GoogleI had wanted to become certified in teaching meditation for several years and researched/vetted several programs. I chose to move forward with the Path's certification program and was not disappointed! The lead teachers are excellent, supportive, and passionate about the content they are teaching. In addition to this, I have learned a great deal from the classes and truly feel ready to lead my own meditation class and guide private clients. Dina, the founder of the Path, is truly a unique and amazing human being. Completing a teaching certification from the Path is more than just learning how to teach meditation; it is a series of master classes on how to live a better life and for some, truly heal. I highly recommend the Path for any classes in which someone may be interested.
I received my meditation teacher training from The Path and it was one of most enlightening and fun classes I’ve ever taken. Dina Kaplan creates a learning space that is safe, supportive and fun. Since getting my certification, I’ve guided privately for corporate leaders as well as groups in the creative arts. My confidence and knowledge of mindfulness was all due to the training and practice I received at The Path. In addition to the teacher training, the class also deepened my own practice and that I will always be grateful for.
Hello 👋🏾 recent grad here! lol I want to say with the outmost openness of my heart that The Path has truly changed me for the better. I know many are here seeking to learn about meditation and mindfulness, which you certainly will with Dina as your instructor who is just an inspiring and joyful spirit. However, on the last day of class I was presented with something profound. Something much more than just learning about meditation. This course had shown me something I least expected. I learned about myself. If you're looking to ascend to a higher version of self to create an impact on others using the tools of mindfulness meditation, THE PATH is the place for you! The greatest wisdom is the wisdom of self, and this course undoubtedly presents you that.
Dina Kaplan truly lives what she teaches. She has created a meditation school and community that radiates authenticity. The genuine connections she cultivates with her students come from her deep embodiment of the Buddhist principles she shares. I’ve participated in many trainings over the years, and this one has been the most practical, grounded, and relatable. I highly recommend The Path to anyone even slightly interested in deepening their personal practice—or to those who feel called to lead. The staff is incredibly accessible, supportive, and kind. This experience has been profoundly valuable to me.
I just went to Dina Kaplan and The Path’s mini retreat in Los Angeles, and I was blown away - I go to a lot of spiritual and mindfulness-related events, and Dina is really an exceptional meditation guide - she is clear, warm, extremely well studied and spoken - but she is also an incredible facilitator. She had a big group to manage and yet everyone got to contribute, and felt very seen and cared for. It was also great to meet people in this community which is so special- if you have chance to join a retreat or the Meditation Teacher Training that The Path leads - I say go for it - you’ll absolutely love it. I’m so glad I joined tonight!
