I learnt lot of things, thanks! the teachers are lovable. I felt a lot of love and good energy! the content shared was great.

The connection to others all over the world and the wealth of inspiration and information

Wonderful place, beautiful and perfect guided detox retreat, individually ajusted lectures, classes in the beach, no questions let open

In an ideal world, I would have chosen my first 200 hours yoga teacher training in yin or restorative yoga, but having researched the market in Portugal, I opted for Bend it Like Buddha's 200 hours Ashtanga & Vinyasa, and Ayurvedic Massage because the timing coincided with my plans, and because I felt I needed to step outside of my comfort zone and really challenge the yogi within me.

What I found was that the emphasis on the philosophy and ethics of yoga was much broader than most other offerings. I also learnt a great deal about myself through the amazing meditation and asana practices.

Being in the Algarve, one of my favourite places in Portugal, changed my direction, my beliefs, and my view of the world. Learning to be a yoga teacher left me with a heightened respect for the universe. I am so grateful to have found Farrah, Danni, and Tori, each with their own style of teaching, which has left a profound impact.

The Flor da Rocha apartment, which I shared with one other student, was comfortable, spacious and clean, and I made full use of the spa facilities on site.

The food was in line with the yogic teachings of kindness to oneself and my surroundings, tasty and nourishing. Though, I did need snacks at times.

The people and the training made me feel free and comfortable to express and nurture myself. I am grateful to have had this life-changing experience.

Since returning home, I have maintained my meditation and yoga practice with renewed clarity.

I had an amazing time. The YTT was beyond my expectations. I have learned so much about yoga, its philosophy, Pranayama, Meditation, etc... the team is wonderful and focus. This teacher training was everything I needed to be confident to start teaching. I feel so grateful and blessed to have met so many wonderful and empowered women. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Namaste!

AMAZING experience. Perfect teachers, perfect location, perfect food! This teacher training was honestly a dream, I've learnt so much and made friends for life. The teachers were incredible, patient, so skilled and committed to helping us learn us much as possible. The location was incredible - right by the ocean, amazing caves - what better place to learn yoga?

Could not thank you enough, Farrah, Tori and Martyna! Wish I could do it all again! Ready to start teaching now!

Everything about this teacher training was incredible. All the readings that are meant to be completed prior to the training are super interesting and beneficial to the material that will be learned. Not doing the readings is only detrimental to yourself and your education. The readings help you further understand the poses, correct alignment, the yoga philosophy, anatomy, and pranayama practice. I loved all of the classes. We had two daily asana practices that were ashtanga and vinyasa. We also had anatomy, pranayama, meditation, adjustment and alignment, teaching practice, and massage class. Elvis and Anna provided amazing vegetarian meals at Super Juice every day. The location was beautiful and every teacher was so supportive, informative, and kind. This trip was worth every penny!

I absolutely recommend Bend it like a Budha. This course was a life- changing experience. I met an incredible group of empowered and lovely ladies. Farrah, Tori and Martyna were the most understanding, helpful and amazing teachers. They guide us through this journey with all the kindness and loving hearts. Accommodation, food, Yoga studio's location, classes and materials we're all fantastic and well organized. I will definitely repeat this experience again❤❤❤❤ Eilleen

The way the course was structured meant there was less anxiety around teaching the demo at the end.

Varied teachers and alternative views. Lots of hands on training opportunities to ensure you learn concepts.

The two excellent teachers for Vinyasa and Ashtanga, Danni Cullen and Mattia Michielan, where the only good thing in this TTC and the only reason me and some other students did not drive home directly.

Everyone was made to feel extremely welcome and included. The instructors all showed great patience, never ending knowledge and gave time for each and every one of the students (whom have all become friends for life!)

An amazing experience ❤️

I started this training only looking to deepen my own yoga practice, and left inspired to not only to teach others how to cultivate presence, mindfulness and self-love, but also to never stop learning and opening myself to new sides of yoga. The course was extremely complete, with a strong ashtanga or vinyasa practice in the morning, a different pranayama and meditation technique every day, thought-provoking philosophy classes taught by the Italian-Indian sage that is Mattia Michielan, and a softer asana practice in the evening. With this packed schedule, we also had time to get a massage certificate - in fact those massage hours in the afternoon were a welcome relief for sore muscles! We were taken care of the whole time, with beautiful, healthy meals prepared by the Super Juice team, so we had lots of energy and focus for our practice.

Danni and Mattia are incredible teachers. They Know what they are Talking about and they I learned so much from them.

The Food at the super juice Café was very good.

Un séjour inoubliable ! Des cours très intéressants et enrichissants tant au niveau physique que théorique. Les professeurs sont supers ouvertes et à l'écoute ce qui encourage les élèves à évoluer et à s'épanouir dans leur pratique.

The combination of health orientated, spiritual, cueing expert, tradition oriented teachers helped me to develop a great bride knowledge and were an amazing introduction. I met so many beautiful human beings and feel thankful for being empowered to give this great gift to others. One of the most rewarding things I did for myself so far!!

We had the best combination of a yoga teacher training, self-healing and the most wonderful was to see how each teacher brings their strengths in the class giving us the optimal experience. I just loved it!
