Testimonials from trainees 

“Sometimes, the route of our spiritual journey is a mystery to us even when we think we are in the driving seat and making all the decisions. I found myself being led to the teacher training even though I had no conscious desire to do it! At the end of every Kundalini class and in my times of quiet reflecton I knew it was part of my route to deeper connection and Home and yet every time I dismissed the quiet, persistent voice. At last, I heard and listened and then acted.The training has been one of my most dramatically enriching processes, I have been challenged at every single weekend to look deeper into my life, my values, my spirituality and to know what it is to live and love and grow my soul connection. I have also had the pleasure of getting to know a most beautiful group of students.” Nicki
