Student Reviews

Spending so much time daily in meditation and asana really allowed me to move through my emotions in a healthy way and positively impacted my life in ways I cannot fully express in words. My personal yoga practice has deepened and strengthened and will in turn impact the way in which I guide others. Learning more about balancing my chakras has helped me to ground into my body more and out of my head. When I started this course I was at a challenging time in my life and often easily overwhelmed by emotions as a result. I am now more connected to my intuition, more grounded and able to flow through life with more ease and trust as a result of what I learned through this course. The last thing I will say is that the 200 hour online YTT course has helped me to show up more authentically. Still a work in progress, but I have more patience and am more loving overall. I've been able to shed and release a lot of energy that no longer served me. - 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Graduate

This program is amazing! Thank you so much for creating such a beautiful and thoughtful program. I am so grateful for the opportunity to represent my community with this therapeutic practice! I truly enjoyed the personal study combined with the community meeting aspect of this course. I got the best of both worlds! I also enjoyed having Liz as my mentor. She made me feel safe, supported and kept me focused on my goal. When I started this course, I was going through some major transitions. I was able to use what I learned from my course and cohort in my own life to navigate tough situations and keep going. I gained tools that I will use for the rest of my life and I am excited to share them with other students! I loved learning about the gentle yoga practices using props because in modern yoga I never saw that representation! This course provided options that were inclusive and that is so important to me as a yoga teacher to provide for my students. - 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Graduate

This 200 Hour Online yoga teacher training was a perfect fit for me. It included the elements I was looking for in a yoga teacher training like anatomy, safety, history & philosophy, therapeutics and much, much more. Ialso enjoyed the self-paced learning while also having aweekly guideline to follow. I believe that the instructors were especially excellent and their individual diversity in methods added to the training as a whole. Completing this 16 week course while working full time gave me a real sense of accomplishment. It broadened my understanding of yoga in ways that I could not have imagined. This led to a much deeper personal yoga practice for me. I am so appreciative to Soma Yoga Institute for this course which is fulfilling the desire of my heart to teach yoga. I will be going back through the content to absorb and continue learning often in the future. - 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Graduate

I am so happy the universe aligned me with this fantastic training. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a deeply caring modality. All teachers demonstrate their passion for yoga in different ways and their dedication and continuing education is evident. The heavy emphasis on anatomy helped me better understand the importance of alignment. I really appreciated the extensive restorative modules as it is a form of yoga I am passionate about. My personal practice, as well as my life in general, now will have a deeper emphasis on ahimsa. I feel much more confident in providing a safe, learning environment for others to experience yoga and look forward to learning from other yogis in my lifelong journey. - 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Graduate

This entire training program was a true delight. What I loved most of all is that each lesson was taught with authenticity, honesty, and a whole lot of heart. Throughout the entire delivery of the content, the history of Yoga became a guiding light that revealed deeper layers of meaning and nuance. When choosing a Yoga teacher training program, this was of the utmost importance to me and I always felt that true Yogic tradition was honored in so much of the experience. Practically, I loved that there were 6 live calls as they provided such enriching and informative content. Additionally, I got paired with an amazing practice teach partner who helped me build my motivation and confidence as a new Yoga teacher. Most of all, I am eternally grateful for my mentorship pairing with Sam. Sam is a constant source of wisdom, inspiration, and passion for all things Yoga! To be able to learn from her is a gift and I know that our talks along the way helped me get to the finish line with ease and grace. This entire experience has been truly fulfilling and I am so appreciative of all of the time, effort, and energy put into the makings of this YTT. - 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Graduate

Through this 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training my entire understanding of yoga has turned upside down. My personal yoga practice is now inquiry-based and about the deepest kind of listening to myself I've experienced to date. It has introduced a meditation practice to my life that is transformational. I feel like I can confidently take my practice out into the world and share this beautiful gift with others. More importantly, the program has created a deep foundational personal practice of yoga that will ground my body, mind, and spirit for the rest of my life. I couldn't be more grateful for this program. - 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Graduate

"I enjoyed the self-paced nature of the work, the focus on what is right and beautiful, and the incorporation of anatomy concepts during the online yoga teacher training. It brought a teaching perspective to yoga, which I hadn't anticipated being so different from the perspective of the student. I learned that coming to class, you have to bring tremendous flexibility, open-mindedness, and loving kindness. Interestingly, I came to understand that this is something I could bring as a student, too. I increased my confidence level in teaching. I enjoyed the unit about anatomy, I liked becoming familiar with concepts that could be used to ground yoga in the physical realm. Because one of my teaching goals is to bring yoga to those who aren't familiar with it, I thought this was a valuable skill to bring ideas that might seem lofty and unapproachable down to earth. I do recommend this training to others because I like the integrative and purposeful approach that the teachers have towards teaching and being a yogi." - Online Yoga Teacher Training

This training has reinforced my decision to share yoga with others, equipping me with the knowledge, confidence, and tools to guide and support others on their own yoga journeys. It has strengthened my belief that yoga is not just about movement—it's a practice of healing, connection, and self-discovery. I truly enjoyed the flexibility of this program, allowing me to work at my own pace while deeply absorbing the material. The curriculum was well-structured and comprehensive, covering everything from anatomy to sequencing and philosophy in a way that felt both practical and enriching. The teachers were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and supportive, always providing insightful guidance. I also appreciated the emphasis on self-reflection and personal growth, which helped me not only develop my teaching skills but also deepen my own practice. More than just the physical benefits, my practice has also deepened my self-awareness and emotional regulation, which has positively influenced my relationships. These profound changes in my own life inspired me to delve deeper into yoga beyond just personal practice. I realized that if yoga could bring so much transformation to my life, I wanted to study it further so that I could share its benefits with others. Overall, it was an engaging, well-organized, and transformative experience that has given me confidence as a future yoga teacher. - Yan Liu - Online Yoga Teacher Training

I think the emphasis on yoga for everyone with modifications really helped me. Before this teacher training I was too focused on getting the asanas to look a certain way and was always hard on myself for not being able to do a certain pose. This course has been good for my personal practice for allowing me to be more accepting.- 200 Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Graduate
