"The Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training was excellent and comprehensive. Janice's sensitivity and awareness for the expectant mom's developing relationship with her unborn child is deeply intuitive. It was the second time I attended that the full impact of what Janice is teaching sunk in. The teacher training has enriched all levels of my teaching." D Humphries
