“YogaLife Institute’s programs are comprehensive. The Teacher Training program goes well beyond the basics. Along with learning how to safely teach and sequence different types of classes, you will go in depth with learning the philosophy of yoga and how to practically apply it in daily life. As a result of engaging with these teachings, I find that I am less stressed, even in the midst of chaos. The instructors make understanding the material accessible, practical, and fun.”

"Participating in the YogaLife Teacher training program during this unprecedented time of covid was very helpful! It was an opportunity to dedicate my energy to something productive, healing and uplifting and to have designated times to be on the mat. I don't know if I would have been able to complete a YTT program while in my present line of work without the online learning option and it's been great to have the YogaLife book resources to refer back to. I started teaching yoga virtually as soon as I graduated the program, and clients have provided feedback that they feel less anxiety and have a deeper connection with their body, noticing physical discomfort and adjusting accordingly throughout the day.”

“After my first training with YogaLife, I knew I had ‘come home’ to something I had been searching for ... myself. Over the years, I have completing more than 700 hours of yoga teacher and yoga therapy training, and I am a successful yoga teacher and studio owner. I have always appreciated that the training programs at YogaLife are rooted in the tradition of classical yoga, but taught in a way that is meaningful for modern living. I highly recommend YogaLife for in-depth yoga teacher training, continuing education or simply to grow your personal practice.”

“As an executive coach for over 10 years, I was finding more and more leaders seeking support in health, wellness, stress management, and work/life balance challenges. In researching a deeper yoga understanding, I found the Yoga Therapy program at YogaLife Institute. This program provided me with a new way of thinking and a deeper level of self-awareness; and, of course, my clients benefitted from this learning journey too. Unlike yoga teacher training, this program addressed evidence-based research, offered yoga tools and techniques that support the whole person, and introduced skills that meet the client where he/she is: providing space, educating and allowing clients to find their optimal self today and their desired self tomorrow. The teaching team is the real deal. I am grateful for their dedication and sharing of knowledge.”
