List of testimonials collected after students completed the teacher training.
I went to training with the goals of improving my personal practice and being able to teach a few classes a week. Now, all I want to do is teach! I had a wonderful experience that I will forever remember. Thanks again for everything. Still lost for words. still… Words are simply too small to express my gratitude, so I will write Thank You, but you should know it is as vast as the universe.
Dear Fred,
The teacher training was transformative and so much therapeutic for me. I just wanted to thank you again for sharing so much of yourself, teaching from your heart and thank you for making a difference in my life. I don’t like to label myself as an introvert, but i can be sometimes;-) I did not interact with you as much as I wanted but I appreciate your words in helping me find the path towards my own inner “guru” and navigating thru life in a more peaceful way. The training provided me with the skills to sit confidently and authentically in the seat of the teacher ….with a little practice first I will keep doing my Karma yoga at the studio, talked to Megan, so I will definitely keep in touch.
A follow up on that testimonial about The Lower Back Bible:
Hi Fred, I have to say your book has helped me immensely! And yes I got back on my bicycle. I’ve been challenged with disability for most of my life (had a stroke at 5yrs old) but I’d been able to enjoy an active life in spite of it, until the last few years. Because of walking difficulties and generally bad posture my lower back pain begun to take over. Nothing else I’d tried had really worked and by Christmas I was hunched over using a walking stick. I found your book searching the internet one very painful sleepless night. I was amazed that I could perform the positions without making my pain worse and in doing so noticed I was improving with each day. Your Yoga has made me stronger and realigned my body. I accept that I may still aggravate my back doing day to day tasks and because of the way I walk, but I know that these wonderful positions will straighten me out at the end of the day. I’m still practising Sequence 1 and for now feel it’s enough. When I explained your methods to my physiotherapist she agreed I should continue with it and couldn’t suggest anything better.
Thank you for taking the time to write the book.”
Hi Fred
I just wanted to say that what you wrote a few weeks ago about yoga helping to rise above the chatter vs doing other things that let you escape but you go below the chatter really resonated with me. It is sooo true! I just wanted to let you know. Really awesome post I’m still thinking about it Thank you!
It’s been almost five years I think since I have seen you. Thanks for creating and including me in this group; what a wonderful idea. Also, I thoroughly enjoy your “did you know” posts. Furthermore, I just bought and desperately needed your new book “The Lower Back Bible”. I wanted you to know that you are still to this day my favorite yoga teacher by far. I think you are truly gifted. I am glad you are traveling the world sharing your gift.
Take Care,
