The information is great

The information is great, well thought out, however some of the videos are a bit wordy making them difficult to follow. I'd suggest watching with a pen and paper to jot down key points in a way that makes sense to your own style of learning. The purchase of custom course materials is also a good idea for making your own notes. Don't be afraid to push for what you need from your mentor. Question, challenge, and bounce ideas off your mentor! We will all be colleagues one day in the yoga community and its so important that your mentor makes you feel comfortable and treats you with respect and encouragement. This is spoken from indirect experience. In general this has been a positive experience, and its something I've wanted to do for a long time.

Improve grading of assignments/emphasis on own practice

I really enjoy learning everything the videos have to offer and it’s clear that Alanna is extremely well qualified, however, my only qualms with the training is the feedback I receive on assignments. I’ll get docked for something not described in the instructions, or, for example, on the anatomy module I would write something one time and use part of it in the next assignment and it would be graded incorrect in that one yet not the previous same exact one. I just wish that the instructions were more clear, as well as the grading to be more concise and the same across the board. During the training, I also wish there was emphasis on my own practice and how to deepen and further my own practice to be able to better instruct. I think having that be a larger component as well as being graded more accurately the training would be perfect (:

I would not recommend

I do not feel this is an inclusive friendly training. I was rudely shot down for the several times that I shared my opinion during live videos on Facebook with Alana. The grading Of assignments is not fair because when I would compare my videos with other friends that I had made through the Facebook platform the grading of videos was all over the place. It’s obvious that some of the mentors and Alana chose favorites...To everyone. We talk about it all the time. I feel like she is a bit fake, halfway through my training the entire platform changed for the worse. And so did her image and her point of views. The training is also quite hypocritical. I will do some thing just like Alana did in the videos were supposed to learn from and then it will be graded wrong. This training could be so much more if she was not caught up in her self image and selling of all our projects. I would not recommend

I have been wanting to do this online class for a long time and then in May I jumped into it. Best decision I made. Alanna is a wonderful teacher and the Andrew and the rest are truly remarkable. The course is challenging which is wonderful. I have learned so much since starting. At 62 I love yoga and now enjoy learning the positions and alignment correctly. Thank you for all the work involved with this program.

Well Structured and Well Presented

I'm enjoying the course immensely. The material is quite encompassing and well presented. The course is structured so you can get to any place where you might need to have another look, or refresh your memory about a particular thing.
Alanna is engaging and easy to understand and follow.

Loving the training so far!

I am only in the first module and I am already completely immersed and incredibly impressed with the content and delivery.
As an RMT, it is so nice to see the thorough knowledge of anatomy that is taught. Can't wait to keep going!

Good quality videos and interesting content

Good quality videos and very interesting content. Alanna is great at guiding you through yoga philosophy and I really enjoyed the anatomy section. This is a great course if you want to know more about yoga and to help strengthen your own practice. I would still say anyone wanting to be a good yoga teacher would need to seek out practical training/mentoring, in real life, with real students but something like this is a great starting point to figure out if you want to take it further. It is a lot more professional then some other online yoga teacher training I have studied.

I have been very impressed with the kaivalya online course so far. There is so much information, and very easy to navigate around. With excellent Mentors that answer your queries quickly and are very helpful. I am only half way through the Anatomy Module so far, but this far I cannot fault the course and the teaching it is giving to me. I feel I will be fully able to teach a Yoga class, giving background information to my clients about Yoga, the Poses, Myths and Mantras. Whilst also delivering a safe class tailored to each of my clients individual needs and abilities.
Thank you so much for this Journey. X

Alanna Kaivalya Yoga teacher training…

Alanna Kaivalya Yoga teacher training courses are really amazing.
It is my first time doing this training and am loving the journey.
Course is really well organised and easy to follow.
I was a little sceptical at first about doing the 200 hour training online
but can honestly say I am really happy I chose this option.

Great online yoga training

I enjoyed my training with The Kaivalya Yoga Method. Alanna is so inspirational and the mentors provided great feedback on all assignments. My only suggestion is that they offer video examples or assignment examples for a model.

I gave 4 out of 5 as I would have liked someone to do a personalized reach out with me for expanding into what I am to become.
How are you doing goes a long way.
I’m also Leary as I’ve heard nothing but negative commentary regarding taking this training online as opposed to traditional. 500 hours is a lot to invest only to turn and face a crowd of poo poo ers. I want to make an extension of a living out of this and it’s almost seen as garbage because it’s online. Do you have a support group Facebook page?
