“Taking a training or class from Britta von Tagen is a truly magical experience. As a trainer, Britta powerfully blends the joy of child-like play and exploration with the intensity and focus of a master who has spent a life-time dedicated to her craft. She enlists the “help” of fantastical and magical “characters” who join the training to lead trainees on a magical journey into deeper relationship with themselves. As a teacher, Britta invites her students to access and experience the deepest, strongest, most powerful aspects of themselves and bring them to light. I can say that, personally, it has been a true honor and privilege to study with Britta through belts and workshops and classes. My relationship with Nia has deepened profoundly because her teaching and guidance.”
“The Blue Belt with Britta in 2012 – words cannot capture the richness of that incredible life- changing experience.”
