"Een fantastische ervaring"
Alle instructeurs waren gewoon fantastisch.
Verder was de accomodatie heel erg goed en dichtbij de studio en dichtbij het strand, dus heel fijn.
Het eten was ook geweldig, vers, gezond, gevarieerd en heerlijk.
En het strand was ook waanzinnig, we hebben gelukkig ook een aantal keren yoga op het strand kunnen doen.
En de andere deelnemers waren ook super leuk, we hebben het ondeling ook heel gezellig gehad.
En het contact verliep ook heel soepel, alles werd super snel en goed geregeld.

"It was better than I expected. Wonderful energy+people!"
I really enjoyed the schedule, though initially was challenging it has provided a great routine. The teachers have been over the top and have given me many aha moments. They bring the spiritually from the east to the west in an organic way, creating an environment of love, learning and sisterhood. Moreover, the god, accommodation and the location near praia da rocha round up the experience.

"December kado "
De veelzijdigheid van lessen, oefeningen en ervaringen zorgden elke dag voor een kleine of grote innerlijke wereldreis.
Hoe fijn ook om zo dicht bij of in de zee te zijn
De maaltijden bij Super Juice waren smaakvol, gezond en gezellig .
Het apartement ruim en netjes en de kleine wandeling naar shala was verkwikkend in de ochtend en landend in de middag

"BILB 200YTT"
The studio, the staff, the food, the beach were absolutely amazing. They were all so helpful and willing to share knowledge and support the students. If you are thinking of taking a YTT course….do I! I was also fortunate because we had a fantastic mix of students in our group and overall it was a great experience.

"Soul Nourishing, Thought Provoking, Transformational"
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.

"AMAZING"
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!

"Most amazing experience EVER"
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!

"100% recommended, the best RYT course in Europe!"
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

"Bad management - far from 200hours"
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.

"A life-changing experience in the best conditions"
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.

"Amazing YTT Experience"
I just completed the 15 day June YTT 200hr program and all I can say is WOW. Farrah has put together an amazing program. Prepare to be spiritually enlightened!
The curriculum is an excellent combination of various styles of yoga, practical understandings of anatomy and adjustments, spiritual practices such as pranayama and meditation, and a good variety of teaching techniques.
Our group in particular formed an amazing bond allowing for some serious emotional breakthroughs and learning opportunities.
I recommend this training for anyone looking to really learn the spiritual side of yoga!
The food from Super Juice was also AMAZINGGGGGGG.

It's hard to believe that two weeks would be so amazing, inspirational, and transformational. It started with 17 people I didn't know, and ended with 17 people who became family. Everything from the food, lessons, and excursions were organized very effectively and efficiently. I left with all the knowledge I need to begin teaching.
