I'm much more inspired to develop my ever evolving and consistent yoga practice as a supplement to my personal, professional and spiritual life. The most unique experience for me was that I wasn't totally confident I could ever truly teach yoga...I was more in it for personal development I would say. The way the training was laid out and the encouragement to consider how yoga can authentically benefit so many people with both their internal and physical journey really caught my attention and quite honestly opened me up to a new direction in my own life I hadn't considered. I now know that yoga, like the qi arts in TCM, is a discipline and practice that is both scientific and artful and a wonderful way to open up the whole of human life to a person including the twilight years of this existence. As a mental health practitioner, I know that if I could help someone access yoga for themselves it would only benefit any other work they would want to do in order to be mentally resilient and emotionally regulated as well. - JJ

I've changed throughout this 200 hour course. I always hoped to be a little bit less sharp around the edges and that just shifted in a natural way. I really enjoyed how the course emphasized philosophy, history, theory, therapeutics and the fact that yoga is different for every body. I loved to learn about philosophy. I fell in love with Yoga Nidra and I found my new path in restorative yoga.

I enjoyed the 200-Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Program! I felt like a kid in a candy store - there is a yoga class for every mood and every occasion: chakra balancing, dosha balancing, active, gentle, restorative, teaching solid foundations and alignment, funky and playful, yin and the ball rolling. There is meditation, pranayama, yoga nidra and philosophy as well. I've been into yoga and meditation for 20 years and still I am learning so much! This is the most holistic and well-designed program I could have ever imagined and I teach online classes at a major university so I don't say this lightly. Zoom calls are great and practice teach pairing is helpful and unlimited mentoring calls are very appreciated. Plus, I get access to all the videos for the rest of my life! Wow, I feel like there is enough info there for me to learn from for the next 10 years! And the gentle encouragement from all the teachers is amazing.- Inessa, Graduate of the 200-Hour Online Yoga Teacher Training Program

This is a beautiful start for anyone looking for a yoga teacher training. I really enjoyed the lovely meditations, yoga sequencing and history of the practice. I also loved learning more about restorative and yin yoga. I am sending a big shout-out to all the amazing mentors- Liz, Molly, Peggy and Sam… you are amazing! Thank you. Yoga is so much more beautiful than I realized after going through this training and I plan to keep learning as I continue onward in my life. - Jazmin

The opportunity to participate in a yoga teacher training program was a complete surprise, given my career path, and that it taught by such an amazing person who shares so many of my values was an incredible gift. This training with Soma Yoga Institute not only helped me deepen my physical practice in yoga, but gave me tools to bring what inspired me on my mat to the rest of my life. I have Liz to thank for this invaluable experience, and I'm truly grateful for the opportunity I had here.

My yoga teacher training blew my mind. It was better than I even dreamed. Liz and Jess were very knowledgeable, fun and patient. The location was magic. My heart was opened and I left feeling confident I could teach a class in my own voice. -Audrey

I had a wonderful experience with this program. The teachers were compassionate and patient, which was especially helpful as I dealt with anxiety and personal pain. Thanks to their kindness, I successfully achieved my Yoga Certification. The Ball Rolling course was amazing and provided great relief for my plantar fasciitis. The anatomy courses were mind-blowing, teaching me valuable insights about my body and safe movement. Among the favorites were Restorative and Yin, as they allowed me to attain peace of mind and a more relaxed body. Highly recommended! - Simone
