If you’re thinking of doing the teacher training course, just go for it! It’s brilliant for yourself and a great way to help others
Charlotte Jackson

This Spirituality of Yoga course brought me back to my deeper self, and allowed me to feel entirely connected. Not only to those in this Sangha, but also to nature, consciousness, all people and living things. The sequences brought through some profound wisdom and old patterns that I needed to change. I loved the format and the frequency of attendance. Such a gorgeous blessing to have come out of an isolated lockdown situation. I’m looking forward to the next chapter, it has relit my fire for sacred texts and other aspects I have allowed to slip. I feel I am now deeply back on the path I have always meant to be on, and as a result my life feels much richer.

Having attended classes for over a year it was really good to have a taster of a longer session and different poses, breathing techniques. Felt very centred.

I liked the warm-up - the twist, my era! It was a good venue; comfortable and nice choice of refreshments. The workshop was lovely, gentle and supportive. Reaffirms why I love yoga.

I would like to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to everyone involved. The community that every single one of you has contributed to is really special and I feel will move forward and do great things. Thank you to those who shared your guidance and experience, and thank you to those who brought them tea while they were doing it and those that cleaned the rooms before and after. I am very excited to move forward and develop xx

Dru is the power tool I use to clear the debris from my body and mind.
Brenda Baker
Sixth Form Tutor, Somerset, England
My experience of Dru and yoga had been limited to one wonderful walking and yoga retreat at the Nation Centre in Snowdonia the previous year. My isolation during lockdown led me, for exercise reasons, to the Dru online studio recommended by a friend and my life was transformed when I immersed myself in the many workshops, talks and classes they were providing live over the period. I came to "know" the wonderful teachers. When the spirituality of yoga course was offered, I jumped at the chance. It was the most beautiful, uplifting and sustaining experience I have ever had. My only regret was that it only lasted 21 days which did not give me the chance to really get to know any of the 200 other participants from all over the world. My heart leapt when a chance to be part of the community as a Sangha over the next 11 months was offered. Thank you Dru team. You are very special wonderful people.

Coherence / flow / good management / joy / serenity. Delighted to take part and learn some new and exciting interpretations of yoga. Very happy that you opened this masterclass out to non-Dru yoga teachers.

These Dru Youth yoga retreats are so beneficial and have given me so much confidence to be my true self in everything I do and my everyday choices.
When I feel stressed or going through a rough time it is so amazing to remember that I have such a close support network from Dru who all share their support, love and care with everyone whenever it is needed. This love, care and support is always reciprocated.
Dru Yoga courses are such an amazing experience to have. I think everyone would benefit from having an experience like that. They teach you so many stress-relieving techniques that everyone can benefit from.
The friends and memories you make at Dru stay with you for life.
I look forward to the Dru Youth course all year round

There was lots of variation, some easy, some more challenging. Lots of explanation about how to move and the theory behind the moves. I love to know stuff :).

Very relaxing. I had the best sleep that I have had in years which must have been because I was so totally relaxed.

An expanding experience of the body and mind. A really special & beautiful place to be a part of. Meeting lots of new people, though from very different backgrounds but all wanting to explore further/increase their knowledge of Dru yoga & its various elements and also those who make Dru principles their lives and want to help others enhance their lives.

Thanks to all the Dru team for such a wonderful 3 weeks on the Spirituality of Yoga course. I thank you with so much gratitude for the knowledge and wisdom shared by all teachers. To feel the richness of the love and support was quite profound. Finding your inner peace and stillness is your natural state and this course gave you the tools through yoga, meditation, mantra and nature to help with your spiritual quest. It was also so beautiful to be part of a community from all over the world with people of like mind who want to make a difference on our amazing earth. Namaste.
Debra Mann

What I'll take away from today's postgrad workshop:- sharing with other yoga teachers from other yoga schools of yoga. Great explanation of the koshas and I'll add Salutation to the 4 Directions to my lessons.
Paula Sutton
Estate agent, Plymouth, Devon, UK
I really enjoyed being amongst like-minded yogis. I enjoyed the moving posture work as it's not often I do postures I tend to do EBR[s or sequence work. I enjoyed the sequence this afternoon. I absolutely love all of these workshops and they keep me connected, both with new yogis and in my own body and mind. There was. very good mix of exercises, things to think bout and contributing verbally.
