"I just finished the classroom portion of my first Ayurveda Training (50 YAT) at Yoga Awareness with Tedd and Masumi. Most of the instruction comes from Tedd and he's is an excellent teacher. He is clear, honest, and mindful of the material he is presenting to you. It is presented in a way to give you an accurate understanding of Ayruveda, Yoga, and Sanskrit without...
Simple but deep. Anyone can feel life force, a beginner (if you do Yoga first time), intermediate level and yoga teacher too. You will discover your health and truth by yourself. I'm not hardy practice yogini (lazy one) so I regret before training, but I didn't have to think it. My exhausted body and mind get the Life force back. I can't thank Tedd and Masumi enough.

誰でも出来るのに本来のヨガを深く感じられます。初心者からヨガインストラクターまでどのレベルの方でも都度新しい発見が自分の中に起こるような体験は他のクラスでは中々感じられないかもしれません。...
I've attended Ayurveda three day classes in this summer. I've already had basic knowledge about Ayurveda through books, website and yoga teachers. However, Tedd had lectured us more deeper level of Ayurveda and enhanced my knowledge and I'm very happy that I could apply it in my daily life. - Mitsue Sannami -
アーユルヴェーダについては本やネットでの知識が少しあり、ヨガを練習しだしてから先生からも講習を受けた経験がありました。本格的な資格と知識を持ったテッド先生はどのような講習をされるのかとても興味があり受講を致しました。
東京でのトレーニング3日間基礎（6月）＆3日間アドヴァンス（11月）修了生の声です！ しっかりじっくりみっちり伝統的なヨガに触れることができた3日間の学びでした。 人の数だけその人のためのヨガがあるのだなあと実感できた時間でもありました。 大切なことは繰り返し、繰り返し根気強く伝えてくださり、動きの中で自分の中に落とし込んでいく。...
How can one be caring for others without caring for oneself properly? I've learned this and I'm so thankful I have. Establishing a personal practice with awareness and gentleness towards the self, over the years, like a tree growing throughout the seasons, it's given me what my youth was missing: faith, and the deep, sincere desire to help others on the same path. Thank you Tedd for being...
I arrived at my training with no expectations. I got there not really knowing if I was good enough to be a yoga teacher, if I could move properly, if I was really the right role model for a class of students! I arrived with fear, and left with a new found sense of self love and self confidence in myself. I can say from my...
Yoga Awareness devotedly offers fine, high-standards teachings of Yoga and Ayurveda. Their Teacher Trainings and Self Trainings are a rare opportunity in the Western World to connect with the lineage of Sri T. Krishnamacharya, and to sincerely commit to one's practice, enriching through self-awareness. My experience has been of deep transformation and inspiration, ever enlightened in this path of...
The training with Yoga Awareness is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself, and you can then share this precious gift with others. If you seek the true teachings of yoga and to delve into the depths of your higher self, I highly encourage you to grant yourself this blessing. Ted Surman is kind-hearted, genuine, compassionate and a phenomenal teacher!
"This last weeks teaching training would have to be the best training yet! Very smooth, efficient and organized. Ted's sharpness attention to detail and sense of humor made it all come together. I am very grateful and looking forward to what will come" ~ Bree
My Yoga teacher training at Yoga Awareness was exactly what I was seeking. Ted is a phenomenal teacher, during the entire time he was very clear, helpful, patient, and never moved on until we were all ready together to move forward onto the next step. He is with you every inch of the way and is a shining example of dedication. I am very blessed and privileged to have found such a pristine source...
