- TESTIMONIALS -
Natalie Krug
Alumni of the 200h YTT 2023
The Journey of becoming a Yoga teacher was the most beautiful experience I could have ever asked for. Whereas it seemed impossible for me to teach in the beginning, the training build up so much knowledge and confidence that I feel ready for it now. Marlene and Leonie shared all of their vast and profound knowledge with us and guided us through this transformative journey with so much love and inspiration. I really felt it's a safe space with a lot of beautiful souls sharing this journey with me.
Jenny Trinh
Alumni of the 50h YACEP 2021
After having completed my first 200h teacher training in Ashtanga Yoga the 50h training with Leonie & Marlene gave me a lot of much needed clarity and structure to sequence Vinyasa Yoga classes. The training with Yoga on the Move really helped me to find my voice as a Yoga teacher and I can now teach with much more intention. I am truly grateful for this experience and absolutely recommend.
