As part of the Yoga Alliance Social Credentialing system, teachers that register with Yoga Alliance must submit a review of the RYS training program they completed.

Feedback from trainees provides Registered Yoga Schools with the opportunity to understand their trainees’ experiences in order to continually improve their trainings.

By choosing to display comments, schools enable trainees to provide insight into a school’s culture and training which helps potential trainees choose the right teacher training for their individual path with yoga.

  I had a wonderful training experience at Thrive Yoga and I look forward to completing my 300 hour training next year. I secured a job teaching prior to graduating from the program due to the reputation Susan and Thrive carry in my community. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to teach or deepen their practice.

  I felt seen and heard by the instructors, and I appreciated the support I felt.

  An excellent training program with thorough instruction and mentorship. It was a great balance of introductory to the philosophy and history of yoga as well as hands on instruction and Asana labs.

  The Thrive Yoga 300 hour teacher training helped me accomplish my goal of being a yoga teacher whose classes are rich with philosophy, meditation, pranayama and hands-on assisting. Susan Mondi Bowen is a true guru. Her team is incredibly knowledgeable and so generous with their gifts. Ugonma Fontaine gave us Reiki 1 & 2 training. She’s a phenomenal energy healer. Felicia Piacente gave us asana lab and helped us all learn—and become comfortable teaching—poses I had thought were impossible. Ashira Lavine taught us Conscious Connected Breathwork, a profound healing experience. There was much more, but those were the highlights. As trainees, we also learned from each other. Each of my classmates’ projects and workshops delivered an impressive body of knowledge in many interesting topics, including Rocket, Kundalini, sound healing, yoga for a healthy back and arial silks. I really didn’t want the training to end, so I’ve continued at Thrive with Ugonma’s life-changing Energy Medicine training. Thrive is a wonderful community that I hope to stay connected to for the rest of my life.

  Thrive not only provided me with a holistic understanding of how to properly teach Asanas, but also went into depth on Yoga philosophy and how to incorporate themes/ pillars into my classes. I am so happy with my choice of training through this studio!
