Such a joy to be in the beautiful Algarve enjoying the amazing life force and energy of the place with beautiful like minded people.
Stevie Foster
SEN Teacher, Leeds
The Spirituality of Yoga Course was a beautiful oasis of calm in an otherwise quite stressful time. I felt held and nurtured by the tutors and the practices they offered us. The group developed into a real community of people upholding, supporting and gently challenging it's members to make a commitment to ourselves and our spiritual growth.

The classes were very good. It was all great and we had fun

What I'll take from the postgrad workshop today:- I loved the way this flowed from information and reflection to practical yoga practice (and back again). it was a very satisfying day on every level, physical, mental and emotional. Thank you so much.

A great confidence builder/giver. A place to feel loved and nurtured. I felt the benefit I gained from working with others was fundamental and invaluable to the start of my learning process.
Jane Clark

What I'll take from today's yoga postgrad workshop:- A found it a very holistic day. Sharing the teaching of postures with the others was very useful and I loved the Salutation to the 4 Directions. As usual, great resources and excellent teaching from Anne & Padma. Thank you.

Dru has helped me to transform my life slowly; to find some sunshine despite life's challenges. It works subtly and powerfully to bring us back to balance with ourselves and our inner nature. Dru Yoga is suitable for all people of all abilities. Just go for it!
Dr Melanie Jones PhD

This course came as a support at a difficult time, spiritually, for me. The Spirituality of Yoga Course provided focus, a structure to move forward, and showed me some of the jewels of spiritual practice that will stand me in good stead for years to come. Thank you.

“When you bring together a group of people who perhaps do not know each other very well and within a week they are able to dance together in joy… it must be worth a look.”
SB
Finance Manager, St Ann's Chapel, Cornwall, UK
I enjoyed all of this workshop, but particularly EBR3 and the flowing tree. My overall impression was that this workshop was great; very peaceful and as a complete beginner, easy for me to do.

Maggie Sanderson
Dru Yoga & Meditation teacher, The Netherlands
The Spirituality of Yoga helped me to focus what is important to me in my life right now. My heart knows the path I wish to follow. With the practices I felt my distractions melt away and I felt myself expanding consciously. Exactly what I was looking for.

Nice sociable, friendly day. Great mix of activity and relaxation - positive atmosphere. I enjoyed all aspects. Hope I can remember some things to add to my yoga practice. The workshop was well organised and planned - all running very smoothly. All teachers very enthusiastic, confident and reassuring.

Dru Ayurveda & Yoga workshop:- A magical mixture! Treat yourself - heal yourself naturally.
Karina
Family Nurse, Bolton
Since starting Dru I feel I have developed a stronger sense of ‘Self’. In everything I try to do to develop myself I am slowly seeing changes also in those I have close contact with. I feel I am calmer and focus on self care- family and work colleagues are beginning to join me
Laurann
Health researcher
Making the world peaceful and happy one smile, one breath and one stretch at a time is a worthwhile thing to do
Dr Anne Mawr
GP, Yorkshire
I would thoroughly recommend the APD to anyone that is considering doing it.
I have benefitted enormously from it.
I did the course during the covid pandemic lockdown. A time of anxiety and fear. The knowledge that I gained helped me to recognise and acknowledge my feelings and gave me tools to deal with them.
The yoga postures , sequences and breathing techniques that are already familiar can be used to change our emotional energy.
In the same way that we have learnt to scan our physical body for aches and pains and stiffness or injury and use yoga postures and stretches to ease ourselves , I have learnt to scan my emotional and energetic body and recognise negative thoughts and patterns and how to correct them. By doing this regularly I feel more self-confident and happy .
I remember a very powerful moment when we were doing the Eagle posture and imagining that we were looking down at ourselves and what we perceived. I thought ‘ I am cool ‘ ! That thought has stayed with me.

I’ve never felt so happy in my whole life.
Jane
Dru Teacher, Stone
It has deepened my practice and has also given me ideas about the way I practice; the notes of freedom. Ever since taking the course, I have really begun to understand some elements of myself that I knew I needed to work on – I suppose I have become more aware.
In many ways, the course encouraged me to develop and think about key words to use in class and to incorporate more than just the ‘physical experience of yoga’.
GW
Retired, Ivybridge, Devon, UK
The workshop was warm, friendly, very interesting and mind altering. It was all inclusive, encouraging and well put together.
Michael
Co-manager, I am love, Bochum, Germany
With love, patience, knowledge and a lot of fun you become empowered to be a wonderful teacher. For me the training is perfect in many regards. Wonderful balance between practical and theoretical learning. I bet anyone could do that!
Charlotte May
The course has developed my knowledge of the koshas and has given me a practical step by step method for incorporating this into my practice (which has changed phenomenally)!
Lynda
Dru teacher, Abergavenny
It has taught me to listen to my own body and the voice inside me that knows exactly what I should say and do. By taking the course, I know that my life will be full of abundance - I have it all inside. I feel I can connect to my pupils on a different level and I am able to help them on their life journey.
