GBTop notch online training Yoga teacher training was a dream come true for me and something I never would have been able to do in person due to a demanding full time I job. I really appreciate the thought and care that went into creating this program. Michelle and her beautiful team are dedicated to the authentic practice of yoga. I learned so much—truly a 5-star experience!

GBI'm delighted I chose MVP I have completed my ytt200 and I am halfway through ytt300. I have booked onto a couple of CPD courses to do later. I really like the way MVP teaches. The concepts are introduced, revisited and expanded upon throughout the training in the form of basic lectures, activities and journal prompts and the more in depth weekend lectures. This has continued from ytt200 to ytt300. It means that I have learnt some new and sometimes complicated concepts with ease and retained the knowledge. The teachers are very knowledgeable and clicking on their personal Yoga Alliance pages, show an impressive range of trainings, teaching and experiences and they continually refer back to the sutras and various teachers of our lineage. There is always someone available to answer my questions and they do so kindly and compassionately. Feedback on practicums is thorough and includes ways to grow as a teacher. As well as the weekend lectures I mentioned, there are also "office hours" where lead trainers teach a wide variety of related topics, including breakdowns of asanas, chanting, book clubs and so much more. There is even free yoga therapy on offer for students. There was a recent update to MVP website and I found it to be a smooth and well thought out transition with email reminders and training opportunities on how to use and migrate to the new platform for people who needed the extra support. I like the new platform and I also like the new structure of weekend lectures. I think the earlier ones were great but could be occasionally a bit hit and miss in parts, though rarely but the more recent lectures are smooth and MVP have obviously looked carefully at their previous material and grown from there. The earlier lectures remain available to students and there is so much value in these earlier lectures too. I love that I have lifetime access and I love being able to learn towards my own interests. I can also binge watch different lectures on a particular concept I'm not getting, until it is integrated. Some of the practices in the lectures are mind blowing. These ladies are true artists of yoga and have gently taken me to places on my spiritual path, which has changed me; now I know who I truly am. For balance, there are a couple of nighles. I don't think the introductory video lectures for each module represent MVP well. They are quite dry and I think the content is being read from a glitchy autocue. I also understand that particular content must be covered to satisfy Yoga Alliance and to provide a scaffolding for the weekend lectures and this does seem like the best way to do it, so it's not a criticism, rather an observation. It can also be a bit confusing to be asked to create and teach classes at the end of module sections, without having had the information from the weekend lectures. It also took me a while to realise that the weekend lectures were part of the required training, and it might be helpful to be signposted to relevant lectures from the platform. These are only very minor points though. I am delighted that I chose MVP and I am proud to say I have been taught by them.

THContinued learning with MVP I've done two courses and am considering doing a third through MVP. My experiences have all been excellent. I enjoy the style of teaching, the courses are well put together, and the team is always available to answer questions. Their approach to yoga is one of the most holistic that I've found out there. They prepare you to be a yoga teacher, not just an instructor. Their range of courses allows you to continue your journey as a yoga student - learning about many aspects of this ancient practice.

DEHighly recommended Highly recommended! Very well organized, very quick responses from support with questions, very good learning content & videos, simply structured. The teachers are friendly and competent. I especially like that great attention is paid to inclusive of all yoga participants, so everyone can participate in my yoga classes without restrictions. I can learn very well with MVP. Thank you!

HKI took their 300 hr YTT and I got much… I took their 300 hr YTT and I got much more than the manual said to be offered! MVP does a great job of making yoga and YTT accessible, the teachers and trainers are knowledgeable, reliable, and reachable. To me, the greatest part is not the course itself, but the weekend lectures, office hours, and other connection points MVP offers to students. This is the best program I have ever taken!
