Emily is 'Embodied Flow'. She walks her talk and it shows in every class. She honors her intrinsic divine intuition, she is authentic in her communication, and lets each class organically unfold.... based off of the energy, vibration, frequency of the collective.

Jane, New Zealand

Attending Emily Kuser's Teacher Training felt like spending a month at “life school” … in the best way possible. Emily lives her Yoga – her offering is rigorous and of the highest quality, but also playful and refreshingly authentic. In other words, it’s a lot of fun! I learned so much about all aspects of Yoga and, in the process, about myself. I now feel empowered and excited to apply what I have learned to my daily life, and share it with the world! 

Chloe, Australia

This is a magnificent, challenging and inspiring experience – I feel so fortunate to have been able to attend Emily Kuser YTT and to take the vibrancy and learning with me into my goals for the future. Thank you Emily and all!

Dalia, Switzerland

The first day I learned how to stand properly on my feet in Tadasana. Nothing really mind blowing. Looking back, I could not have imagined where this simple instruction would lead me to. This YTT keeps its promise. It will take you directly to the place where true learning happens, that lies beyond your comfort zone. To me the most authentic teachings come from the heart. So if you want to learn how to teach from your heart you first need to dive into your own experiences and challenges. If that is what you are looking for, then I highly suggest this YTT.

Julia, Germany

I always considered myself an open, yet slightly skeptical human being. So naturally when I read on the Emily Kuser's website that the course would challenge insecurities, inspire incredible self-esteem and transform my ability to feel connected to yourself and to others, I was intrigued and incredulous at the same time. I think I did not really believe all this was possible in a month’s time. But I was willing to give it a try. And I am so grateful I did. I felt how my heart opened up more and more each day. How I could let a new found sense of authenticity in and shed off a lot of the feelings about not being good enough – for being a yoga teacher first and foremost. It all happened in a wonderful environment, supported by great teachers. I can wholeheartedly recommend this training to anyone who’s willing to dig a little bit deeper and to be gently pushed out of their comfort zones.

Vanessa, UK

As soon as I saw Emily’s course I knew right away this is the only course I needed to do right now in my life. I didn’t even look elsewhere because the energy I got from it was so strong. A part of me knew this would be a life changing experience and I was absolutely right! We had the most amazing teachers and we were well taken care of. The modules were diverse and incredibly interesting. It sparked so much inspiration within me! I came to this course wanting to transform my fear of speaking in front of a group of people and I sure did. I also wanted to heal my disconnection with others, and feel like I belonged here on this Earth. Here at  Emily Kuser, I was able to meet my kula, the most amazing group of people you’d ever meet. I have yearned for a community all my life and I found them here. When you come on to this course together, you form an unspoken bond and connection to everyone. It was absolutely amazing to witness the transformation we all went through in our own ways. This is not just a yoga course, this is a life course. Be prepared for transformation and change, and know that there will be ups and downs. If you’re open to it, you will have the most amazing journey of your life.

Carla, Ireland

Emily Kuser is the best thing I have ever done and experienced. it is my greatest and most proudest achievement. Emily Kuser teacher training has enabled me to grow at an amazing speed, to heal pain and be able to dream again. I feel so empowered by this course and it is the best experience I have ever had to date.

Louisa, Denmark

Yoga is so much more than asanas – and this training offers an opportunity for exploring various aspects of yoga in a very supportive environment with inspiring, loving and wise teachers. Not only has it taken my practice to a new level, it has also allowed me to reconnect with a part of myself that I have neglected for years. It has been an amazing roller coaster ride and I would do it all over again

Sophie, UK

I’ve laughed, I’ve cried, I’ve danced and sang like I never thought I would and never felt more live. I didn’t think I needed this training as much as I did – and I knew somewhat I was letting myself in for having met Emily before. This training will teach you how to truly care for yourself, teach you how to love yourself. How to be you. We all think we know what we want, we have goals, we go out there in the western world and try so hard to get them. Until this training I never thought that there was such a thing as “trying to hard”. We’re so busy in this crazy western world that we don’t even lift our head up for a second. We don’t breath. We don’t know our bodies and we don’t appreciate the power of a community. Conditioned to look after only those closest to us. You’ll feel the power of community and be opened up to the diversity that is life. If one things for sure, your life will never be the same again. Emily is one of the most wonderful women I have ever met. I took one of her classes whilst traveling in Ubud two years ago and came out of the class in tears. I’d never felt this much companion, love and care from an absolute stranger. After that I vowed I’d be back to train with her and thats exactly what I did. Thank you Emily & co & the Kula. I’m so happy to have shared this experience with such incredible individuals. You’ve all been my teachers in some way shape or form. You’ve opened up and showed me doors that I didn’t even know existed. I’ll forever be grateful.

Maria, US

Why Emily Kuser Yoga? I simply can’t describe it in one review. Certainly, it transforms your life, but I’m still not sure how. You just not the same as you used to be. Maybe it cultivates self-love and acceptance? Or maybe for the month I have been in Shala I have learned compassion all teachers have shared with us? I’m still processing my experience… The biggest things I will be carrying out from the training is the realization that all the answers are within me and second, I want to be “turned on” by every minute of my life. Thank you Emily and all the Teachers for making a difference! 🙂

Rachel, AU

It is a game changer! Prepare to take down patterns you have had and rebuild more sustainable ones. I feel like my spiritual journey has just begun!

Kim, Germany

Be ready for some big changes inside yourself, changes for the better. Emily always said “Yoga will ruin your life as you know it.” It definitely ruined my inner life. My inner life of thinking that I am not good enough, that my voice is not worth being heard, that I need to change my body and be something different from what I am already, that I am alone with my thoughts and issues, that I am NOT ENOUGH! The tools and practices she and all the other awesome teachers share are infinitely valuable. They are so down to earth, applicable and validated by their personal experiences and experiments. The teachers don’t dictate knowledge on you but rather let you FEEL EVERYTHING. They are an embodiment of wisdom and share all of it with you through practical exercises and I didn’t realize how MUCH I have learned until I taught at the end and it was fun and I enjoyed it and I felt so free to share my voice, my thoughts and ideas. It is an amazing feeling! I feel so much more like myself now and I have learned so many tools that I can´t wait to share with the world!

Jamie, AU

There are so many reasons that I would recommend this course that I don’t know where to begin. I’ve put off writing a review for a week because I didn’t know where to start and how to answer this concisely when I have a Emily Kuser hurricane still roaring in my head! Early on in the course, Emily laughingly said “yoga will ruin your life as you know it” and I felt so uneasy with this because I already knew how powerful the teacher training process would be before I even knew what it involved, and that was being confirmed! I also knew from the experience of educating myself that once you learn something big you can’t unlearn it! The most powerful thing I cultivated was a deep, loving, connection with myself. Who my authentic self is when you peel away the layers and influences of upbringing, education, cultural conditioning, religion etc. I have a stronger sense of self and I know how to keep it blooming now that I’ve integrated back into my life; through meditation, asana, pranayama and mantra. I have so many tools up my sleeve for living life because I took a month to go on the crazy journey of self care that is yoga. I met beautiful, diverse people from all over the world and learnt the depths that connection can be. It turns out how long you know someone means nothing compared to how deeply you connect. I know I’ve made some lifelong friends. Ubud, The Yoga Barn and Balinese people, my goodness the best combination of surrounds you could hope for on this journey. The teachers are all amazing rebels! Emily was incredibly generous to have such a diverse faculty of teachers that shared a wealth of knowledge and wisdom. My horizons have been so broadened, and to top it off I became a yoga teacher!

Betsy, AU

Emily Kuser is a great 200 hr training which exceeded my expectations in many ways. The community that Emily creates and the people she brings together are one-of-a-kind and made my experience better than I could ever imagine. Emily is an excellent teacher and yogini. Her views on yoga, self-care and women really resonated with me because she keeps it so real and pure. I would highly recommend this training to ANYONE looking at becoming a teacher or just deepening their practice.

Shelby, US

Whoa. So, that was a mindblowing experience! I thought I was just coming to learn a bunch of yoga poses! Instead, it has been a joyous, painful, and awakening journey inwards. Yes, I learned a lot about asana as well, and feel prepared to teach a yoga class (or meditation or mantra for that matter), but this time was far more than I ever expected. Emily’s positive energy is contagious, and her authenticity invites people to grow in ways they didn’t expect. The teachers she brings in for the other modules are spectacular – I overlooked them when singing up, but they make each part of the training come alive. Thank you, Emily, for this awesome experience.

Kirsty, Canada

People hope their YTT will be life changing. They often don’t know how, or why, but it seems to be the common desired outcome. This training will crack you open in the most gentle way, and then tenderly and carefully and with such love, piece you back together. You’ll leave as a stronger, more resilient, more beautiful version of yourself.

Gabrielle, Australia

This training far surpassed my expectations or indeed anything I had wished for. It synthesizes all the elements of yogic practice into a wonderful tapestry of experience that opened my heart, mind, and body. Impeccable teaching and an exceptional attendance to growth and empowerment were the order of the day. I could not speak more highly of this training. Recommended without question. Thank you Emily Kuser!

Gabrielle, Australia

Shaken, stirred, stretched and loved every minute! Emily and the visiting teachers offer something truly special, unique and life changing. The training was complete nourishment in every sense of the word. Highly, highly recommend.

Maya, USA

Emily Kuser Yoga is absolutely one of a kind! Emily Kuser makes yoga accessible to everybody while still maintaining the integrity of the practice. There is no room for a gimmick at Emily Kuser. Emily Kuser represents and innovative, authentic, fun, and exciting approach to teaching yoga.

Kristin, Germany

I just complete the 200hrs Yoga Teacher Training with Emily and it was just amazing. The whole group of 30 people connected deeply and we learned from a vary of great teachers. It doesn’t matter if you plan to teach or just do this training for yourself, it was an eye opening experience because we learned much about ourselves as well as all areas of yoga. During the 28 days we gained a deep understanding of anatomy, Ayurveda and yoga philosophy in our courses and had a ongoing asana, meditation and pranayama and mantra practice. It was so great, I wish I could do it again!

Fatou, France

I attended the Emily Kuser YTT in July 2016, it was a four-week refreshing and inspiring moment. The Emily Kuser team (Emily, Bess and Mei Lai) beautifully organised and conducted the sessions. Furthermore, prominent figures, Mark Holzman, Carlos Pomeda and Rachel Ellerly, highly valued within yoga world taught classes of yoga/ayurveda, yoga philosophy and anatomy respectively. This gave a priceless added value to the course, it provided so much context and content to an already rich programme. I would totally recommend the training to those wanted to learn more than asanas, ready to challenge themselves, open their heart, share their emotions, develop awareness and start seeing the glass half full… Be prepared to laugh, cry, scream, love, sing, fall, dance, breath, yield, prop, collapse and most importantly grow while enjoying every single moment. A lot of food for thought.

Kerri, Australia

Training with Emily Kuser was honestly life changing – so many insights and self contemplation – but to be surrounded by caring and supportive classmates and teachers made it all so much easier! The way Emily teaches is so beautiful – you can tell it is intuitively thought out, and worked around how we, the class may have been feeling that day. Thank you so much Emily, this course is so valuable, I’ll be telling everyone about it.

Marie, France

One of the best experience in my life ever ! I came with a goal : practice yoga everyday for one month – and with a lot of wonderings too. I went out not only with my Yoga Teacher Certificate but also with a clear mind about the path to follow in my life. Excellent yoga teachings and a great opportunity for a deep introspection as well. Thank you to Emily and other teachers for their professionalism and passion.

Ben, France

A very unique teacher training, given by open hearted, dedicated people. It open my eyes on the diversity of the yoga world, on how the same intention can be carried via so many different paths. And also that from there I was free to choose my own, the one that enables me to be who I am. Feeling supported in your journey, you can take a deep dive into your practice, refine it, feel it… take a deep dive into yourself to know you a bit better, day after day after day. Thank you all for sharing your beautiful energy, your experience, your knowledge, your love.

Krista, USA

The Emily Kuser experience was everything I was looking for an more. If you’re looking for a deeper meaning to your Adana practice… Emily Kuser is the way to go. Emily as well as all the other teachers are beautiful souls and really know how to hold the space for you learn and grow. If I could do it all over again I would choose Emily Kuser over and over. Thank you so much for everything!!!

Shena, Singapore

Emily Kuser is love. Pure, pure love. We laugh, we dance, we cry, we fall and we stand up taller with our hearts full of grace and love. A traveler I met on the road asked what is the best gift I’ve given myself so far. This training is it. For sure we have learned how to be a teacher & student on the mat, but more so precious are the experiences of peeling away layers to reach closer to our truth, accepting and celebrating the changes that these truths will bring. I only have love and gratitude for this shift that’s just beginning.

Rani, Australia

Words wouldn’t be enough to describe the personal, spiritual transformation that Emily Kuser gave to me. Although I can say if you want to be shaken up out of your current self, life path etc and have the desire for meaning, purpose, joy and LOVE for the self and world around you, this course peels back everything that we build up as humans doing… and creates a human -being. The journey is colorful, intensely rich in personal growth, profound insights and births new spiritual yet very practical ways of why being in the world with more love, kindness, awareness really matters. If your open to be opened in ways you couldn’t imagine I highly recommend you take the journey with Emily and Team 🙂

Anne, Denmark

I bow to you, Emily. What you have created is beyond words. Emily Kuser is a felt sense of love, acceptance and respect – for ourselves, each other, and the earth that constantly supports us in every aspect of our lives. Emily Kuser is an invitation to embrace the unknown, to dare to be vulnerable, to yield into our surroundings and to allow ourselves to follow what we already know; the voice of our intuition. You have my deepest respect and eternal gratitude. Love to you, Tara, Andrea, Scott, and my beloved kula.

Annique, Australia/USA

I have left Emily Kuser on literally that, a higher vibe. I was expecting the come down to be pretty harsh after arriving home from such an intense and amazing month, but to be honest 2 months later it hasn’t actually happened yet. The experience has changed me as a person for the better, my heart is bigger and my path forward seems brighter. I am eternally grateful to Emily and the teachers for creating such an extraordinary experience.

Selene, Germany

Why I would recommend Emily Kuser is because of the simple fact that everything is handled with so much sensitivity and love. Emily Kuser creates so much freedom in the training, that you can evolve and be guided by a higher source. There are enough teachings around the world, but learning to sense and truly feel Yoga/Life is in my opinion a true training. That’s why I would recommend Emily Kuser – if you want to go back to simplicity, clarity and reality.

Jenna, Canada

The Emily Kuser Yoga Teacher Training is the start of an amazing journey. It’s an experience I think everyone should have, whether you want to be a yoga teacher or not. Emily, Tara, Andrea and Scott are the best group of teachers you could ever ask for. So knowledgeable, and so very passionate about what they’re teaching. The schedule is intense, not a minute goes by where you’re not learning or experiencing something. You will meet a tonne of new friends. There will be many highs and a few lows. It will take you so far out of your comfort zone, you won’t remember what it was like – but you will be a much stronger person after. And man will you laugh, and laugh and laugh… highly recommended.

Jesse, Australia

My experience at Emily Kuser was of love. I was opened very much to myself. Never before have I felt so at home.

Asa, Iceland

This was the most amazing time of my life. Even though I was already a 200 hour certified yoga teacher when I started I learned so much. I got to know myself better and dive deeper into every part of my yoga practice. Each teacher brought in their own energy and they were all so informative and so good at what they do. I learned so much from each of them. The Emily Kuser training has made me a better person and will for sure make me a better yoga teacher.

Natalia, UAE

My decision to come to Bali for this training was one of the best in my life. The experience from day one was life changing full of self discovery, development and knowledge. Emily is the best teacher I’ve met so far and I’m so grateful for all amazing insights she shared with us during the training. The entire month is designed to challenge you to be out of comfort zone and that’s what makes you better than you were yesterday. I realized where am I in my life now and where do I head to. It’s not just Yoga teacher training, it’s transformational journey which will put you in new perspective. I feel blessed being able to attend that journey.

Marcela

The intention and heart behind this training are palpable. Emily’s love for yoga, all of its teachings and her generous, patient wish to share it, thread through the entire month. She organized an exceptional group of people to each bring us their area of expertise. And the actual group of students attracted to do this training with me were (are) exceptional human beings. It deeply touched my soul and has woken up a new curiosity and excitement about yoga and the possibility to teach it to others.

Andra

I would recommend Emily Kuser Yoga to anyone that has been practicing yoga and wants to rediscover its power and beauty. Come as you are and where you are in your practice and learn to fill the gaps that are present in your yoga. You will learn a tone of amazing information in such a safe and beautiful space. You will build friendships meant to last a life time. I am writing this while a fellow Emily Kuser yogi friend is sleeping on my couch in Singapore. Learning about yourself is the most powerful part of the teacher training, I introduced myself at the beginning of class saying that I don’t want to teach to groups. One month later I feel totally confident to teach a class. In fact I followed Emily’s advice and I printed 300 yoga posters placed them in everyone’s mail box at my building and I’m looking forward to teaching my first class. You will gain the confidence to be a yoga Teacher and that’s a big deal.

Vaiva

The experience IS life changing. this yoga teacher training opened the paths I never new existed, provided a mirror to my true self, held my hand when I had no clue that i needed it, let me fall and thought me the ways of rising up. I thank, I bow, and I know how precious these moments are and will continue to be. After writing this, i suddenly felt very emotional. Emily and Nanna, you are beyond… I hope you understand how amazing it has been… I know that these are just words that you most likely heard many times, but they do come from bottom of my heart. Yet again, thank you and love you.

Riddhi, Australia

Mind blowing, earth shattering, life changing – all cliche sayings that are actually accurate descriptions of the Emily Kuser experience. Emily and her team have managed to create a powerful place of learning and transformation. You will be challenged, you will probably cry. You will also experience more love and acceptance than perhaps ever before. This is so much more than teacher training, it is life training.

Yoska

Emily Kuser teacher training is the greatest gift I have given myself and I wish for every one who feels ready to give this to themselves as well. Truly experiencing space and acceptance and exploring yourself within this love container is how I would describe the training. Finding the yoga instructor within yourself and bringing her out there to play has changed my life in a way I could have only dreamed of. Let this journey of teaching and learning never end. Thank you Emily, Nanna, Jess, Andrea, Chris, Octavio, Tara and Mitchell.

Laura, AU

Emily Kuser Yoga Teacher Training was so much more than a place to study the “ins and outs” of Yoga. It was a beautifully created time and space to connect with myself, and others, on a level which i was not even aware of yet. Emily and the team of unbelievable teachers walked me through a journey of discovering knowledge and understanding the true meaning of yoga via the direct path of self inquiry. At times i was mystified, felt my heart exploding with love and fear, and felt new vibrations of life force which helped me to believe and trust so much more in the practice of yoga, and my desire to share it with others. A truly transforming experience which has allowed me to open my Heart to a life of possibilities, and find a voice of Truth to share it. Thanks you Emily. I am forever grateful xx

D, Canada

I started my search for a yoga teacher training program with the goal of deepening my personal practice and learning more about yoga history and philosophy. Something about Emily’s training drew me in, and I followed my instinct and chose to go to her in Bali. The magic and love that ensued were phenomenal… I grew so much as a person and became so much more in touch with myself and with my spirit. Not only did I learn way more about yoga than I could possibly have hoped for, I learned how to love, how to be true to myself, and how to connect with others on a real and meaningful level. Our group came together as a veritable kula and we established deep connections with one another; I know that we will continue for a long time to support and love each other from our respective corners of the world. Emily’s authenticity and humility make her a wonderful yoga and spiritual teacher, and I am so full of joy for having chosen her training.

Heather, USA

I feel Emily Kuser Yoga has created a space that blends the beauty of the physical practice of yoga along with deep seeded knowledge and finding the internal light we all have. Emily Kuser taught me how our practice takes place not only on the mat but as importantly it take place in each breath of our day, each interaction, all moments. To live love and share love with everything that crosses our paths. I live each day with so much more gratitude and purpose because of the journey with my Emily Kuser Yoga kula~LOVE LOVE LOVE

Nina, Finland

For me, it was so much more than I expected, and I was expecting something really great:) Just love.

Bart, Netherlands

Emily is a gifted person who knows how to tune in with the needs of a group of people being on a journey to make a transition in their lives. Not only does she have an extensive collection of fine and knowledgeable co-teachers, she also schedules them on the right time in the course, so the learning curve stays active all throughout the month, without it becoming to much to take in. The way in which the teachings are handed over are compassionate, there is always space for those suffering from personal discomfort. Emily does not teach you to only do the asanas. Instead she makes you aware of the whole picture that it takes to be a yoga teacher. Where others focus on demonstrating the poses, Emily emphasizes the verbal qualities of a teacher. This has definitely taught me to more observant and to verbally encourage people how to adjust their poses. The ambiance that was created in a group of 28 people was warm and family like. The humbleness and authentic honesty that Emily dares to show, allows participants to follow her example. The well organized brunch every morning as well as other surprise activities, surely contributed to the feeling that this training was worth it’s money.

Annalise, USA

I have utter gratitude for this experience, and for all the worlds Emily Kuser allowed me to enter. They say there are specific energy hot spots around the world, waiting for its magnetic inquisitors to wander on by, and I’m certain Bali is one of them. Being integrated into such a energetic mecca of spirituality, love and medicinal oomph helped me to discover a much clearer way of interacting with the world. I feel rich from the amount of nourishment I received here and want to emanate my experience into everything I do and with everyone I meet. This is not a fading experience, because I now understand intention, consistency, patience, awareness and much more and how to embody these discoveries. I’m slowly shedding off the layers that have grown around my center self because of Emily Kuser’s assistance. Emily is a gem, as well as all the other eclectic and well respected faculty we had from all backgrounds. They were wonderful people who came together to share their passion in this wild universe of yoga. To me, this was education at its rawest and finest form.

Ronja, Norway

The experience changed my life, I feel truly empowered with tools I can use as a teacher and as a human being. Through the Emily Kuser training I have gained a lot of new insight and also the eagerness to learn more about all aspects of yoga.

Evelyn, Switzerland

The Emily Kuser Yoga Teacher Training is a once-in-a-lifetime experience one will never ever forget. A journey of spiritual revelation, into the abundant realms of the self, gently guided by outstanding, genuine teachers who are dedicated and inspiring beyond description. In supporting and caring for each other, we grow as individuals and as a kula. The entire training is one major sacred offering, propelling transformation, igniting immense joy of life. I bow with deepest gratitude with a smiling heart and dancing soul.

Judy, UK

The Emilu Kuser 200 hours teacher training will change your out look on life. Fact. Such a high caliber of amazing teachers and wonderful experiences put together in a beautiful place. It will stay with me and will grow with me my whole life. I left the course with a brave heart and a enormous smile on my face ready to share the beauty that I have learnt with my community back home. I feel so happy and blessed to of been a part of the magic of Emily Kuser In July 2014. The start of an exciting journey.

Puk, Denmark

Emily is such an inspiring and skilled teacher, and I learned SO much from her. She really figured out how to create a teacher training that has a high standard. The hole program is amazing and the guest teachers are all very professional, honest and lovely people. The location is so beautiful and the energy there brings people together and it really opened up my mind. Thank you for that Emily!

Mary, Indonesia

I truly truly recommend Emily Kuser Yoga and I would do it right away, right now if I had the chance It’s an experience you will never forget for the rest of your life. Magically, Emily had chosen 28 of us to join her training, opening and sharing her beautiful heart to all of us and creating a beautiful class full of Love. I have so much more confidence now to teach, my heart is filled with so much good vibes i can’t describe it. I learned so much from her and the guest teachers, and i will forever be grateful for the opportunity to have met and learned from such beautiful people and souls.

Nicola Jean, Australia

I am Nicola Jean from Australia, now NicolaJean Yoga ([email protected]) If you have awakened to the yogi within and want to deepen this expression in your own life and in the lives of others, then committing to Emily Kuser Teacher training will be the best decision you ever make. I offer this recommendation with the same amount of enthusiasm and contagious sense of joy that Emily Kuser offers up daily on her yoga teaching discovery. I wanted to explore yoga and have always found it a very personal practice. Stepping up to a teacher training commitment, I wanted to walk away with a genuine understanding of asana, history, philosophy and teaching techniques that would enable me to start teaching immediately with confidence. All of this was delivered on with so much more…..Emily’s teacher training introduced such inspiring guest speakers and teachers, in the most beautiful sacred space (Lotus Studio) for an entire month at The Yoga Barn – Bali. I mean it was mind blowing……this is a gift you give yourself. Not only were the well thought out guest teachers and speakers fun and exceptional but the universal group of students were equally amazing. I left Bali with my teaching accreditation, a yogi family and an extended community that want to support and inspire me to achieve my teaching goals. So on that note I invite you to join our Emily Kuser teacher training family and to plug into Emily’s vision of endless possibilities for yoga in your life. Be transformed, you’ll love it. Namaste

Barbara

I am Barbara, Yoga student forever, and after Emily Kuser TT, I’m a qualified and certified Yoga Teacher! I will never stop to express my infinite gratitude for Emily. She taught me discipline, to open to grace and to respect my practice honouring my limits and listening to my body. She create a sacred space where I and my brothers and sisters could feel safe and free. I finally find my true Voice and thanks to her teachings and wisdom I am grounded, confident and honestly open in front of my students. Every thank I receive from them I dedicate to you Emily. I Thank you for the fun and dances, laughter and the tears, sweat and drops of joy, the live music and the silence, the yummy food @ Kafe and the Lotus studio @ Yoga Barn, I thank you for the amazing guests and Co-teachers’ contagious passion,for the books we read and the manual you wrote, for this community you’re building and the respect for each individual, I thank you for what I am now (you should hear me saying my name!), I thank you for your focus and dedication,Thank you to be so real and extra-ordinary. Namaste Guru

I completed my one month 200 hour teacher training course with Emily Kuser Yoga in Aug 2013. Emily Kuser is a very passionate, incredible & gifted teacher. She has this extraordinary sense of acumen. Co-teacher Bex Taylor is very energetic, full of life and also very passionate. She touches hearts with her teachings. Despite being amazing and respected teachers, they remained compassionate, open and very down to earth. I have also truly learnt a lot from the inspiring panel of guest teachers and my lovely 23 sisters and brothers. Yoga Barn Ubud is a world out of this world. The team of staff at the Yoga Barn and Kafe is warm, friendly and even go beyond their call of duties at times. I felt supported and everything was so well taken care throughout the course. The Emily Kuser yoga experience and surprises along the course were way beyond my imagination. Words cannot fully express the experience which I shared with my sisters and brothers. You have to feel the HIGH yoga vibrations yourself! 🙂 With love & gratitude. Namaste.

I started my journey with Emily Kuser by taking her Anusara classes at The Yoga Barn – Bali. I was scheduled to complete a different teacher training, but realized it was not a good fit. I just felt so comfortable with Emily and her style. When I came to the decision to pull out of the other training and asked to join Emily Kuser Yoga Immersion – Ubud, Bali, she was unbelievably supportive. It was the best decision I’ve made (since quitting my corporate law job last year). I was not looking for a teacher training that broke students down in order to rebuild them. Emily does not do that. Instead, she offers support to ensure that each student is uplifted, to be the best person that they can be, to ensure they have the tools to go out and spread yoga and Emily Kuser to others. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Emily!

Antoinette – Los Angeles, CA, USA

Emily, Bex & Ashley, You have put together a balanced retreat that has covered all angles of yoga. Believe it or not, it was life-changing mentally, spiritually, emotionally, physically-in just 7 days! Your Emily Kuser Yoga Immersion had a major effect on me. I was truly touched by each and everyone of you. Meeting all the beauties involved and being around everyone is just what I needed. I lost my practice…and H Emily Kuser  woke it up again! I am emotionally stubborn…and now I’m more open. I never thought I could become more than a little spiritual. I have a more peaceful and calm mental state and that is truly important— peace and ease creates the balanced and solid foundation to lead all angles of my life for the rest of my life. I believe! Suggestion: I think you should offer a discount for those who visit your retreat again and bring a friend…hahahaha! That just means I’m definitely coming back someday! Good luck to you all! Miss you!

I would not be exaggerating to say that joining the Emily Kuser Teacher Training was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Emily puts so much heart and soul into everything she does that she creates a beautiful, seamless experience that allows the student to fully engage, grow and learn. Not only is Emily an engaging and fun teacher, but she is also down to earth and about as forthcoming and honest as you can get.  Emily Kuser  also gives the incredible experience of learning from many different teachers from all walks of life and yoga styles, giving you a well-rounded and thorough learning experience in one of the most beautiful spaces I’ve ever done yoga. What surprised me the most (having completed a couple teacher trainings before) was the great emphasis on actually teaching. Ironically, some trainings can leave you knowing a lot about theory and asana but without the confidence to actually hold space in a classroom and feel like you can lead a class. From the get go,  Emily Kuser built an environment that allowed us to become teachers right away, making it so that at the end of the month we all felt we had the tools to not just teach, but do it in such a way that will open hearts and minds. If you really have a passion to teach and share yoga with the world, I couldn’t recommend anything more highly than Emily Kuser !

I had been looking for yoga teacher trainings for about a year when one day I stumbled across Emily’s website and the announcement for Emily Kuser teacher training. I immediately knew that this was the one. Why? 1) Location: Even though I hadn’t even considered Bali, I had this inkling of a feeling that I would love this island, as well as the Yoga Barn, where the training would take place. 2) Curriculum: The way Emily presented the curriculum showed how well-thought through the training was and I immediately got the sense that it had been put together by someone who wanted to make this experience the best her students could possibly have. 3) Values: The fact that Emily invited a whole array of guest teachers to teach on the course – from Ayurveda, Anatomy, Neuroscience, Meditation, History of Yoga, Spiritual Activism, Philosophy, Bio-mechanics of Yoga and much more – showed her integrity and strong values as a teacher. By inviting these dedicated and highly trained individuals, she was paying forward, giving back to community. This training has been the most heart-opening, genuine, fun, inspiring, high-vibing freaking thing that could have possibly happened to me. I am deeply grateful to Emily and all the amazing teachers on the course for making it happen. I am and will be recommending it to everyone with a passionate wish to teach yoga!

I am still high vibing from the 200hr teacher training I completed in August! Emily is not only one of the best yoga teachers I have had the joy of practicing with, she is also an incredibly gifted facilitator. The intelligence and intention behind every single detail was evident – from the guest teachers (world class quality, Bex,Les, Chris…!), the location, the schedule, the excursions, the whole shebang. It was so well done and Emily created such a supportive and safe space to train in. I would recommend to anyone interested in transforming their yoga practise to do so with the team @ Emily Kuser..

My experience at Emily Kuser was just amazing. I went there for a 1-week retreat to help me manage big changes in my life. The experience was so rich and beneficial that I committed to return once a year. From the schedule to the food, everything was just perfect. I also met wonderful soul-sisters who became very good friends. Emily & Bex are passionate about what they do and are truly amazing teachers (probably the best I’ve ever had). This was so good that I am going to take their 200 hours yoga teacher training in August and I am really looking forward to it! If you are looking for a beautiful spiritual life changing experience, you’ve found the perfect place!

I did extensive research into available Teacher Training courses so choosing to go with Emily Kuser was a well considered decision. Emily Kuser’s website happened to be the first one I read through online and turned out to be the last one -full circle! What drew me to enrol for the Emily Kuser training was -apart from Emily’s charismatic humble photographic presence- the clarity in which the information was displayed, the ‘voice’ or message (genuine and warm, yet firm), the style of yoga (mainly though not limited to Anusara; a very intelligent and refreshing approach), the fairness of price, and location off course: Ubud’s Yoga Barn is undoubtedly the ultimate environment for Teacher Training. Imagine doing your daily sun salutes overlooking a pond and rice paddy, coconut trees in the background, a rooster calling in the distance, a frangipani flower landing on your mat. All of the above, and so much more, I received during the course. Emily’s generosity and intelligence was endless -and you need lots of it to guide a group of 26 people through a Teacher Training. Yes, it was challenging, at times it was like being spun inside a washing machine. But the insights coming from it were so profound. It was a huge learning cure, a massive time of transformation. The training was so much fun: some of the teaching labs were hilarious, the hugs the best you will ever receive. We had guest teachers come in share their knowledge about anatomy, Ayurveda, Kirtan, meditation, alignment and music. The food was delicious! I left Ubud with a suitcase full of tools and a network of amazing yogi’s from all over the world: life changing.

Where do I start… From the moment I walked down the path to soulshine I also started a new path in my life. One filled with extreme positive thoughts, fresh drive and a reaffirmed self confidence. Emily and Bex are two amazing women and taught me that opening up emotionally even being a man is not only ok, its a must! If you have been looking for a yoga retreat to go to, look no further. Even if you just come to Bali for a trip, stop into both these ladies classes I promise you will not be disappointed.

Emily Kuser is the most incredible journey I have been blessed to go on. Emily is an incredible teacher, and her ability to share opens up the spirit of others, and takes away the fears…leaving us with a safe environment to grow and explore! She brings in amazing guest teachers, and not only is it educational, but it is so, so much fun! Lots of laughter! My practice, my mental attitude, and my heart has expanded beyond words!

Anna Nelson, New Zealand

If you want renewed sense of self; If you want to reconnect with what is real; If you want to discover a new way of being – Go to Emily Kuser!

Emily Kuser Yoga is something that I wish I could offer for all my friends and family, is something that I want more for my life. Is a time that all of us need to meet ourself, to hug our soul, to bless our mind and to listening to our body. I met amazing people that I felt they were part of my all life . When I decided to come alone I was a little confuse, but when I arrived there I realized that I was really not alone…I had there one of the best moments of my life! Thank you all to have this place in the world where I know I can come and have this time for myself to glow!!!

I just wanted to say a massive thank-you to both of you for all your hard work and for making the 3 day immersion such an enjoyable experience. It was a bit of a last minute decision to join you for it, but I certainly didn’t regret it for one minute. I was really impressed with the variety of things you included in such a short space of time; a yummy yoga cocktail of anusara, vinyasa, acro, inspiring talks and beautiful live flute playing just to name a few! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend attending a Emily Kuser retreat to any of my friends or yoga students, and very much hope to be able to join you again soon! I think you’re both very talented and inspirational teachers and to be honest I just feel very lucky to be able to come and take your classes and learn so much as a student and also get ideas for my own teaching. You’re both super stars – thank-u! :-)

The Emily Kuser retreat was life changing. I went to Bali hoping to relax, de-stress and do some yoga. While that was achieved, the retreat offered soooo much more. I have a truckload of gratitude to Megan and Emily for all that I have learned through the amazing work that they do.I came into the retreat really closed off to the world. I had so many walls built to keep people away, thinking I was strong because no one could hurt me. In the retreat, I learnt that real strength is about having the courage to let people in. It was amazing connecting with everyone on the retreat and I feel really lucky to have been a part of a group where everyone was open and honest. It was a magical experience, and I feel that I am truly living better as a result.

Sharon – Gold Coast, Australia

Wow! What an amazing experience! A week away in Bali with Emily Kuser yoga classes & food, wonderful teachers and an opportunity to make wonderful friendships. If you have been feeling tired, lacking in energy, need a week away to lift your spirits then get your butt to Bali and join Emily & Bex to feel renewed, energized and catch some seriously high vibes. I so needed this week away and am so grateful for the manifestation of this wonderful retreat. I will be back!!!

Emma – Sydney, Australia

I have just come back from an amazing, inspirational time with a bunch of fantastic women from all over the world. Emily and Bex are tireless in their care and effort to ensure not just the yoga is amazing, but the food, location and entire “yogic” experience. I will be coming back next year! Thanks for giving me the “me time” I so desperately needed with a lot of brilliant, strengthening yoga, in a fab piece of paradise.

Olly, Australia

“Emily Kuser was fantastic. I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a different kind of holiday with a love of all things yoga. Emily and Megan are both excellent and experienced teachers and they did a wonderful job of bringing the group together and connecting with everybody on a personal level. The yoga practices were challenging and varied allowing everyone to explore their strengths and weaknesses and push beyond their edge, all while having loads of fun and lots of laughs! The food and the accommodation were all amazing as well. Made some really wonderful friends and I think we all inspired each other in our own way during our week together and will definitely keep in touch. An unforgettable experience.”

Sarah – Calgary, Canada

The Emily Kuser Yoga Retreat was an amazing experience from start to finish. The location, teachers, supporting community guests, schedule of events and yoga were the highest quality that anyone could ask for. Emily and her community truly embody the spirit of yoga. They meet each individual exactly where they are at on all levels and gently encourage them to explore possibilities for growth. I highly recommend this retreat if you want your heart to expand and to leave with a smile on your face and spring in your step. Thank you to everyone who made this experience possible!

Sandra – Amsterdam/Bali

It was a inspirational week in Ubud with Emily, Bex, Ashley, Cathy, Philip and others. A competent, loving and creative group of friends who came together with the purpose of creating an experience of diverse yoga styles meditations and more.. Emily and Bex are excellent teachers and helped us to get into the various positions (asanas) and offered us advice for our personal aches and pains. The location of Ubud, the full moon, the energy, the enjoyment of meeting new people, the philosophy talks and the dance session with Cathy and last but not least the outstanding cuisine and workshops of Ashley and her helper Putu are unforgettable. The acro yoga was indeed exciting! I felt safe and cared for in a lovely and comfortable setting. This Emily Kuser yoga retreat has a special charm. The knowledge and loving kindness of Emily, Bex and Ashley were beyond expectation. An experience which I will be likely to repeat and highly recommend to others. To conclude I would say: High Vibe Yoga is really a Labour of Love!

Sophia, Denmark

This week was truly inspiring to me – I have never met so many fantastic people with so much love to share. I am so grateful that you 3 girls, Emily, Bex and Ashley opened up so much to us. That was not required of you but it made me able to open up as well. This retreat has helped me find my self again (even though I still have a long journey ahead of me) and it has set my priorities straight. I know it will be a challenge to retain and nurture this feeling now when I am back home, but you have given me so many tools to work with and so much inspiration, that I am now sure it is doable =) I will strive to retain yoga practice as part of my everyday life. Many hugs to all of you, and a great thank you for making this week so special, I hope one day our roads will cross again.

Barbara – Kenya, Africa

It has been good to come back to Bali and I feel more at peace with myself for having done so. I wonder why I waited so long and let it become a problem. I made a promise to myself to always face the things I fear the most, as soon a possible. Thank you all of you for making the week we spent together such a precious and revealing experience.

Dreams full of monkey love, Connection with creation Caged primal energy released, Freed! My sisters, thank you, For coming together in celebration, dedication, meditation, High Vibrations!

Bob, US

I arrived a middle-aged, fairly inflexible guy, dragging my hidden wagon of baggage behind me. I had full intentions of orbiting the experience like an ethnographer with a notebook, gathering ideas, analyzing and returning to report. What I didn’t expect was deep personal transformation, feeling loved, and a notebook full of personal resolutions that will change my life and the lives of my students forever. Emily and Bex, you made a dent in my universe and for that I will forever be grateful. Words are not adequate— please imagine me looking deep into your eyes and sending you pure love vibes.

Yun, Korea

I just quit my job right before this retreat. I needed something to clean my head and to clear my vision. I had so many anxieties in my mind about future, relationship and being a mother and it really bothered me. After the retreat I found out that it’s really hard to be a different person. I ‘m still me. I still have many anxieties and still have difficulties with relationships but the difference is that I know myself better now. I become to know something about myself I didn’t even expect from me. I was still struggling with my past that I thought that I had overcome. Big advance for me. Thank you so much. Emily, Bex, Ashely and all the retreat buddies.

Sebastien, Montreal, CA

I enjoyed every minute of this amazing retreat, I felt at home from the first day, I made amazing connections with every people of the retreat including the inspiring teachers. I learned a lot about my own self. I would recommend to all level of experience as a relieving and full of love experience!

Shelby, US

Whoa. So, that was a mindblowing experience! I thought I was just coming to learn a bunch of yoga poses! Instead, it has been a joyous, painful, and awakening journey inwards. Yes, I learned a lot about asana as well, and feel prepared to teach a yoga class (or meditation or mantra for that matter), but this time was far more than I ever expected. Emily’s positive energy is contagious, and her authenticity invites people to grow in ways they didn’t expect. The teachers she brings in for the other modules are spectacular – I overlooked them when singing up, but they make each part of the training come alive. Thank you, Emily, for this awesome experience.

Kirsty, Canada

People hope their YTT will be life changing. They often don’t know how, or why, but it seems to be the common desired outcome. This training will crack you open in the most gentle way, and then tenderly and carefully and with such love, piece you back together. You’ll leave as a stronger, more resilient, more beautiful version of yourself.

Nicola Pearson, UAE.

This training far surpassed my expectations or indeed anything I had wished for. It synthesizes all the elements of yogic practice into a wonderful tapestry of experience that opened my heart, mind, and body. Impeccable teaching and an exceptional attendance to growth and empowerment were the order of the day. I could not speak more highly of this training. Recommended without question. Thank you Emily! 

Evelyn, Switzerland

The Emily Kuser Yoga Teacher Training is a once-in-a-lifetime experience one will never ever forget. A journey of spiritual revelation, into the abundant realms of the self, gently guided by outstanding, genuine teachers who are dedicated and inspiring beyond description.
In supporting and caring for each other, we grow as individuals and as a kula. The entire training is one major sacred offering, propelling transformation, igniting immense joy of life. I bow with deepest gratitude with a smiling heart and dancing soul

What surprised me the most (having completed a couple teacher trainings before) was the great emphasis on actually teaching.

I just completed the 200 hour teacher training and couldn’t recommend it more highly. The experience was incredible- very professional, fabulous trainer and guest lecturers, tasty healthy food, and a comfortable environment perfect for facilitating learning. I had my doubts about a non-residential training, but Emily is a community builder extraordinaire. Everyone who came into the training to teach had a palpable contagious energy and a passion for what they were sharing. Loved it and highly recommend any event with the Emily Kuser team.
