    Teaching Yoga and Mindfulness to Teens

    Really enjoyed the teen yoga teacher training course with Chalotta. She has a lovely teaching style that teaches you what you knows from all her experience, but leaves space open for you to discover your own style and insights as well.

    Teaching Teen Yoga. Yoga Campus, June 2018

    Fantastic course, very thorough with a fabulous and very supportive trainer, Charlotta. Materials were, and are, entirely appropriate and very useful, as are the post-course support and network through the Teen Yoga Teachers' Forum. All exactly as described in prospectus, if not better.

    Teen Yoga Course

    Charlotta is passionate about ensuring teens have access to the powerful technology for mind, body wellness available through yogic practice and philosophy. She brings this commitment and an enormous amount of experience and knowledge to her teen yoga training course. The resources and support provided during and post the course are second to none. Charlotta is authentic, passionate and inspires a vast numbers of teen yoga teachers to push forward with their goals to support teen mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing (during and well after the course!). Charlotta also works tirelessly behind the scenes to influence leaders and changemakers to recognise the power and evidence of yoga and mindfulness based practice to support children's mental health and integrate these teachings into the mainstream to benefit current and future generations. So excited about the possibilities that Charlotta is driving forward and fully recommend her teen yoga training.

    Teen Yoga in Dublin

    Charlotta has been a true inspiration to me and I still continue to be in awe of all she does for the Yoga community and in helping spread the joy of Yoga. She is intelligent, wise, warm, open, professional, accessible and extremely knowledgeable. She is always willing to help and she has indeed helped so many other Yoga Teachers I have spoken to in all sorts of different ways. The charity work she has done in Sierra Leone teaching Yoga and training Yoga Teachers is truly altruistic and demonstrate how genuine she is, living by the Yoga Sutras. Her Teen Yoga course was fantastic from start to finish and the ongoing support since has been invaluable. Thank you Charlotta!
