“Thank you for your course. Thank you for that beautifully curated manual. I’ve been slowly sifting through it. I really love your style and how you taught us to sequence a class. I teach with a new confidence. I cannot wait to grow more. I’d love to study with you more” 
Louisa

“My yin training with Caroline has really changed my perspective towards my health, my practice and my teaching. Prior to, I was constantly feeling burnt out and practiced a lot of vinyasa and power yoga, but the training and Caroline’s guidance really helped me to see how to slow down and tune in. Yin is now my favourite practice, every day I take at least one shape. It’s also one of my favourite practices to teach, alongside slow flow,  I’ve left power behind for now as I realised it wasn’t best serving me” 
Lydia 

“I loved my time on the Yin Training Course with Caroline. The course was both informative and engaging. Caroline led the group well and had a lot of knowledge to share. The small group setting meant that it was easy to share information between students too and created a great learning environment.”
Kat

“My TMC and Yin Yoga teacher training with Caroline was extremely authentic with such important knowledge. I learnt so much from the beautiful perspective of Caroline, she always uses clear explanations and is very available for all questions. She is very dedicated to Yoga and all anatomic aspects.I will recommend without hesitation to follow this training”
Paulina

“The way in which you carry yourself and have organised the “online”aspect is thoughtful and professional. And the amount of knowledge you’d gained across the years clearly shows, but you have a way of making it digestible to a newcomer.”
