    I enjoyed everything about my 200 Hr. YTT! This training was a life changing experience. My life has been enriched by my yoga teachers Emily and Melanie. They are treasures filled with knowledge, compassion, and support. This is an amazing school with a well-rounded education on the 8 limbs of Yoga and more. Darling Yoga is a "safe" yoga community that includes all people and is life affirming.

    Emily Darling and Melanie Nicsinger could not have conducted a more inspiring yoga teaching environment. The material was well presented with fantastic demonstration where needed, and good explanation on the how's and the why's. This was my second YTT and has by far better prepared me to actually teach yoga, and create the setting for safety and comfort of the students that I am teaching. The camaraderie of the class was inspiring and there was a bond built that will certainly last well beyond the end of training program. I would highly recommend Darling Yoga to anyone that has a serious desire to not only go through the YTT process, but has the intention to teach. I am grateful for the experience.

    I could not be happier with my choice to do my 200hr YTT at Darling Yoga. The community is amazing. The teaching was thorough and I truly felt prepared to teach when I graduated. I will forever be grateful.

    I highly recommend the Darling Yoga Teacher Training program! The program is well-rounded, the instructors are amazing, and I am grateful for the experience that not only deepened my own practice, but instilled a desire to pursue teaching to share my passion for yoga with others.

    Darling Yoga provided a very well rounded educational experience for the 200 hour teacher training. The information provided was thorough, with lots of hands of hands on experience. The training touched on a diverse range of yogic education, providing both the foundational basics and various educational texts to further our development. The training was a safe and secure place, giving the opportunity to open ourselves fully to the experience. Darling Yoga prepared us to go out and teach, as well as providing us a overwhelmingly supportive and positive community.

    Darling did an incredible job at preparing me for teaching, and taught from the roots of Yoga by incorporating the ancient philosophies of the practice as well as how to teach in modern day. I would recommend this program to anyone looking to deepen their practice and/or eventually become a teacher.
