more consistent. I have also found that I have begun to bring a deeper more attuned awareness to the practice - the whole has become a more sacred experience for me. This has really helped in establishing a stronger home practice - I bring a sacredness to the practice - it is more focused. The retreat was key to achieving all this - I feel that I have made a huge leap in my Yoga practice - not what I was expecting but fabulous all the same." (student 5yrs) "I thought the boat trip sounded a bit dull - but it turned out to be the most amazing experience - I have never known such peace -I'm sure I've saved myself hundreds of £s in therapy! You have been a great teacher, facilitator and group leader - thank you - I'll be back." (Yoga teacher) Place yourself in the middle of the stream of power
and wisdom
"Sigh .early swim to the rising sun, then Yoga, breakfast, sunbathing, massage, shopping, eating, drinking, meeting and making local friends, more Yoga so much to do.. so much to take in not enough time. Thank you for the inspired, insightful teaching." (student, 8-mths experience) "The boat trip was fabulous - I loved seeing the Indian lifestyle as we drifted past. The birds were fabulous. It was just a perfect, relaxing weekend to help us lose any stray tensions we arrived with. I can't thank you enough for this whole life-enhancing experience" (Iyengar student) "I wasn't very interested in the philosophy before now, but you made me see how what we learn through Yoga can have a major effect on all other areas of our lives. I've never worked so hard - or relaxed so deeply - thank you for showing me how to relax!" (student, 2 yrs) "I feel so lucky to have found this Yoga course. I've learnt so much in such a short time, I can hardly believe how much was conveyed to us all in such simple language. I wish you lived near me back home!! (student, little experience) What, after all, is Life? It is the flash of a firefly
