An altogether wonderful experience

I attend a Mindfulness Now teacher training course with Rachel and Tony in Manchester. The course was designed to deepen my understanding of mindfulness while honing my teaching skills. I found the whole experience very rewarding. Rachel and Tony's teaching styles were encouraging and 'trauma informed.' It was just a lovely environment to be in. Since attending the course and completing my assessment, I have felt that I have truly grown as a person, embodied the mindfulness attitudes and I am now in a position to pass on the benefits of mindfulness to others. Thank you so much to Mindfulness Now for helping me realise my purpose!

Most fulfilling online course I've ever enrolled on

From start to finish, the whole course was a joy. I've never known a day online to go so fast. The tutors were experts in their field and could hold all course students with a lightness, respect and wisdom that I was in awe of. Highly recommend.

What an amazing course

Wow! Mindfulness Now a great course run by such lovely instructors. I found Zoom as a platform for the main course body worked really well especially the use of breakout rooms. The course was a good pace and the timings of the breaks .
It felt a safe place where we got a chance to ask questions and give feedback with no pressure. We met so many likewise students from all different backgrounds even across the globe, yet still felt a connection to everyone. We came away with a super ongoing network and support group. Thank you

Mindfulness Now in Devon - Fantastic!

Having just done the Mindfulness Now teacher training course in Devon, I would thoroughly recommend the course. The trainers, Nick and Maddy, are very experienced and taught the course with wisdom and kindness. The teaching is interesting and varied, with theory, stories, poems, meditations, and mindful movement. We worked in pairs and in small groups as well as in the main the group of 15. The course covers teaching mindfulness to individuals or groups, whether in school, in the community, online or in corporate world. I came along unsure as to whether I would actually follow through and teach mindfulness, but I’m definitely going to now and I’m really excited about it.

It was an incredible experience. The course is very well structured and Rachel is incredibly knowledgeable and nice as she creates a very nurturing space. The material we are given is extremely well formulated and helpful. I am very glad I took this course!

Rachel was a wonderful teacher trainer, highly recommended!

Rachel was a wonderful, warm teacher trainer and made us all feel very welcome, grounded and listened to over the course of the training week. Likewise, Tony was fantastic when he joined and they really complemented each others' teaching styles.

The course was really well structured and had the right balance of practical vocational training and learning. There was a lot of content to cover but the pacing felt full and engaging without being overwhelming.

On a personal note, the whole week was such a wonderful experience connecting with the other trainees, people from all walks of life, and was truly transformative and profound at times. Likewise completing the assessment was really enjoyable and the whole course has deepened my own practice and understanding tremendously. Highly recommended!

Mindfulness Now Teacher Training, Manchester

I can’t explain how much I got from my training week in Manchester - it has changed so much about the way I see my life for the better! Rachel was extremely supportive and an inspiration, as was Tony.
I’d recommend to anyone who is considering this course. Book it - you won’t regret it.

Amazing Mindfulness Now course

I have recently completed the mindfulness course in Manchester. What an amazing course for its content and for my experience. It was taught in an incredibly supportive way full of content and practical experience. Truly one of the best courses I have ever experienced at a time in my life when I thought I maybe wouldn’t find learning so much fun anymore. I can’t wait to use my new qualification and help others see how amazing the tool of
Mindfulness is. Thank you to Rachel McKenna for being an inspirational teacher.

Outstanding training

Outstanding training. The week with Maddy, Nick and the other traininers was incredibly enriching. The sessions were well-organised with lots of opportunities to learn from peers as well as interact with the teaching team. There is incredible support from the team, with lots of material provided to support learning. It was an immensely rewarding week, I can't thank the Mindfulness Now team enough.

Mindfulness Teacher Training Course

From first contact, through to the training week and now, everyone from the College has been friendly, supportive and inclusive. The online training is well structured and in the time available, most of the 8 week mindful course is included. Good opportunities to practice with fellow 'classmates', ask questions, sit in meditation, and take part in mindful movement. It's been a fabulous experience.

Brilliant course

Brilliant course, engaging and learnt ALOT. I currently teach mindfulness to adults and children but have walked away with further knowledge and lots of new ideas, adapting my teaching style. Maddy & Nick were supportive, sensitive to subjects and AMAZING.

I’m week 5 of an 8 week mindfulness…

I’m week 5 of an 8 week mindfulness course and have been trying to contact the institute via the online learning platform, since week 4, I have not been receiving the emails with links to the meditations and they are not available on the learning platform. I have emailed several times and left a voice message and have had not response? I’m a single mum and I am trying to develop myself and feel like I have had no support whatsoever - would love it if someone would contact me and put my mind at ease that I have not been duped!

Hi GG,
We are The UK College of Mindfulness Meditation and run a 5 day Mindfulness Now Teacher Training course. We don't offer the type course you have described in your review. We don't even have an online learning platform for an 8-week programme. Can we please have more information about where/what company you actually signed up for the course that you describe so we can hopefully clear this up and help point you in the right direction to make a complaint? We are happy to chat any time on the phone if this helps, please contact the college via the main website. Hope this can be resolved quickly for you!
All good wishes,
The Team at Mindfulness Now

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 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.
