Coleman
"I am very grateful for the Ekah Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) Program. The hybrid approach (Zoom and in-person) provided opportunities to learn in multiple environments and connect with fellow students outside of formal class. I also appreciated the six week duration of the training because it provided a reasonable pace in which to absorb the wide range of material while also working a full-time job. All of the teachers were knowledgeable and brought their unique perspectives to the training. I completed the training feeling well-prepared and excited to start teaching my own classes. Thank you for building this interesting and challenging YTT program!"
