TESTIMONIALS

Mel, Teacher

Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful. Yogazeit's Teacher Wellbeing classes are a real treat. Mindful Monday after school is  my favourite day of the week. We stay on site at school and practice with a group of teachers in the hall. Highly recommended to fill up your cup!

Samantha (14) – Co Curricular Classes

I learned how to use Yoga Breathing to help me when I feel stressed or anxious. It has been really helpful at school and at home.

Claire, Teenage Yoga Teacher Training

It’s the most structured, practical yet theoretical course I’ve been on. Good balance between practice, theory and reflection time. I feel so confident to actually run a class now which is a good reflection on the material.

Lee, Teens Yoga Teacher Training

Fantastic Training Material!

Isabella, Children and Teens Teacher Training

Fantastic training! Can highly recommend this to anyone interested in bringing Yoga and Mindfulness to Kids or Teens.

K. Dicker, Principal Beaconsfield Primary School

Thank you for the Mindfulness Movement Professional Learning. A number of staff have commented that it is one of the best PLs they have been involved in. Thank you so much, I can’t wait to see it in action.

Kylie – Childrens Yoga Teacher Training

Wonderful. Regina led a transformative journey and I’m so excited to be a part of the Yoga Ed. in Australia Teaching team!

Serena B.-H., East Waikiki Primary School

Thank you for an amazing Mindfulness and Sound Bath session. Everyone is still talking about how nice and good for them it was. Thank you again for the fantastic work you have done for the staff who have attended the sessions. It was a great end to the year.

Marsha, Training Graduate

Amazing course, very engaging. Regina is fabulous and so inspiring. She is very experienced, knowledgeable and so supportive and real. The content is easy to follow and fun. I highly recommend the teacher course and for people to place their children into a yoga class. The benefits are amazing.

Asha, 4hour Tools for Teachers

It was a great PD, would highly recommend to friends and colleagues.

Liam 7, After School Yoga

Since I'm doing Yoga I know how to breathe to help me feel better when I'm upset or anxious.

Mum of Marco (13)

Marco loved the Yoga and Mindfulness and it has helped him a lot with his Anxiety. Thank you!

Kaye – Children’s Yoga Teacher Training

Regina is one of the best teachers I have had in my life. Thourough, engaging and interactive.

Wellness PD Participant

Best experience EVER! The combination of Professional Learning, Wellness tools that I can practice in the classroom and at home as well as the nurturing yoga and absolute amazing SoundBath. I can highly recommend this. I wish I could do this every week!

6hour Tools for Teachers, Murdoch University

Wonderful! Such easy and practical tips and ideas! 

Mum of Karla (3), Toddler Yoga

Karla loves doing her yoga moves. She wuffs and miaows. I'm astonished how she listens and takes it all in! Highly recommended!

Tools for Teachers Workshop – Family Pathways

I learned so much about yoga tools and how they can support my classroom and myself. Thank you!

Vicky, Children’s Yoga Teacher Training

Appreciate the evidence which supports what we already know is the truth of yoga. Great to have so much emphasis on brain development

Kindy Teacher, Beaconsfield Primary School

I loved that yoga/mindfulness PD. I feel strongly that the best gift we can give to children is an awareness of their thoughts and feelings and strategies to support them. I will be using what I picked up in the classroom and I am so happy to work at a school that values this. 

Jane Wells, Aegis Aged Care

Dear Yogazeit, Just wanted to let you know Bianca was awesome today and the residents really enjoyed the chair yoga class. We look forward to booking Yogazeit again for 2021.

Ellie, High School Teacher (6hour Tools for Teachers)

I loved your PD at Murdoch University and want to learn more!

Emma, Children’s Yoga Teacher Training

Regina was out of this world! Such a grounded, open and honest person with so much love to give. Thank you for making my four days unforgettable.

Claire, Children’s Yoga Teacher Training

As a yoga instructor coming to expand my knowledge in teaching children’s yoga, I was very pleased with the quality of the training. The Yoga Ed. Curriculum is well designed for the school (and non school) environment and Regina from Yogazeit is a highly skilled practitioner and genuinely great teacher. I would highly recommend the training to school teachers, yoga teachers or anyone with a passion for supporting holistic child development!

Ross Williams, Teenage Yoga Teacher Training

I just finished the 4 day Yoga Teenage Teacher Training course. Enriching experience - personally and professionally. Looking forward to using my new knowledge, understanding & skills with my students. Thank you Regina for sharing your expertise with us and guiding as through the course with consummate ease.

Lindy, Year 5 teacher

Yogatime is my favourite time. Every Thursday after school we meet in the hall and Regina and her team come out to provide us with a guided Yoga and Mindfulness class. What I love is that it is accessible for all bodies. I learn to relax and calm my mind and body. When I walk out of the room, I feel like walking on clouds. Highly recommended.

Rebecca, Children’s Yoga Teacher Graduate

Regina is amazing! Attended a 4 day training on becoming a children’s yoga instructor. The course was excellent. Very detailed, beautifully taught and excellent training material provided. Would highly recommend.

Mel, Children’s and Teens Yoga Teacher Training

Amazing. Regina was so knowledgeable, engaging, supportive. Great structure, appropriate breaks. Great delivery. Very open and real. An amazing and inspiring teacher. And fun.

Margot, Educator. Tools for Teachers Workshop

This was a really enjoyable workshop, and left me with lots of practical strategies to take into classrooms. I'm feeling really motivated to introduce this to schools I visit. Thank you Regina 

Maddison, Treeby Parklands Opal Healthcare

The chair yoga session today was absolutely amazing! The feedback was so great. Can we arrange another yoga class please?

Liz, Mum

Thank you so much for these lovely workshops that you organise. Beautiful for all these young girls. Taylah (8) really enjoyed herself.

Anna, 4hour Tools for Teachers

Regina held a very informative and interactive session that gave me hands on training to experience and practice YogaEd. Thank you for equipping me with skills to become a more mindful teacher and hopefully pass this on to my students.

Margot, Yoga Educator

This was a really enjoyable Tools for Teachers workshop, and left me with lots of practical strategies to take into classrooms. I'm feeling really motivated to introduce this to schools I visit. Thank you Regina

Kym (Waggrakine Primary School)

I did YOGAZEIT's Teacher course in January 2019. I have been holding 2 yoga sessions a week with our students in their play time, its been so lovely to see the kids come running to the hall to do yoga on these days! Now we're looking at implementing a program for the whole school. It's been great!

Children’s Yoga Teacher Training

I left the training empowered and ready to teach. I practiced with my school classroom the next day and am SO thrilled by how much I learned in 32hours with Regina and Yoga Ed. Highly recommended!

Leila (8) Making Mindful Movement Matter

Yoga was great. Jaci is a great teacher. My favourite breath is Joy Breath. It makes me feel happy and gets my whole body moving!

Teacher Wellbeing Program

This is SO wonderful! Every Monday after school we get to practice yoga and mindfulness. This is very relaxing and helps me destress and feel more focused and on-task. I highly recommend to make time for yoga!

Angie, Online Yoga class participant

I would like to THANK YOU very much for your generosity in providing ZOOM Yoga during our Lock Down.

What a lovely thought and idea.  Your goodwill and kindness is greatly appreciated.

My grandchildren and I enjoyed it immensely. Thank you for reaching out and connecting with people.

Kirsty (Mum of a 10yo girl)

My 10 year old daughter attended the Yogini Yoga & Mindfulness Workshop and loved it!
When I asked her what was the best part she said, "meeting the girls who were all really nice, the fun activities we got to do and Regina was a really good teacher"
She's already looking forward to doing another one. So we both highly recommend the Yoga & Mindfulness Workshops with Yogazeit. Thanks Regina and it looks like we'll see you again for the next one 🙏🧘‍♀️

Anja, Lifestyle Coordinator Opal Aged Care

Yogazeit's classes are fantastic! We're looking forward to our weekly chair yoga for over a year now and it's a regular for our residents and their families. I can highly recommend this program!

Beth, Children’s Yoga Teacher Training

Amazing, engaging yoga teacher. After attending the kids yoga teacher course I have all the tools I need to start my own business confidently. Regina is FABULOUS

Mira, Teenage Yoga Teacher Training

Incredible. Clear, descriptive, hands on balanced with theory.

Leila, 9 – After School Yoga Program

I love the movement and balancing and feel I can better control myself when I'm upset or anxious.

Anne, Mum of Maisie and Alice

Thank you so much for the wonderful classes you are providing. Maisie and Alice are always so excited for the class and enjoy the new skills they are learning. Alice set up her own yoga class after the session!
You are a wonderful teacher and it’s been great to be a part of the Wednesday mornings. Take care.

Sue, Mum

Ella (15) has learned tools to de-stress and unwind. So beneficial for life at school and at home. Thank you!

Joe (5) After School Yoga

I love Bear Breathing and Crow Pose!

Robyn – Primary School Teacher

Regina was awesome. Loved the way she modeled the techniques as if we would do it with children. Also great that she gave time for us to practice in a non-threatening way. I started the techniques straight after attending the PD. The Kids loved it.

Sophie, Teacher

"I have committed to engaging my students in mindfulness and yoga at the start of every lesson, since participating at your Workshop at Murdoch Uni.Not only does it  provide a space for focus and awareness for my students, but it provides me with the space to explore who I am as a teacher.I have been teaching for about 24 years, so I feel like I know when I have found a good thing!  Offering a calm and meditative space for young people to be through the very difficult time of Covid-19 has felt very important. In the last few stressful days of last term, six year 7 students attended my class, four of whom said they hadn’t slept the night before. I led them through a visualisation based on yours where they go through a door. I think you call in “A special Place”. Two of them stayed asleep and one said, “Miss, can we do that every lesson?”. They then drew their happy place."
