This training has helped me to gain discipline in meditation, developed a view of the intersections between Buddhism and secular practice, and certified me to share this knowledge at a foundational but powerful level. So all in all, it's meant a great deal to me. Thank you!

A Truly Transformative Experience ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I signed up for the Dharma Moon Teacher Training because I had been practicing meditation for years and felt a deep calling to share it with others. I wanted a program rooted in authentic tradition but practical enough to prepare me for real-world teaching, and Dharma Moon exceeded every expectation. The program didn't just teach me how to guide a meditation, it helped me understand why each practice works, giving me the confidence and foundation to teach anyone. The instructors were genuinely invested in my growth, and the curriculum struck a perfect balance between theory and hands-on practice. The community of fellow trainees was an unexpected bonus ! Would I recommend it? Absolutely and without hesitation. Dharma Moon will not only certify you , it will transform you. One of the best decisions I've ever made.

The class is very thoughtfully designed. All of the instructors and supporting materials are excellent. They pack so much into each session, with not a moment wasted. There is so much intention and integrity in what they are presenting. It felt like a very safe place to learn and explore.

I had some doubts about whether the program would feel too centered on “American culture,” since I’m from Africa (Mozambique), but I was wrong. I loved the kind and inclusive atmosphere your team created during the sessions; the authenticity and humility with which you approach meditation and its practice and its teaching. A heartfelt thank you.

I was looking for a fresh start and when I found Dharma Moon. I looked at other programs, but ultimately chose this program because it felt approachable and non-dogmatic. I’ve been through many certifications. All are informing, helping you understand the subject usually quite well, theoretically speaking. Not all do a great job preparing you to actually go out and do the thing. Dharma moon has a focus on creating good teachers and I found that focus on the actual skill of teaching, not just the teachings, to be an integral part of the experience.I would absolutely recommend this program to others looking to become a meditation teacher.

The Mindfulness Meditation teacher training is so much more than I could have imagined. It was so life changing that those in my vicinity were noticing and then talking about meditation as if it were newly discovered. People were naturally becoming curious on their own.

This training was EVERYTHING! I have been teaching mindfulness meditation for about 5-6 years. My teaching lacked clarity & focus. This program has given me so many gifts. Practice giving talks. An amazing community of Dharma Moon teachers & students and the deep but always accessible teachings from David.

It's been an opportunity to dive deeper into the background of mindfulness meditation. I've discovered a practice that makes me independent from apps. And, most importantly, I have found a community of like minded people from around the world. I was hesitant about the fact that the program was completely online. The teachers and team navigated that beautifully though. I felt very much in community with everyone in the training and the time spent online never felt tedious.

I signed up so I could help folks learn to meditate without any true plan or expectation. I am very pleased at how this turned out to be not too tight, not too loose, just the right amount of information. There was such a strong support from teachers and classmates as well. It has been a great experience!

Since the training, I have led classes for healthcare providers to reduce burnout, countless meditation groups at the health clinics I have worked at (I'm a physician assistant), and at various therapy practices, nursing homes, and other locations. The training truly gave me the confidence and skills I needed to offer the practice more widely, and I am so thankful that I did it!

This training helped deepen my practice and provided structure for how I present mindfulness instruction to others. I especially appreciated having the opportunity to practice the skills and getting feedback from peers and teachers. I feel like this training contributed to a lot of personal growth in a short time and I gained so much from the practice, community, and education.

I joined the Dharma Moon Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training course with two objectives: to develop my meditation practice and to assess my potential for providing meditation training for people in my community, intially for people in my personal network. I believe that the course has met both objectives. The course has acquainted me with mindfulness meditation, which was a new experience for me. I believe that mindfulness may prove to be a more transformative meditation practice for me then the one I have used in the past in that it more effectively helps me bring meditative qualities from the meditation session out into everyday life. The combination of intellectual and experiential training throughout the course has given me the confidence to consider myself as a teacher running a meditation center. The course is well designed and impeccably executed, including the leadership, the solid qualities of the teachers and well developed course materials. I warmly recommend the course for people interested in developing their own meditation practice as well as in training others in the field of meditaiton and personal development.

This training has been a great supplement and support to my personal practice and has allowed me to maintain connection and build connection with Sangha. It was meant a great deal during a particularly challenging time. I am just so very happy and grateful to have found Dharma Moon and it's community. I look forward to seeing some of you at the retreat and other in-person or online events in the future.
