Yvonne Farrell is an excellent teacher ...Liked the treatment protocols and the structure of the course. Lot of information which will take time to digest. Will be able to apply what i have learnt. Thank you. ~ Andre
Really good course ,gave me a lot of new information that I am excited to work with. ~ Jack
Interesting class with a really knowing teacher. The material is very heady and I needed a good amount of time to digest (maybe a weakness in my Chong.) I would love to see this broken down into maybe three to four days of instruction. It felt compressed and missed the nuances of the material. ~ Lisa
Life and Practice changing experience. Totally inspiring. ~ Suzan
The very best seminar I have ever done. Thank you Yvonne for re-energising my practise. ~ Helen
This is the best information I've received through an online course. It will be very helpful in my practice.
~Laura
Helpful information for extraordinary vessels
I found that the course was very interesting, and there was so much information being taught and it was so dense that I had to sometimes do some menial task like the dishes while I was listening to her voice, just to help the material sink in. I will have to use these treatments and this information in my practice to make it mine. Very good information.
