Testimonial:
The 200-hour yoga teacher training program at Iceland Power Yoga had a profound effect on me as a person, yoga practitioner, parent and partner. The program is characterized by the sincere will and ambition of Alice and Inga to encourage the students to become better individuals, not just better yogis. I believe that the teacher training at Iceland Power Yoga is relevant to all those who are interested in their mental and physical health, but not least for those who want to approach fellow human beings in life with increased unconditional understanding and love."
