Student Testimonial: LaRae | Online Training

Her Experience in Our Online Trauma-Informed Yoga Teacher Training

I am so grateful for the online format making this training accessible to me! I have wanted to complete a 200-hour certification for years now, but finding a training that could be done without conflicting with my work schedule was not possible until I came upon Yoga School Institute’s offerings.

As a graduate student of psychology, I was impressed by the union of Western science and Eastern healing, taught within this course.

My first instinct is to say that I am coming out the other side of this training a whole new person, but upon deeper introspection, I am realizing that this training rather peeled back layer after layer, one by one, to reveal the deepest, oldest, truest core of me that has been there all along, since before I was born and onward to forever. 

During this training, I learned that we may not get to choose what life hands us, but, fortunately, we get to choose what we do with it. Scars and all, traumatized, and alchemized, I am my own proudest accomplishment.

“If your journey brings you to a choice between love and fear, choose love.” – Katrina Kenison

If you are in the field of trauma recovery, this is without a doubt the continuing education training for you!
