GBAn excellent course with expert support This was an excellent course with good opportunities to learn from various methods, including didactic, group exercises, exploration of issues and direct practices of mindfulness. The setting of St John’s College, Oxford was amazing. I would thoroughly recommend it!

GBMindfulness Now Teacher Training College This is a five day non residential course which teaches you the format of their own version of the classic MBSR and MBCT 8 week courses. You essentially leave with a handbook a few meditation techniques and a course syllabus to use. Teaching how to hold space for students or groups is not featured, and minimal opportunities for practice teaching is given. The assessment time framework is rigid and takes no account of individual needs and circumstances even if a trainee experiences any family life crises or loss within the assessment timeframe. Very little to no support is given during the assessment window. Don’t waste your time or money.

GBExcellent Mindfulness Training The trainers were so knowledgeable and approachable. Truly a great learning experience with just the right balance of student participation and trainer presentation. Thank you so much, I hope to be able to put my newly acquired skills into practice in the near future. Would definitely recommend.

GBMost useful week Ive had for a while I recently attended the 5 day mindfulness teacher training course and I have to say the course has dramatically changed my lifestyle. The trainers were well informed and educated in this field as well as having vast expertise. I learnt a lot about mindfulness, the techniques and various forms during my weeks training. I really liked the practice sessions and despite my nerves, I was surprised at how much I had learnt already. I will be taking up the offer to join the Facebook support groups and will continue to read the manual to increase my knowledge before practising with colleagues however, I'm now keen to start to deliver some mindfulness sessions to my colleagues.

GBThe Mindfulness Now course run by Maddy… The Mindfulness Now course run by Maddy and Nick was an absolute delight from start to finish. The content and the way it was delivered was second to none. The course was delivered via zoom; this did not take away from the experience and all the participants and teachers were able to build a lovely rapport together. I can't recommend this course highly enough.
