An 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!

A great school of Mindfulness A great school of Mindfulness, gentle, and realistic training to meet today’s challenges. Great support by tutors and the supervision is also very up to date. Latest research and links to Neuroscience is also very helpful for teachers. The friendly environment created is an added bonus.

Mindfulness NOW Teacher Training (22-26 Mar) I had a great experience with the course. It was well-paced, with lots of personal anecdotes and experiences shared which helped me loads. Plus, even though it was done online, trainers still managed to help the group bond fairly well by making the environment safe and conducive for sharing, as well as allowing for diverse views and perspectives to be heard. The manual and videos provided are detailed and clear, but allows for our own personality to be added. I look forward to checking in with the trainers again and continuing to receive support from the community. Thank you once again!

Mindfulness 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.

Fantastic training, lovely people. Mindfulness Now teacher training with Maddy & Nick has left me feeling empowered, excited and confident to begin my journey as a mindfulness teacher. My existing practice also benefited from the training, and the insights shared with my fellow trainees. Maddy & Nick are highly experienced, deeply knowledgable and really enjoyable to learn from! I recommend this course to anyone taking the next step in their mindfulness journey.
