Testimonials from 100 Hour Steel Mace Vinyasa Graduates:
“The 100 Hour Steel Mace Vinyasa teacher training was an absolute game changer! I hadn't considered myself to be a movement coach. I was always in this lane of being a yoga teacher. The fundamentals of prime, condition, and flow to prepare the body and mind for the work ahead has been a monumental shift in the way I teach, whether it's yoga or Steel Mace, or Kettlebells. The 4 Day Wave has completely changed the way I train which supports my own movement practice in such a deep way.
I had no idea that such a training methodology even existed. I learned so much. Summer brought things to my attention that I would have never even considered in regard to coaching. Working through different patterns that I've held for most of my life. Even just bringing awareness to those areas have created a big change in the way I'm running my business.”

“Summer and the 100 Hour Steel Mace Vinyasa Teacher training is incredible! From my first coaching session with her I knewI would learn a lot with her. The questions she asked me took me out of the comfort zone and inspired me to keep studying more and more. I loved to learn from the virtual classes and online courses!
I'm already applying many concepts that I learned from the Steel Mace Vinyasa Certification with my students and it's working. I'm definitely more organized and more sensitive to understand my students, their strengths and their struggles. I want to thank you all at Flow Shala for everything you did for my career. Summer for her inspiring knowledge and her resourcefulness.”

"The Steel Mace Vinyasa 100 Hour curriculum challenged me to deeply understand how to get to the very root of why people walk in the door for training, how I can support transformation in a realistic way.
Summer is remarkable. She has created a container both virtually and in-person that is next-level! There is such depth to the Steel Mace Vinyasa curriculum, and a fundamental system of support for taking in the material.
I not only immersed myself in Steel Mace Vinyasa and Flow State, but learned the fundamentals of yoga, breath work, somatics, neural load training, Patterns, Posture and Power Leakages, HIIT protocols, I could go on.
I learned what it takes to develop and deliver a cohesive body of work with passion and joy! "

Testimonials from 2.5 Day Steel Mace, Clubs Seminars
“The Event was well organized, professional, and best of all - fun! It is the first time I have attended a training seminar and it was well worth it and I had a blast. Besides the professionalism and enjoyment, it was also extremely informative and educational. The steel mace vinyasa segments were really helping my shoulders and hips and I could feel myself moving better as I was getting into flow.
The club segments were extremely helpful as I currently run the 2H club program. The in-person cues were invaluable, they really helped me hone in my technique and fix errors I was making training alone at home.
And lastly the staff segments were awesome. It was fun seeing myself and others go from noob to somewhat competent with the staff blocks, attacks, walking and movements in a matter of days.”
- Karan from NYC
"The more I process the experience, the more I appreciate the gift that you and Mark gave our group. You both exceeded my expectations on every level!
I am amazed at how much you were able to pack into the weekend! I have been very active my entire life, but I haven’t worked that hard for years! It was awesome! The content was as solid as the pedagogy, it was an accelerant but it also equipped me to continue growing into the future on my own! I was able to refine skills I’ve been working on in isolation for awhile now (clubs and mobility) and I learned new techniques that I will continue to build upon (staff, mace vinyasa flow and RAD Rollers)."
