Taking the YogaSpace Teacher Training Program
was an amazingly rich experience. We were guided to delve
deep and speak from our own experience. I learned how to
teach in a way that is true to me, which is the way
to be an authentic and compelling teacher. I learned to
develop a keen eye for the needs of different students, to
honour each one as an individual body, an individual person.
The program provided a solid foundation for teaching
Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga – the combination of Kathryn
and Patricia was powerful. The studio space is beautiful
and is the home for a strong community of yoga teachers
that I connected with throughout the training program and
continue to connect with while teaching. —Madelaine

The Yoga Teacher Training at YogaSpace transformed my
teaching and my life. The studio itself is a reflection
of the learning. The light pours into the west studio with
a zen quality, creating space in the mind and body. The
dark womb of the second studio lets one delve deeply into
the teachings. Trusting your teacher is key to learning.
Kathryn and Patrica , though different, create this trusting
environment with their knowlege of the body, their intensity
and their humour. The experience of silence, tears, laughter
and song bring the teachings to life. Like all great techers
they find the edges and fear and guide you through –
maybe its a full wheel . Respecting boundaries they find
a faith that you didnt know you had. It is a privilege to
teach where I continue to learn. I m now earning my living
teaching yoga, in schools, community centres and studios
around the city. I love my life. YogaSpace is pivotal for
me to be the Yoga teacher I seek. —Dale Stafford
I would highly recommend the YogaSpace teacher training
program to anyone considering yoga teacher training. Patricia
White and Kathryn Beet are a wealth of information and knowledge.
I have grown greatly as both a person and in my yoga practice
through attending this program. The warmth and safety created
atYogaSpace and the honesty and genuineness of the faculty
greatly facilitated learning and I felt we all grew together
as a group. A highly supportive and fully present faculty
allowed us to push our boundaries and blossom and grow to
our fullest potential. Patricia’s detailed and grounded
approach (Vanda Scaravelli style) works from the inside
out. Kathryn’s philosophical side and openness allowed
us to examine ourselves and to grow through this. I really
enjoyed and learned a lot from our anatomy and philosophy
sections with Holly and Ante. They are expert in their area.
The combination of Hatha and Vinyasa hugely benefited my
learning and I am now fully equipped to teach both styles.
I found many things were pointed out at YogaSpace in the
asana classes that teachers elsewhere do not point out.
This faculty really really cares that you get it! They treat
each person as special and unique. These teachers use hands-on
assists more than any other place I’ve been and I
think this helped me in a huge way to go to another level.
We also learned how to perform skilled hands-on assists.
Also, the assignments we had were great and totally geared
towards becoming expert teachers. This program far surpassed
my expectations. I can’t thank the faculty enough
for all that I’ve taken away from this program. The
honesty is refreshing. Thanks for being such great teachers
and being so present and caring so much. The group of people
I met and everyone involved in the program will always have
a special place in my heart. I will cherish this experience
as I carry forth. — June McCullam
