Check out highlights over the years

Going through the yoga teacher training process can be a life changing experience. Doing a YTT is so much more than a physical yoga or technical teaching experience. Over the course of the year, the students have an amazing opportunity to make strong connections with one another. They bond and learn how to uplift one another as they work on building their self-confidence, communication skills, patience and mental strength.
