General Comments
I highly recommend White Lotus Foundation for any Teacher Training Certification. I received my 200-hour certification at the White Lotus Foundation Teacher Training in 2016 with Kent Bond and Sven Holcomb. This was a 16-day immersion filled with incredible insights and impactful information. Lectures and classes with Ganga White and Tracey Rich as well as guest speakers are all part of the sweet nectar this training offered. I loved the non-dogmatic approach that integrates both the Art and Science of Yoga. As I continue to evolve in my yogic journey both as a teacher and as a student, I am grateful for the strong foundational knowledge I received in yoga philosophy, asana, pranayama, anatomy and alignment principles, and Sanskrit from the White Lotus Foundation. Located in the hills above Santa Barbara, the ground on which White Lotus sits deeply nourishes the mind, body, and soul. The vegetarian meals all lovingly crafted and cooked in house were amazing. Sleeping accommodations were peaceful and comfortable. Attendees from all over the world lend to learning from one another and giving us a variety of perspectives. I am so grateful for the people who were involved in this very special part of my journey; I have many long-lasting friendships and will forever cherish my experience at White Lotus Foundation.
