“Cynthia Hauk is super knowledgeable about mindfulness, mindful art... and so many other healing modalities. I've learned so much from her and, more importantly, I appreciate her kindness, support, patience, and ability to hold space for her students/ community. I feel so much more comfortable facilitating group workshops and helping others appreciate the healing benefits of mindful art. This is a supportive, collaborative, non-judgmental space for learning, creating and finding your voice. Last but certainly not least, you will hone YOUR creative practice, through kindness, accountability and inspiration. My biggest "aha" moment was discovering that creating -- and sticking to -- S.M.A.R.T. goals when it comes to planning workshops is the key for me. I have the tendency to become overwhelmed by creative projects, and the "slow and steady, little by little" approach that Cynthia models was a game-changer.” - Madeleine Adamson, Toronto, Canada

“I appreciated Cynthia's expertise, openness, and heart-centered facilitation. I've been facilitating group sessions for years, but... Cynthia Hauk provides a process for holding integrated circles, which, for me, feels like the key to unlocking previously unopened doors. For me, things truly clicked when I realised that it's not only about teaching what you know, it's also healthy to have a mentor who's been where you are. Joining the community has been so beneficial for me. I've met people from across the globe that I've learned and bounced off of, and those people have become my friends.” - Dana M., Scotland, UK

“What I appreciated most about the Teacher Training was the calm and deliberate approach Cynthia presented in her video lessons. She was clear and precise in her manner and the written lessons were also clearly presented. I also appreciated her knowledge and experience with the topics. The biggest 'aha' moment was during the meditative visual art creations. I found such comfort in doing some of the activities and the release I felt afterwards.” - Linda Kallas, CA, USA

"I was SO excited when Cynthia Hauk’s Mindful Art Teacher Training went live! Cynthia’s training did not disappoint. The course training was laid out in a thoughtfully progressive manner and the beautiful module workbooks continue to be resources I return to again and again. Cynthia’s approach is affirming and compassionate, and the coaching calls really allowed for meaningful personal connection and benefit from her authentic guidance and support." - Rynn Burkett, TX, USA

"I can't say enough about the value of this course. It expanded and grounded my daily art practice, gave me time saving tools to stay consistent, has given me the confidence and tools to teach both these art practices and simple meditations, as well as the courage to think about exploring my own ideas to share. Sharing art practices for all and meditation have been things I wanted to take courses on but couldn't justify the expense or time commitment - Cynthia makes it attainable in so many ways, all in one. Thank you." - Beth Welch, USA

“Cynthia Hauk is so thoughtful about everything that she does. Her interaction with the students during zoom sessions has inspired ME in my own interaction with others when conducting classes on-line. She makes the on-line experience feel so personal...I really felt like I got to know Cynthia as a teacher and the other students as my peers. Lovely experience! The work process is a perfect blend of self-paced independent work and regular on-line sessions that incorporate live coaching. The on-line sessions surprised me most because they were so very interactive. The introspective aspect of the mindful art was my "aha" moment. As a working artist and art teacher, it has guided me to introduce my own students to a more meaningful process with their work, and has helped me as an artist to be more regular in my creative practice.” - Libby L., TN, USA

“I enjoyed this Mindful Art Teacher Training more than I even anticipated. I appreciated that it used a self-study pace, so I was able to do the modules at a pace that fit what was already happening in my life. Cynthia has a very open and engaging presence and that definitely came through in the videos, as well as the written aspects of the training. This training uses a format which encourages you to work through the exercises on your own: awakening your own creativity and self-reflection. Then, you take the modalities and exercises that speak to you and create workshops so that you can share these creative spaces with others. There is a very clear and complete workshop format to use as you are able to develop your own offerings.” - Trish Webb, Haarlem, Netherlands
