TESTIMONIALS
"I’VE LEARNED A LOT OF VALUABLE THINGS FROM THIS RESOURCE; FIRST AND FOREMOST, THAT THERE IS NOTHING FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG WITH ME THAT I NEED TO CONQUER OR OVERCOME TO FIND A BETTER LIFE. THAT I CAN USE YOGA TO OPEN TO, PARTICIPATE AND IMMERSE MYSELF IN MY OWN EXPERIENCE AS IT IS. EVEN IF IT IS PAINFUL."
— JAN STEFAN KACZMAREK
"THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME AND ENERGY, FORETHOUGHT AND CARING TO DEVELOP AND RECORD THIS PROGRAM. IT IS INVALUABLE! EVEN THOUGH I’VE COMPLETED THE TEACHER TRAINING ALREADY, HEARING THEM IN THIS FORMAT WAS SO INSTRUCTIVE AND I LEARNED MANY NEW DETAILS THAT WERE VERY RELEVANT."

"I've been practicing yoga for 6 years, and am starting my 4th year of teaching. I began yoga at 55, as an outgrowth of interest in meditation and desire to be more positive in my life. I was also seeing the tightening up of an office-worker body as it aged, and thought if I don't do something about it, it will just get worse. I teach a variety of classes, and teach a lot of beginners. There are several teachers who have been important to me in various ways. Mark has been the most impactful, because he is so clear about the proper teacher-student relationship and the toxicity of guru culture that denies the reality of life and sets people on a fruitless path of seeking."

“Whenever I watch any of Mark’s videos, I learn something new or something “jumps out” at me. I access a deeper understanding of concepts that I have heard Mark speak of before, but maybe didn’t fully understand the first (or even the second) time that I heard it. I expected that to happen with these online teacher training videos as well and was definitely not disappointed.”
““MARK’S TEACHING HAS HAD A PROFOUND IMPACT ON ME. AND HAS CAUSED SUCH A SHIFT AND A REAL DEEP SENSE OF RELIEF.””
"I have been taught over and over again that the breath is paramount to our practice. I wouldn’t say, however, that the teaching has resonated with me. Mark’s description here is saying the same thing, but it strikes me in a different way, as if shaking me and screaming: “Pay attention!” As one who could be referred to as a loner, this passage caused me pause and the reflection: 'That explains a lot.' Until now, I haven’t had the strength to receive."
