What Our Students Say...
“I initially signed-up for these courses to supplement my 200-hour teacher training and improve my teaching and personal practice. After meeting Rod in-person at a local training, I was highly impressed with him and his knowledge, so decided to try one of his online courses to continue my study with him. The courses have been extremely comprehensive when it comes to techniques and philosophy, and Rod is engaging in his transmission of the content."
