I did my 200hr training with Vidya and Jennifer in Spain and Advanced training in Mexico. I can't wait to meet them both again in India, to complete the 500hr. Training with these 2 ladies has been an amazing experience. From every angle.

The course syllabus has been created with utmost precision to equip a new (or already experienced) teacher with a wealth of tools to instruct yoga safely and creatively. The courses do not cover just the basics that other courses offer. FLY courses offer so much more, seamlessly merging elements from other related disciplines (e.g.thai yoga massage, science of meridians and much more) to offer extra information and experience to FLY teacher trainees. Vidya and Jennifers' experience and knowledge are so rich, and they communicate and offer huge amounts of it. The fact that both have been practising and teaching for many years and have various yoga styles under their belt means that they can offer the best of all of them, without being partial to any particular style exclusively.

You will work hard during the intensives, but you will love every minute of it. Perfectly chosen locations and great people will top it all of. You will make wonderful friends and feel fully supported on your yoga teaching journey.

I feel blessed to have studied with Vidya and Jen and I will continue to study with them in the future. They are true yoginis and wonderful teachers.
