Comments from Participants 

A comprehensive course with an emphasis on practical experience. In addition to preparing those who wish to teach, it is ideal for those with a background in Yoga who wish to take their practice further, learning about the Spiritual and Philosophical aspects. Swami Saradananda is generous with her knowledge, open and hospitable, and her devotion and experience are inspirational.

~ Tim Hallewell, yoga teacher, west London

Swami Saradananda´s course for learning to teach meditation has been a most constructive, interesting, and highly informative course that has answered lots of questions concerning teaching meditation and given me the confidence to now teach it .I recommend it to anyone wanting a good grounding on the subject. Thank you Swamiji!

~ Ruth Fellner, yoga teacher, Malaga Spain

Swami Saradananda's ‘Teach Meditation’ course may be the most valuable study I have ever undertaken. It was the first time I ever submitted myself to a practice and let it shape me – it was a real turning point in my life. The course will leave you with a storehouse of knowledge to teach from as well as leaving room for your own thoughts and development.

~ Robert Kay, yoga teacher, Kent

I found the meditation course very thorough and enjoyable, looking at various different aspects and exploring different methods of meditation. It was a greater commitment as I had originally anticipated but I was rewarded with some revealing insights into my own behaviour and thought patterns. I enjoyed the various quotes on our handouts.

~ Nataraja Gabriele Steen, yoga teacher, Surrey

Swami Saradananda’s course contains enough material to set you on the path to meditation with the tools of your choice, breath, visualization, and mantras, with the wisdom of Raja yoga to deepen your exploration of the self. I feel happy and prepared to teach meditation now.

~ Kim Duran, yoga teacher, Bournemouth

I would just like to say how much I enjoyed the workshops, meeting new friends and how much I got out of your teachings a true inspiration. Thank you.

~ Emma Spivey, yoga teacher, Berks

I really enjoyed doing the ‘Teach Meditation’ homework; it’s so absorbing. The course has helped me to clarify so much with my work as a yoga teacher, realising that I am not just limited to teaching asanas. Opening to new ideas and focusing on  my own practice keeps my view clear as to why I practice yoga. I feel that I can bring more depth to my classes  and inspire students to practice more with increasing  interest in the yogic path. Also, as the mother of a teenager, it has helped me to become a more tolerant parent.

~ Bhavani Maria Annibal, yoga teacher, Ruislip, Middx

I learnt so much about myself, the way I think and how that effects what I do. It was interesting to explore different types of techniques- I think some of us are better with sound others with vision and it was good to find this out.

~ Louise Cashin, yoga teacher, Richmond

A thorough well-structured course which has greatly benefited my personal practice as well as helping my students.

~ Mita Shah, yoga teacher, Harrow

Clearly structured step by step guide to teaching meditation! One feels as if someone takes you by the hand and takes you down a very deep path, stony perhaps but always with firm guidance and reassurance. Infectious teacher, supportive environment.

~ Beate Fritzsching-Jerschke, yoga teacher, North London

I thoroughly enjoyed the course…. Gave greater depth to my personal and teaching practice. I found doing daily practice particularly helpful, also keeping spiritual diary, spending time learning and revisiting meditation theory and practice.

~ Ntathu Allen, yoga teacher, Southeast London

I felt the course, in general, was all embracing, structured with in-built discipline as the exercises had to be completed and monitored on a daily basis. This is a detailed, professional approach which “airs” all aspects of the meditation process and highlights deficiency/areas needing to be worked on.

As someone who had been “meditating” on their own using predominantly books the course was an excellent way of determining where I was with my practice and finding what was needed to move forward. Raja Yoga led me to meditation the Teach Meditation course led me back to the science of Raja Yoga.

~ William Marshall, Essex

An excellent course, well structured, plenty of information, life changing.

~ Marian Simpson, yoga teacher, Derry, Ireland

Swami Sardananda’s Teach Meditation course renewed my practice of yoga and life and was at the same time, enlightening, engrossing and demanding. Swami Sardananda is an inspiring teacher.

~ Helen Suddards, yoga teacher, Greece

I thoroughly enjoyed the course even though at the beginning it felt quite intense and time consuming. After the first couple of weeks I found my self settling in to it. The course was generous and rich with information, philosophy and teaching skills.

~ Shelley Bloom, yoga teacher, Herts
