Bellevue College, Rachel Lowe, and the entire 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training Program staff provided exceptional education and training. The knowledge I gained from the experienced teachers in yoga philosophy, anatomy, kinesiology, coaching, and of course all things asana was far beyond my expectations. The courses weren't easy but the instructors were there for us every step of the way and the education I received was well worth the hard work it took to complete the program.

The training at Bellevue College was very well rounded. It introduced all aspects of the 8 Limbs of Yoga along with a rigorous kinesiology class. The lead instructor, Rachel Lowe was very kind, flexible and knowledgeable.

Bellevue Community College Yoga Teacher Training offers a holistic, rigorous program which incorporates yoga philosophies, history, Yamas, wellness, nutrition, and human anatomy. My instructors were knowledgeable, inspiring master teachers from all over greater Seattle, and I left the program confident that I established a strong foundation from which to begin my teaching endeavors. A truly exceptional yoga teacher training experience!

The Bellevue College Yoga Teacher Training program was very insightful. The instructors are well experienced, communicative, and knowledgeable, and I was able to apply what knowledge I already learned from previous practice and widen it immensely.

The main teacher for this program, Rae, is absolutely amazing. She is a patient soul who really cares about her students and works hard to cover a lot of material. Our readings and discussions of philosophy were interesting and the guest speakers kept things interesting and offered additional insights. My only complaint is that because this course is tied to the college, several other courses are required that seem unnecessary and some of the test taking and assignments for these non-yoga courses can be a struggle for some students depending on your learning style and time available, however it was an overall good experience and the format and class frequency fit in with my lifestyle and other commitments.
