"I feel that I need to send you a short note to say how much I LOVED the workshop! I am SO inspired and motivated. Also, I am loving the YTT classes and wanted to let you know what an inspiration you are and how much you have allowed me to open my heart. It is incredible to see how much I have grown in such a short amount of time."

"Thank-you for the most powerful, safe, loving, and supportive learning environment I have ever experienced. You are an awesome person and teacher. Taking this YTT is better than winning the megabucks! It has enhanced my life by leaps & bounds.
Having taken yoga classes with Joyce Kendall, instructor of the program, I knew it would be good. It was better than good; it was everything I had anticipated and so much more. I would highly recommend this program.
On the unpaved road of my life's journey, I have & still am learning to embrace the potholes and flat tires of life as well as the joys. I have a wall hanging that says: Faith makes all things possible not easy. I have had a life changing experience. I even miss doing the homework!
Joyce ... Thank-you! It was "beautiful". Look forward to more." Om Shanti Om Love & peace to All

"Earth Heart Yoga Teacher Training begins with a heart-felt approach to learning and ends with a heart-filled wealth of knowledge, skill and a desire to learn more. The benefits were too many to count; the instruction was superb! "

"Just taught a candle-making class where the kids start out crying “I can’t do that,” and then glow with amazement when, within the space of an hour, they discover that they have done it. Now, they can’t wait to do it again!
All that to say thank you so much for guiding me through my own resistances and for all the programs that you offer and sustain. While it seems easy to feel and focus on what’s so hard or challenging at this point in the YTT program, I’m also having many great, good feelings and experiences that far outweigh the challenges. Teaching is often such a brave and thankless journey, yet it can be so rewarding to light a candle in the darkness. You’re an awesome lighter-upper!"
paz e amor,

"I am completely amazed and in awe every time we gather of what we accomplish together and separately. I'm reflecting a lot on our journey together as well as my own personal journey that has truly ROCKED!!! One of the most profound if not the most profound spiritual growths I have ever experienced in my life."
"I want to truly thank you from the bottom of my hugely opened heart for being the guide on my beautiful journey to finding my light, opening to Grace and growing bigger and better than I ever thought of becoming. I have found an abundance of courage, trust, love, acceptance, joy, bliss and peace during my journey with you. You truly are a beautiful channel for the flow and sharing of Grace. Oh, and I learned how to teach yoga too! :)
I humbly thank you! "

"Originally, I wanted to join the program to develop my personal spiritual growth and practice. I found so much more.
This program has changed my life is many ways. Not only do I have a strong and centered personal practice, I am completely devoted to the style, to my instructors, and to my fellow yogis who were also in the program. My heart has expanded in ways that I didn't know it could... and I can share this beautiful expansion with the many who walk in my everyday life. All the contemplations, readings, effort, and time have given me a solid foundation to move further in my personal journey.
And Joyce, I feel blessed to have such a treasure guiding my practice and teaching. I can't wait for YTT #2! "

"Joyce's program has completely blown my doors off with her beautiful, systematic delivery of consciousness. She is an amazing guide; her training is thorough while leaving plenty of room for individual expression and creativity. She has enabled my soul to unfold and given me the courage and tools to do the same for others."

“Joyce’s Earth Heart Yoga YTT program has helped me become a better yoga student inside and out. The readings and assignments, along with excellent instruction by Joyce and visiting speakers, have shown me that to be a good yoga instructor you need to listen to yourself and soften your heart.”

“Earth Heart Yoga’s teacher training certification program is an incredible local opportunity to become a very knowledgeable yoga instructor. I have experienced more enlightenment, that has led to self growth, over the duration of this course than I ever thought possible.
When I entered into the program, I was merely a beginner with a profound desire to teach. I had very little yoga experience, in fact, I didn’t even know the meaning behind sounding ‘OM’, so don’t let inexperience hold you back. I have been very pleased with the quality of instruction that I have received from the various experts who have contributed their knowledge to the program.
The curriculum is extremely challenging and time consuming, but well planned and geared toward turning out great instructors. If you are interested in teaching yoga, or simply want to deepen your understanding of the practice, then I highly recommend signing up for this course.”

"I am still glowing as a result of this past weekend's beginning to the YTT program. I have been filled with anticipation and eagerness to begin, knowing it would be a fabulous journey and yet I am overwhelmed with the depth of the lessons learned already - both spiritually and physically!
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful gifts with us (the teachings, the hands-on trainings, the role-modeling, etc.), and for the undeniable light that just radiates from you. I know this is meant to be a life changing process for me, and I humbly and eagerly embrace the journey ahead.
A few months later… I am already beginning to have "withdrawal symptoms" as the end of our course approaches!!!! What a life-changing and life-enhancing journey this is! I have learned so much and look forward to staying totally immersed in the learning process as I go forward."

"Following each weekend I find myself so grateful and just wanting to give thanks. Each weekend is a wonderful, full experience and always feels like what I need; I get to ‘plug in and charge up’. I typically leave feeling good and inspired; I look forward to each session.
I want to thank Joyce for all the gifts that she brings to us. I feel honored to have such a wonderful teacher for this powerful process."

"Two times the anticipated effort, ten times the expected rewards. That is the best way I can describe the experience of Yoga Teacher Training with Joyce Kendall at Earth Heart Yoga. If you have ever considered a path toward teaching yoga, take the heart journey with Joyce and find out so much more about yoga and yourself. And enjoy!!! "
