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.

  In 2020, I completed the online live yoga certification course offered by Heartwood Yoga Institute and Retreats, along with a friend. This experience was truly transformative. The instructors demonstrated remarkable knowledge and consistently prioritized creating a comfortable and supportive atmosphere for all participants. As a result, I've developed a deep connection with them and now consider them part of my extended family, always available to provide guidance on yoga instruction and practice. The variety of classes offered is extensive and caters to individuals of all skill levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners. Embracing yoga through this empathetic approach has had a profound impact on me, leading to improved physical development, enhanced flexibility, and reduced stress. Furthermore, the workshops and wellness programs provided comprehensive insights into yoga and holistic well-being. I highly recommend Heartwood Yoga Institute and Retreats for anyone who wants to improve their yoga teaching practice in a caring and supportive setting.

  I couldn’t be more pleased with the training and support I received and continue to be able to receive from the staff at Heartwood. Would highly recommend and encourage anyone to receive any training they could there. I am looking forward to my next one!

  I loved my class of ladies that I did this training with, age ranging from 20-60's and all different backgrounds. The immersion was a great experience to bond and learn in person.

  I chose Heartwood Yoga Institute after doing online research. I found my passion for yoga in my mid 50's. Yoga helped me mentally and physically. I was obsessed and really wanted to learn more. I decided I wanted to become trained as a yoga teacher. I was not sure what I would do with the training at that time, but did want to pursue it. I had no idea what school to attend. I was hesitant about enrolling at my age. Once I did some research and found a school that offered a 200 YTT for 50+, I signed up. I am extremely happy that I found Heartwood Yoga Institute. The teachers are passionate about what they teach. The school and property is located at beautiful and inspirational center in Bradenton, FL.
