"The RPYT with Summer totally exceeded my expectations. Everything was in its place, there wasn’t too much or little of anything. The balance of this experience showed the deep thought and preparation this School puts into leading their students through meaningful yoga studies. I didn’t feel confident at first at all, but now I know I can help women with their health through Yoga.

Summer is one of the sincerest teachers I’ve ever met! I didn’t feel any judgment from her, not even once. She was just so free in the role, and it always felt like she was just being herself. I was inspired by this every day, it helped me to be myself as well. She really showed me how to build so much new confidence in myself. Her teaching skills are great- always engaging and calm. I couldn’t have asked for a better yoga teacher.

The most impressive thing for me was my ability to live in the moment. I’ve always struggled with that, but here I had no problem with it. I really feel how I’m so much more in harmony with myself and the nature after working with Elemental Yoga. I feel that I found my balance. These were the most powerful yoga classes I’ve had in my life.

It's just phenomenal how much this course has changed me. I thought “I'll just go to a training, do some yoga, learn about pregnancy and giving birth” but it has been truly life changing. I've done many different therapies in my life, but never has the effect been so deep. I had no expectations on that level, yet I healed so much. Elemental yoga is just THAT powerful."

"A fantastic opportunity to connect to myself, to the nature, to the lovely baby that is growing up inside my belly. I felt I could be myself, welcomed like I am. With respect and such generosity, Summer created a calm healing space and I felt always welcomed with my questions and doubts.

Practicing yoga in such beautiful nature, with respectful and open people, has been a really wonderful experience. More than just a peaceful time to be with myself, but to also meet and share it with inspiring people, all gathering our energies to learn together, to grow together. I really enjoyed the simplicity of the sequences we did. The perfect balance between deep and safe. I feel capable of leading classes in pre-natal yoga through this course. Thank you, Summer."

"This comprehensive 85 HR Elemental Pre-Natal Yoga Teacher Training course integrates skillfully the 5 Elements principles with the essential understanding and knowledge of Pre-natal Yoga practice and teaching.

I personally appreciate the quality of Summers teaching, which was a well-balanced way of teaching both theoretical ideas and practical skills. I feel like I learned through my experience as much as the lectures within the theory lectures. I loved that approach. I can take this very valuable knowledge and understanding of 5 Element Pre-natal Yoga into a new way of working with women and Yoga.

Summers groundedness and openness creates a space in which every student has the freedom to discover and develop skills within their own capacity. This allows a higher experience for all the students and a more holistic learning curve.

As a teacher, Summer is inherently a very calm, loving and grounded person. She has a vibrant spirit and can be as playful as a child. These aspects of her personality allow her to transmit her knowledge with love and incredible honesty – there’s no ego barriers between her and her students. This creates a very unique shared space of easiness and playfulness that enable students to feel welcoming and open and make them drop their resistances early and easily. A great teacher."

"This was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. The aerial mountain setting was a perfect environment to help us connect with each element and helped me work with myself and push myself.

The structure of the course not only helped me connect and work on myself with the help of each element, but it also provided an optimum learning environment. Without having a formal teacher training background, I was able to put the training to good use, gain a lot of confidence and in the end deliver a class totally connected to myself and without any inhibitions.

Before I came here, I had the belief that I wasn’t ready to be a teacher and this experience with Summer slowly helped me peal all those layers away and find that light. To have achieved this in such a short time is just miraculous. I thoroughly enjoyed learning Prenatal Yoga with Summer. Her understanding of Prenatal issues seen from an elemental experience was fascinating and I will take a lot away for myself. The knowledge shared was shared at a digestible level and covered all the important aspects of pregnancy in harmony with many other interesting concepts about women’s health"

"This training is the perfect way to learn how to teach Prenatal Yoga. It covers all the fundamental aspects that any yoga teacher should know while practicing with pregnant women (anatomy, general conditions/issues, physical and psychological changes…), but keeping the focus on the most important: the power of the 5 Elements. The healing that the elements can give to the body and how this can help a Mother to connect with her Child on a deeper level.

Summer’s way of teaching shows all her experience of elemental yoga and lifestyle. The whole training reflects this knowledge applied to such a delicate and sacred moment of a woman’s life. Every word she says comes from her heart and the deep connection she has with herself as a woman, completely aware of her feminine power and wisdom. She empowers women to be themselves, before being a good yoga teacher, and to get connected with their inner nature."

"Right from the beginning I knew I was in the right place. The teaching, the girls in the group, the stunning location, it all felt just wonderful. The teaching Summer shared on Prenatal Yoga was structured in a way that I could get the most from every moment, along with the theory of the 5 Elements and the philosophy of Elemental Yoga which took me deeper into the whole training. The balance Summer found between teaching and sharing was perfect for me."

"I really gained more than I expected from this training, and I feel that I can take my teaching deeper into women’s health and the needs of pregnant women with Yoga. Summer has thought this course through very deeply and offered a unique perspective on her subjects. It’s a one of a kind training and I can recommend it all at all the levels you would seek in a live in, catered training immersion. An excellent experience."

"I loved learning about pre-natal yoga and the ways that yoga can be adapted to care for yourself, a baby and your inner child. The course integrated the elements beautifully and focused on empowering women to view their pregnancy positively. I enjoyed the practical classes and coming up with creative ideas to benefit mothers and hold space during this sacred time in their lives.
Summers teaching was informative and engaging. Her gentle delivery and thoughtful presentation of the course was clear in every practice. I appreciated Summers classes, the time she took to discuss creative ideas with me and how much she cares for women."

"The pre-natal course brought me closer to myself as a woman and what I learned I feel I can apply to much more than pregnancy. It's amazing to be able to offer yoga to a woman going through such a life-changing transition. And I feel comfort in knowing that I can work to bring new life into this world in such a connected holistic way.

Summer brought a soft yet strong feminine spirit to the course, Though she may seem soft - she knows how to teach you through a challenging class. Summer has a genuine grace to her that's really wonderful to be around and I loved connecting with her during the Training."

"My experience in the Elemental Pre-Natal Yoga Course has been a way to discover myself in another perspective. It was a great mix of study concepts and indulging in the feminine energies, sharing feelings about woman's explorations and how to use Yoga in a way that supports life-bearing and ritual connection. It was very interesting the way Summer taught us, because I started to realize how strongly connected the Elements are with pregnancy and I can't imagine a Pre-Natal Course without them. All the subjects are covered and she also introduces new ideas that in my opinion are needed in society that we live in. Society is slowly losing this sense of nourishment and gentleness that pregnancy and child bearing deserves.
Summers teaching is beautifully delivered. Her simplicity and her own connection to yoga proves that the key or reality of a successful yoga practice is to be pure, to teach from your heart. The way she creates a calm and peaceful atmosphere makes enjoyable practices where you have a great opportunity to connect with yourself and really explore. Therefore, the outcome is clear: you walk out with a peaceful, compassionate feeling to share with the world"

"I loved the Pre-Natal Yoga course. I understand pregnancy and what a woman goes though when creating life in a much deeper way. My compassion and connection to that process is on a whole other level than before taking this course and I'm truly excited to get the opportunity to work with pregnant women, helping them through their experience. Through these classes I also understand how to modify and adapt classes to the needs of not only pregnant women, but any people who may need alternatives to normal yoga Asanas.

I loved Summer's gentle, feminine approach to teaching that was also strong and informative. She was engaging, approachable, knowledgeable and passionate. Having the opportunity to learn Pre-Natal Yoga was such a gift and Summer shared it wonderfully!"

"This course was really a great experience and exceeded my expectations. As a woman taking the course, the way Summers ideas connected me into my body was really valuable to go through. The elements working with Pre-Natal Yoga was intuitive and really enriched my understanding, providing a reliable framework for how to care for someone going through their pregnancy.
Summer's teaching is graceful. I really connected to her energy and classes. Her prenatal insights and connection to feminine energy guided me to my own relationship to those concepts. She's an authentic and very effective teacher."

"The Pre-Natal Yoga course was a surprising journey. I am grateful to have had this opportunity to study in this way and to learn more about the sacredness of Women and Womb. I feel more connected to this part of myself. I have learned a lot and look forward to empowering women and connecting them to their own inner feminine qualities.
Summer is amazing. You can feel her heart through her teaching. She held the space beautifully and I could feel the love to share her knowledge of prenatal yoga. She understands the sacredness of the divined feminine part of ourselves and the magic of creation."

"I really enjoyed the pre-natal course, especially the Partner Yoga. The lectures were always interesting, helpful and well informed for the many changes that Yoga can support within the 3 trimesters. I feel confident in myself that I know the adaptions to make and I could teach a beginners' pregnancy yoga class.
I really enjoyed the way Summer teaches, she has such a sincere way to share ideas which makes you want to absorb and learn from her. Summer is very approachable. You can see the passion in her when she is teaching."

"Having spent my life balancing male and female energies within myself, coming to Summers Pregnancy Yoga let me know deeper how to work with Mother Earth's beautiful energies. Summers gentle spirit brings out the gentle and soft within you, making you feel safe and in good hands. I would without a doubt entrust Summer to teach my wife and child Elemental yoga. A Wonderful teacher."

"This course was really fun! Pregnanacy Yoga, Partner Yoga, even Chair Yoga. In the beginning, I thought the ideas were really just for pregnant women, before and after childbirth, but Summer used the space to show how you can use Prenatal yoga concepts with old or physically limited people.
I'm grateful that she was willing to spend time with me to explain the things I was confused with when my English didn't quite work!"
