Student Reviews
“True Self Yoga’s 200 Hour Teacher Training offers students a well rounded experience to prepare them to teach yoga. They provide an excellent balance of practical yoga instruction, anatomy, yogic philosophy, and personal growth opportunities. I would recommend this program to anyone looking to take a deep dive into self-exploration to prepare to teach yoga while holding sacred space to support the practice of others.”
— 2026 Graduate“I undertook this training in order to deepen my practice but I wasn’t expecting a transformative experience that would bring new depth to every aspect of my life. As someone in their 70’s used to a gentle practice, I knew the asanas would be challenging but I also knew that the only expectations to be overcome would be my own. To be steeped in yoga philosophy, history, anatomy, asanas, and meditation and guided by wise and gentle (but challenging) teachers was an extraordinary experience.”
— 2026 Graduate“I would recommend True Self’s YTT for the clear thought and care that has been put into the development of the program, for the excellent variety of instructors, for the community that you build, and especially for the personal transformation you will surely go through. I challenge anyone to leave this program the same person they were when they started it! I also believe that you leave this program truly excited to find the avenue where yoga will take you next.”
