Testimonials
"Will Duncan is a remarkable teacher. He has brought immense clarity and simplicity to my practice by transforming complicated scriptures, concepts, and ideas into tangible, timely, and applicable thoughts and tasks. In every class I have attended he has brought candor, authenticity, good humour, and incredibly effective tools that have catapulted my spiritual practice to new levels... "
Hali Biuso - Charity Relations Coordinator, Benevity, Inc
“Will Duncan walked around a podium for nearly two hours while we sat rapt, hanging on his every word… I was intrigued before I heard him talk, and I left in awe, admiration, and deep appreciation.”
Marieke Slovin

Matt Immergut PhD, Associate Professor S.U.N.Y. Purchase
Will Duncan is a Buddhist Badass. He delivers two things simultaneously: entertainment and the possibility of true aim-attainment. If you are looking to make and sustain an inner shift, GO hear him!
Darren Rhodes, Author, Director of YogaOasis, in Tucson, AZ and Founder of YogaHour.
Will Duncan takes on the goal of opening eyes and opening hearts in talks, discussions and teachings on Dharma. He has studied many traditional practices and uses each one to go deeper on the path of awakening. His charm, character and devotion are his tools and consciousness his field. In the end what he reveals is the exquisite beauty of human beings.
Lisa Schrempp, Authorized Level 2 Ashtanga Teacher, Founder of Ashtanga Yoga Tucson
“Will Duncan leaves such a deep impression on my university students. He taps into spiritual essentials in ways that resonate with them regardless of their religious background. At the end of every semester in which he has guest lectured the students course evaluations come back saying that the class he taught was their favorite! "
Karen Borek, PhD, Department of Religious Studies and Classics, University of Arizona
“Thus far, the ultimate highlight was listening to Will Duncan speak. His talk with us made me think of religion as a whole in a way that I had never considered before: that each religion is just trying to get you to wake up to a life filled with joy on a much deeper level than just immediate, sensory pleasing joy. I really enjoyed that it included an approach in consideration of all religions, not just Christianity or Buddhism or any other religion, as it seemed to put an equalizing twist on all religions, as opposed to making any one seem more focused on the aspect of awakening and enlightenment. For me personally, Will’s talk made me think about how I view my own personal spiritual journey as well as how I view the perspective of people who consider themselves to not be on any sort of spiritual journey.”
University of Arizona college student
A true master at mixing charitable laughter and gracious humility, Will Duncan makes the long road of awakening fun and accessible. His deep knowledge of wisdom teachings is matched by the compassion of his wit and candor. Learning with Will is a chance to polish one's suffering with good-hearted humor.

“Saturday night after Buddhist teacher, Will Duncan’s, talk, I was awake for hours…He was amazing! As he imparts wisdom, Will already exudes that wonderful combination of mental discipline and humorous lightheartedness that I have come to associate with the very best Tibetan teachers.”
