Living Yolates Reviews 

Mikkala is one of my favourite people. Her classes are calming, uplifting, strengthening and empowering. Every class is a big "WOW". Afterwards I feel centered and ready for anything. Mood is balanced, emotions released and harmonized and the body is feeling open and strong. Just what we need. And the community is what I need during these times. Thank you Mikkala!

For me Living Yolates is the best holistic approach for body mind and spirit. Until now I've been practicing Yoga and Pilates a lot. Since I know about Yolates this became my beloved routine. The Living Yolates Circle is a great opportunity because of so many themes and so many different programs. I'll truly recommend it for everyone.
Thank you Mikkala and your whole team.

1000 stjerner til Mikkala og Living Yolates <33
Jeg har været med på utallige workshops og så tog jeg Living Yolates Teacher Training på Bali. Det var en ubeskrivelig rejse og læring, som jeg bruger hver dag.

Jeg anbefaler Living Yolates til alle jeg møder på min vej. Det har åbnet op til et en bevidsthed jeg altid har haft, men endnu kraftigere. Det var på alle måder helt vildt magisk og livsændrende træningsform og tankegang, som vil ændre dit liv! Jeg skal helt sikkert med på retreats, workshop og uddannelse igen.

Af hjertet tak til Mikkala for at have designet den vildeste træningsform. Wauw!!

Wonderful yolates classes – I especially love how each class tells a story and helps me to connect to the larger rhythms of nature and the seasons.

Living Yolates sessions leave my joints feeling lubricated, my body far more flexible, and my spirit lifted. Love the gentle, meet your body where you are, approach. The music is lovely and Mikkala’s essence is so calming. Definitely worth a try!!!

Living Yolates happened in my life when I really needed it, I wanted something more than just yoga, and it had so many elements such as dance, pilates (which I don't like, but know it's good for me!), meditation, breathing, and nature elements. I really appreciate the following of nature, as I live in New York and the seasons are strong, and moods and emotions change so much.

I have done the online Teacher Training in 2023 and I loved every step of it! I learned so much! New techniques but also so much for my inner growth, feeling supported and motivated by Mikkala and Isa all the way! We had a very special retreat in person and the chance to really bond with the group, and try to teach what we learned to each other. It was a mystical experience, a time I will cherish forever! I love how I can now find my own personal style with all this wisdom, - it helps me to expand in whatever direction I want to go. I feel empowered and much more in love with life!

The Living Yolates OTT (Online Teacher Training) has been really great for me, as i live in the Netherlands and still wanted to learn all about dancing, yoga, pilates and energy work from Mikkala and Isa! It has changed me from the inside out, my body feeling stronger and softer at the same time. Bodywork is so powerful in healing your body, mind and spirit. My mind is more stable and although as an empath i still find it difficult to live in this world sometimes, i have learned a lot of tools on how to handle life and also enjoying it! Letting joy and fun entering my life more, as the spiritual world can sometimes be a bit serious. But Living Yolates is all about feeling your feelings, but also about life's pleasures on beautiful Gaia! Mikkala & Isa are both great teachers with a refreshing way of approaching yoga and dance and i have learned a lot from them. Both online and in real life, two beautiful light bulbs who are here to make a difference. I highly recommend Living Yolates (Circle, Workshops and Teacher Trainings)!

This course is full of positive love and light. If you are looking for inner peace and calm, this is a wonderful experience. The welcoming and positive peaceful energy of Mikkala and Isa shine through in the virtual environment. I highly recommend the LYC.

Mikala er altid en kæmpe inspiration og skaber et super trygt rum at bevæge sig i. Hendes undervisning er nærværende, sjov og udviklende. Living Yolates har udvidet min horisont og mit liv på flere planer <3

I have been in the Living Yolates circle for the last 2,5 years as well as done the prenatal yolates and taken the online teacher education. It's the most deep, transforming and loving thing I have ever done for my body and I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a diverse work-out space. It has given me a bigger connection to my body and also been a beautiful way to become stronger and leaner. With the movement, meditations and energy work included in this philosophy I truly feel like I get the full package when it comes to a healthier and more balanced life and mind.

I've been doing Living Yolates off and on for a few years and always enjoy the sessions so much, both the monthly lives and the recorded content (of which there is a new practice or two every week). It really feels like being in the room together with Mikkayla and other practioners and is so personalized to the needs of each of us. I walk away from each and every practice with a smile on my face. Highly recommend.

I can only give five stars to this fantastic experience! A few months after the YTT in Portugal, I still have on my skin the magical feelings that Mikkala and Isa gave us.
It was first of all a formative and intense experience during the months of online training, which allowed me to follow the teachings at a constant and well-paced pace while also coping with life outside the training, and then the "icing on the cake" was the week in Portugal! It was a dream to be able to meet our teachers in person and a group of fantastic women whom I would love to meet again... perhaps at a next workshop around the world... an opportunity to meditate, massage, dance, and connect to our true essence.

Participating in Living Yolates OTT was life changing for me!!!

The training content is comprehensive and well-structured, covering everything from pilates, dance and yoga. Mikkala and Isa are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. They cheer on you the whole way.

What sets this program apart is the sense of community it fosters despite being online. Monthly meetings with fellow participants + Isa and Mikkala made me feel connected and motivated. It's not just a training; it's a family.

The flexibility of the online format allowed me to balance my training with my daily life. The resources provided, including videos, manuals and additional materials were excellent.

I now feel confident and prepared to start my Living Yolates teaching journey. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone passionate about yoga and looking for a top-notch training experience. Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Mikkala Marilyn Kissi, along with Isa Raim, and the entire Living Yolates team have created an authentic, well-studied, intelligent teacher training. Online learning can be hard in our world of technology, but Mikkala and Isa bring the training to life both on screen and off. The opportunity to meet and gather in person is an incredible offering as well that I would highly recommend.

They promise transformation and a pathway to your dreams, and they deliver. If you are an active learner, excited by life and growth, and are ready to be led by experts in the field of holistic movement and lifestyle methods and philosophies, this education is for you!

Isa and Mikkala’s knowledge, expertise, and passion for Living Yolates were truly inspiring.

I felt supported and encouraged the whole time. Their presence and dedication created a safe and nurturing environment that allowed me to grow personally but also as a future teacher.

Joining the OTT has instilled in me an incredible strength and determination to pursue my passion for teaching. It was a turning point in my life that ignited a newfound confidence and drive within me.
