TRAINEE REVIEWS & TESTIMONIAL VIDEOS
REVIEWS FROM OUR TRAINEES ON YOGA ALLIANCE
Stepping into my 200h and 300 h YTT with Wellness Connection was a leap into the unknown, and it changed everything . Their expert teachers guided me through a deep dive into anatomy, biomechanics, and the beauty of mindful movement. Learning about the body's intricacies and how to support it safely was empowering. The school's thoughtful, open-minded approach to yoga transformed my practice and equipped me with skills to guide others confidently. Wellness Connection is more than a school - it's a community that fosters growth and connection. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to deepen their practice and teach with compassion.

Beautiful retreat studio location with the highest standard of education - highly recommended! Please do another 500hr course 🙂
Wellness Connection provides an evidence based YTT which is of high quality and always up to date. I am grateful that I was able to be trained by Catherine and her fellow teachers. It is a very profound course, that has a focus on anatomy, which is exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend joining their trainings.
A fantastic 300 hour teacher training course and highly recommended. We were taught to practice, research, question and discover by an excellent team of teachers who not only have an incredible knowledge but also a great sense of fun. Catherine Wilkinson was a huge inspiration and extremely generous of her time and knowledge. It was hard work but so rewarding!
