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.

GBA superb course with humble and experienced facilitators. I attended the Birmingham Teacher Training course with Nick, Rachel and a guest teacher from Oxford. They all brought something different and held the space beautifully. I've attended and taught many courses in related field, so I am pretty fussy! I was not disappointed. And the experience for myself was elevating and revitalising. I plan on returning for a refresher or more courses.

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.

GBExcellent on line Mindfulness teacher training I’d originally booked onto this course hoping to attend in person, but due to covid I ended up doing the virtual on line training. What an absolute joy it was, brilliantly designed to ensure you have that immersive experience. The content and what was covered was excellent and we had lots of time to practice what we’d learnt. Maddy, Nick with support from Claire did a brilliant job delivering this virtual training! I would thoroughly recommend these guys if you are considering studying mindfulness.
