“I liked everything about this course. This is one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. I have learnt so much and have grown so much and have been opened up so much from this course. Michelle is such an amazing teacher. I have been so inspired to come into my own light and be my best through this course. The level of instruction was epic. The level of inspiration completely surpassed anything I had expected. Every second was mind, body and soul strengthening. Michelle enlights a level of inspiration in her students that is breathtaking. A complete and groundbreaking course that combines the innovation of Jivamukti, the sacredness of Bali and the tradition of India”. – Diana Charabin
“I liked absolutely everything about this course. I enrolled to learn more about yoga and to gain more physical fitness, the course far exceeded this. I enjoyed the intimate format, the asanas taught and the information provided on yoga. I really appreciated Michelle’s encouragement, one-on-one instruction and admired the way she encouraged individuality and worked at bonding the students”. – Jenny Smith
“I just loved this course! I loved the yoga and I loved the Pilates. I have learnt SO much. All effort was made to ensure we received all of Michelle’s knowledge – nothing was held back. There was constant encouragement and unlimited assistance to make sure we received all the information and guidance we required, Michelle was always there to answer our questions and help us in anyway, and continues to do so even now that the course has finished. I loved that we were pushed beyond our comfort zone. It was challenging, but you feel yourself improving so much and so quickly because of it. I have met so many wonderful people through this course and made some beautiful friends J”. – Radha Melis

Michelle is approachable, inspiring, real and supportive. The feedback given has been constructive and useful.

Yoga Level 2 Teacher Training
“I am very grateful to Essence Of Living, Level 2 Teacher Training for such a wonderful experience. The training not only exceeded my expectations but also challenged me physically, mentally and emotionally allowing me to open my mind to new possibilities and provided a nurturing space to grow and find a deeper connection with myself and my passion. This course gave me the necessary tools to develop my practice allowing it to evolve through hands on adjustment and advanced asana, fed my knowledge with in-depth philosophy and extensive sanskrit. Michelle Merrifield was inspiration throughout this journey.” – Laura Humphries
