Being a part of the 200 Hour Teacher Training Program at New York Yoga was such a positive, rewarding experience. The program is so well rounded, covering a wide range of topics, from developing a safe and challenging asana sequence, to understanding the deeper meaning of the practice of yoga. Not to mention the closeness and support received from the Program Director and fellow trainees. I always loved going to training each weekend. It was one of the best things I have ever done!”
