I was planning to do a RYT 200 for so long and I am very happy that I decided to do it with Frog Lotus International! From the moment I contacted them with a lot of questions until the last class at the center, it was a wonderful experience! All the teachers were extremely good and experienced (Lisa, Katrina, and Vidya). The focus on alignment and safety makes a huge difference with other trainings. And the expectations to deliver two yoga classes during the course was the best because you really need to work on them and learn by doing! A unique learning experience. I highly recommend this school! Full Review
