I just completed my 95hr Trauma-Informed Yoga for Kids & Teens with this organization and I couldn’t be happier! The experience was so enriching and I learned a lot about using trauma informed approaches in yoga. I am so grateful for the practitioners and their gentle lead in learning about my own privilege within yoga spaces. I couldn’t recommend this training enough! Once you take one course with them you become apart of the Canmore Yoga School community and it’s filled with the most genuine and beautiful humans!

Completed my 200 yoga teacher training with Canmore counselling and it changed my life. It was a balance between all 8 limbs of yoga and there was opportunity for listening, practicing and discussion. I learned so much from each of the facilitators. The course not only expanded my understanding of yoga and my teaching ability but was a life changing experience of personal growth. If you are looking for a yoga teacher training that is inclusive, trauma informed and incorporates all 8 limbs of yoga. Look no further then Canmore counselling.

Forever grateful for the learning and experiences offered to me through Canmore Counselling! As a psychotherapist and art therapist, the 200hr training program was incredibly helpful at deepening my understanding of the mind, heart, body and spirit. All of the instructors were brilliant, kind, and full of wisdom to share. I loved that the program prioritized all limbs of yoga, not just physical asana. Their commitment to inclusivity, cultural humility, and decolonizing the practice of yoga was strong throughout the entire program. Overall, this experience changed my personal and professional approach to life. Highly recommend Canmore Counselling! <3

Dr. Melissa and her team are the most wonderful! I attended the (online) 300 hr trauma informed yoga psychology school and never wanted to graduate only because our group had become so close; i didn’t want the deep and meaningful connections to ever fade. If you’re considering yoga teacher training as part of your path, I highly recommend all of the programs that Canmore Counselling offers because you will be changed and you will be the change in ALL areas of your life xo

Canmore Counselling & Trauma-Informed Yoga Psychology School is not yoga teacher training. It actually bastardizes the roots of yoga and colonizes It to fit its agenda. It does the exact opposite of what it professes to do. It is a one sided oppression based cult that barely touches on actual yoga. If you voice your thoughts as encouraged in the "sacred space agreement" you will be called out, and pushed out. I would not only NOT recommend this organization, I would suggest running away from it. Do not waste your money or your time. I would not even give it the one star needed to post this review.

Absolutely phenomenal!! Every service is provided with professionalism and delivered by highly skilled and experienced practitioners. I was lucky to complete my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher training, led by the incredible Dr. Melissa, and I can’t imagine having done it elsewhere. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
