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 loved my TT at We Are One Flow Yoga with Melissa. Growing up & starting my practice in a yoga world where most teachers looked a certain way, I never thought I could ever be a teacher because I "looked" so different from all of these "idealized" women. I also had a very different mindset; much more down-to-earth and functional. Upon beginning classes with Melissa who did not fit this previous mold, it was extremely refreshing and motivating for my practice & for life in general. Then, after a traumatic event in my life, Mel approached me with the TT and I immediately registered. It was my therapy in more ways than one and not only prepared me to be a creative, intuitive & compassionate yoga teacher, but also to be an advocate for future teachers who don't fit the common stereotype. The entire training was emotional yet inspirational, challenging yet expansive. I cannot recommend enough.

The scope of knowledge, though vast, was delivered clearly. All materials handed out and used will be referenced again and again.

My yoga teacher training changed my life. Not only did I leave prepared to teach yoga, I left with new perspectives and experiences that cannot be described.

Melissa Martinez-Chauvin and the teachers at her sangha incredible. Her teaching style is gentle and effective. She holds and facilitates space from her heart, cares deeply about the students and has so much to offer. It would be an honor to continue education with her Yoga School and is always an honor to practice with her.
