FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE A REGULAR YOGA THERAPY PERSONAL PRACTICE
In September 2009 I was diagnosed as having hyperthyroid Graves disease. In
allopathic medicine the condition is classified as incurable with treatment
options of surgical removal of part of the thyroid, long term medication and/or
radioactive iodine treatment. After I commenced practicing a yoga therapy
practice prescribed for me by Dr NC In May 2011 I experienced a rapid
improvement in my condition. My condition had been slowly improving under the
guidance of an ayurvedic doctor and from the modifications I made to my yoga practice, but the practice
devised by Dr NC accelerated the healing to the point that I now have normal
thyroid function and am free of Graves disease.

I am 73 years of age, extremely active and almost religious in my
practice of the yoga therapy program that Dr NC gave me in November 2011.
Although I have been practicing yoga for 10 years, I still can’t believe how
well this program is working! The major improvements I have noticed are in
my overall flexibility, a significant strengthening of my midsection and
legs, improved digestion, increased stamina and marvellous mental wellbeing,
All this in a matter of four months!

Feedback!!!! Simple yet profound!! I haven't missed a day and am loving my practice so much!! I have even maintained it at 11.30pm after a evening out. The most amazing thing was that within a week people were asking what I had done differently. So thank you!
Thank you! Thank you! for removing the obstacles to my practice of yoga and setting profound change in process.
I am thrilled to be part of YTA and your future endeavors. A big namaste to
Saras and Dr NC. I can't express my gratitude enough with words; only
through maintaining my practice and allowing the results to demonstrate the
profound change that can be achieved when following an individual practice
tailored to ones needs. Of course from an established practitioner and
professional therapist.

I've been practising specifically prescribed (by Dr NC) yoga exercises for my chronic auto-immune condition
for nearly 2 years now. The enormous benefits show in a greatly improved quality of life.
Yoga therapy has really turned my life around!
Renate Turrini
I have noticed a lot of difference with doing my personal practice from
Dr NC – I have a lot more energy, I am sleeping better, my back is stronger
but not so tight, there is less pain with the arthritis in my body and my
breathing is definitely much improved!

results!

FROM FOUNDATIONS COURSE PARTICIPANTS
I did the last Foundations Course. It is the best course in establishing the core teachings of yoga for anyone wanting to understand Yoga for the Individual and the purpose of asana practice and how to use Prana and Meditation. Saraswathi and Dr. N C are professional and humble teachers with a special ability to impart the most intricate in the most useful manner. Thank you!! Thank you!! Thank you!

I consider it a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to have Dr NC come to
Australia and share with us the incredible depth and knowledge of his
experience in yoga and yoga therapy especially given his background as a
practising qualified medical doctor in the western model. Saraswathi's
knowledge of the Yoga Sutras and philosophy is impeccable. Her classes
were always completely captivating and infused with her great warmth,
intelligence and insight. Her meditation classes were also a wonderful
treat. Dr NC and Saraswathi took turns taking the morning asana classes
which generally reflected and expanded upon themes discussed in class.
Throw in the sublime ayurvedic cooking of Steve Galpin and a beautiful
setting and ... that's about as good as life gets!

FROM POST GRADUATE DIPLOMA PARTICIPANTS
If I have been able to have any insight in yoga therapy, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of a giant in the field – Doctor NC. He is not just a medical doctor, a yoga teacher and a yoga therapist of 20 years standing, he is also a gifted teacher and communicator, indeed an acharya.

Just came off the Module 2 retreat - absolutely fantastic. If you're interested in yoga as therapy I strongly recommend this diploma.

Unlike anything you have studied before in Yoga, uniting western medicine and eastern philosophies it compliments therapy on all levels. This course is a must for anyone interested in a safe and effective therapy which is accessible to everyone.
Cindy Brooks
What differentiates this Yoga Therapy Course from other teachings I have experienced, is that it redefines what is unique and special (indeed magical) about yoga. Whilst many other schools of thought in yoga over the past 20 years or so have been moving more and more towards a method of practice and teaching which is very physically based, this course harks back to a more classical basis of knowledge. Those who have had a very 'alignment' based practice, and whose understanding has its foundations in almost a physiotherapy style model of yoga may find these teachings confronting at first, as I did. However, what I have come to understand is that this method does not have as its primary focus the stretching and strengthening of the muscles; it instead uses more subtle and natural movements, which ultimately work at the level of prana.
The results of any practice must be the final yard-stick by which it is judged; and since committing to this style of practice, I have to say that I have experienced profound improvements in my level of energy, a lessening of severity of my various symptoms of disease and injury, and a clearer state of mind. Others students on the course have reported dramatic improvements in their health, far beyond what has been experienced with other modalities of healing. The depth of understanding, and the genuineness and integrity of the teachers is beyond question.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in developing a deeper understanding of the ancient art and science of yoga, and who values the integrity of the classical knowledge that has been passed down to us throughout the centuries.
