This journey that I have been on for the last 4 months has been incredible, I would highly recommend this course to anyone and everyone, just be prepared to end up in the most beautiful place where you didn’t think you would!” - Manesha
“Just completed Om Sweet Om’s 200 hour Teacher Training Course - what an amazing four months!! I loved every minute. The course content, the studio space, the intimate setting with only 8 students - it is so generous and heartfelt. Chantal is a wonderful teacher, so down to earth and humble. She encourages you to try new things in a very supported way, I feel like I’ve learnt so much in a short space of time and have established a really good personal practice thanks to her. If you are thinking of doing a yoga teacher training course or just want to deepen your knowledge of yoga, I highly recommend this course. So grateful to Chantal and the students on my course for such a wonderful experience.” - Erica
