What Academy Teachers Are Saying
Real Experiences from Your Peers:
"The Evolution Happened Fast"
The opportunity came fast - I was offered the paid support role for the next training, stepping into a completely new position. Radiantly Alive doesn't just teach you; they actively create pathways for your evolution.
Every time you come back, people know you. There's a sense of really knowing each other based on the same values we learn here. It's a second family that gives you community, friendships, and opportunities to grow faster than you imagined."
— Laura, Level 2 Established Teacher (Germany)
“The RA Academy Opens Doors”
"I've known Radiantly Alive for 8 years, I did my 300hr in 2020, and the doors just keep opening. I've facilitated modules in YTTs, organized a reunion in Munich with Rafael and Sanna, and return to Bali regularly to stay connected with this family.
Radiantly Alive opened my eyes on a personal level - showing me how I want to proceed as a teacher and what kind of light I want to share with my community. The things you learn here are something you can truly take and spread within your own world"
— Liz, Level 3 Senior Teacher (Germany)
"From Nervous to Confident"
"Assisting the facilitators during the training was so special because it was one of my dreams to help them and see the trainings from another perspective - not as a student, but as a teacher and as a member of the RA family.
Coming back to assist in Bali nine months after my 200hr completely transformed my confidence as a teacher. I went from nervous about adjustments to feeling like a real mentor for new students.."
— Alexandra, Level 1 Teacher (France)
