The Yoga Therapy workshop in Portugal was a deeply enriching component of my yoga therapy studies, tying together the insights gained from the online modules with hands-on practice. This immersive experience allowed me to apply theoretical knowledge in real-life case studies, with content presented in a way that was both accessible and profoundly impactful. It also strengthened my sense of connection with the yoga therapy community. Sharing insights and experiences with Montserrat, Caroline, and my fellow students was truly inspiring and invaluable. I couldn’t recommend this workshop and the studies at Yoga Therapy Institute more highly!

I recently attended an incredible offline teaching workshop with the Yoga Therapy Institute. The workshop was not only beautifully organized but also offered an enriching blend of practical teaching, hands-on practices, and deep insights into the therapeutic applications of yoga.Our teachers, Montserrat (Gomez) Mukherjee and Caroline Kila, shared profound knowledge and a genuine dedication to supporting our development as yoga therapists. They created a supportive environment for learning new skills, the content was both rich and accessible, allowing us to deepen our understanding of anatomy, breathwork, and the important aspects of yoga therapy.The setting in Portugal was a wonderful addition—a peaceful, scenic town by the ocean. The Institute team, along with our warm and attentive host Willemijn, ensured everything flowed seamlessly, from accommodations to meals. Their efforts, along with the connection among participants, created a strong sense of community.If you’re considering advancing your practice or diving deeper into yoga therapy, it is a very enhancing experience. The Yoga Therapy Institute truly sets a high standard for quality, integrity, and inspiration in teaching.

The yoga therapy week in Portugal with Montserrat and Caroline was inspiring and energizing. It was wonderful to connect with the teachers and fellow students in person. I feel like I am part of the yti family.

Studying at The Yoga Therapy Institute has been an incredible experience. I have gained so much more than I could have imagined I would when I signed up for the diploma. Having recently graduated, I feel resourced not only with a wealth of knowledge & understanding, but also the confidence and self-belief that I can put what I have learnt into action. Through the course, I have made friends from all corners of the world, who I am still in touch with, creating an international community of people to call upon, who support and inspire one another.I am so grateful to every single person who works within TYTI, from the technical and administration staff who are always available to provide support and truly care about making your learning experience the best it can be for you, all the way to the tutors, who somehow, in spite of how many students must have studied at TYTI by now, know everyone by name, remember all the little details about you, and encourage you to use the knowledge, skills and perspectives they have helped you to cultivate in ways that feel most authentic and purposeful to you.

The "Yoga for Menopause" on-demand course is an invaluable resource, especially as a yoga teacher guiding students through menopause. Its strong scientific foundation adds credibility, ensuring that the techniques offered are both safe and effective. Marleen and Monts have a deep understanding and empathetic approach, which not only educated me but also enriched my teaching toolbox, allowing me to offer tailored, supportive guidance to my students. Having flexible access to the content was particularly useful, enabling me to integrate insights into classes seamlessly. Highly recommended for its comprehensive and scientifically backed approach. I will be back for more, no doubt! Thank you. Andrea 'Samya' (Goreham)

After doing the 200hr Trauma-informed Yoga Teaching Course, I feel I have a solid understanding of the key important areas of teaching yoga - a great platform to start my yoga teacher journey from. There was a big focus on anatomy which is so important for yoga (for our knowledge of the benefits of poses and to reduce risk of injuries), and the trauma-informed principles are key to support to create a safe space when teaching. I also loved that we started teaching from day 4 and built up throughout the 3 weeks, it really has helped me moving into teaching after the course as had chance to develop and get feedback on my teaching. Manouk is so knowledgeable! Lynette also complimented Manouk's style, with the focus on the Eastern perspective. I would highly recommend this yoga teacher training! Especially as trauma-informed principles should be known by all yoga teachers, and it is the only training I could find focused on this.

I did the 200h training with TYTI. It was perfect for me. I like that we had many opportunities to practise teaching during the training. The anatomy and philosophy lessons were detailed and easy to follow thanks to the comprehensible teaching style. The trauma-informed aspect of the training makes it really special. I am looking forward to apply those principles in my classes. I would recommend the training to anyone who wants to become a yoga teacher or just learn more about yoga.

The instructionors were fantastic & the material covered was packaged in an easy to understand through way. The yoga is accessible to all & the guidance & support throughout the process is very helpful.

In my search for a school offering IAYT-accredited yoga therapy, I am truly glad to have found this school.All the teachers have a combination of expertise and experience, they are all very respectable in their teaching and as yoga therapists. And most importantly, they are all wonderful people.The discussions among students, both in online and in-person modules, are based on their own personal experiences with diversity and are very meaningful to explore the advanced yoga therapy journey.The online course is also very helpful because the recorded videos and materials can be viewed over and over again later at your own pace.The in-person class I attended this July took place in a very beautiful city, Haarlem environment, and along with learning practical skills and knowledge, I was able to spend time in my own therapy with all the beautiful teachers and students.All connections are respectful and loving; you will learn in a safe and secure environment.I would highly recommend this institute to anyone interested in learning about true health care and becoming a yoga therapist by combining the wisdom of science and therapeutic yoga wisdom with a whole-person valued approach.

I have started my yoga therapy journey a couple of month ago with The Yoga Therapy Institute and it has truely added so much value to my life. The amount of effort put in creating the most effictive learning modalaties is extraordinary. I have also recently just attended a live module at Haarlem this july, and it was one of the most restorative experiences in my life, I learned a lot through all my senses and embodied all the teachings beautifully. The teachers are not only extremely experienced and greatly knowledgable, but also very keen on teaching the us how to become our own teachers. I am very grateful to be a part of this.

Yoga Therapy Institute is the best choice one can make when deciding to embark on a journey like the one of becoming a Yoga Therapist. The level of commitment, professionalism and quality of everything we are offered as students is always 100% and more. The training delivered online is a great advantage for so many of the us, reducing traveling and accommodation costs, and contributing to a great international community, knowledge, multi-cultural diversity and extensive network of professionals. The materials offered from lectures to manuals, videos, books recommendations, etc. are always updated to what is new on the market, latest research and in alignment with our future as Yoga Therapists. The teachers are very knowledgeable, warm, friendly and accommodating; the entire programme is taught through the lenses of trauma informed and overall atmosphere has the same qualities. All the teachers teach what they had already embodied. Perhaps the greatest advantage of all is the applicability of the course dealing with live case studies and examples. Montsserat is a great leader with vision and an amazing mentor who has built something extraordinary.

One of the main reasons I chose Yoga Therapy Institute is the choice of receiving knowledge and certificate through online studies. As my job requires excessive traveling this is the perfect option for me. Besides the speaker faculty has so much information and experience to share it’s a privilege to spend time learning from them.

So much knowledge, such a great community. I feel a lot of gratitude for the fact that The Yoga Therapy Institute is making the effort to make Yoga Therapy accessible for everyone. The online modules are live and great. The best thing is that we all learn from each other, so many different backgrounds/ internationalities and knowledge come together and this makes the learningcurve even steeper.
