Feedback from our Course Graduates

Participating in Sasha and Aranka's Hot Yoga Teacher Training has been one of the best investments I have ever made. Not only have I acquired skills that I can market, I have invested in my own health and well being. Their teaching was effective, patient and thorough and has prepared me to guide my own class confidently. My own yoga practice has deepened and I have gained an understanding and interest in developing a meditation practice. I highly recommend the Teacher Training Program for anyone who wants to teach yoga as a career or simply who wants to deepen their practice and expand their knowledge and experience. Illuminating!

It was a great course to take to be a yoga instructor. I learned not only teaching yoga postures but yoga philosophy and history which I became more interested in during the course.
I also gained some knowledge about other yoga styles, and got interested in learning them, though hot yoga is the primary yoga style I'm going to teach.
Sasha and Aranka are very knowledgeable and encouraging. I was sometimes disappointed with myself since I had a hard time remembering dialogs and learning teaching, however they encouraged me and gave me some useful and practical advice. It was a great experience and gave me confidence.
I recommend this course to someone who is seeking an opportunity to learn more about yoga.

Thanks, Mie

If you have ever dreamed of instructing yoga, would like to take your practice to the next level or are just interested in learning more about yoga and meditation, this hot yoga teacher training course is for you. I achieved all of the above by completing this course, and moreover, have never been happier in my life.
Sasha and Aranka are two of the best teachers I have ever come across and they inspired me to become a teacher myself. With their wisdom, patience and creativity, they trained me to teach with confidence and knowledge.
The teacher training course has also taught me to become my own teacher by giving me the tools to self-correct in postures and to maintain a meditative state during practice. Furthermore, this course has taught me how yoga affects every single aspect of the body and has shown me how to incorporate meditation into even the busiest of my days. Thanks Sasha and Aranka- you have changed my life!
