    I am so thankful that I chose Heartwood's two week immersion class for my RYS200. What an incredibly strong program- and I am now even stronger because of it.

I couldn’t be more grateful for the two weeks I just spent living and learning at Heartwood Yoga Institute. I left the immersive teacher training program with so much more than a certificate. More than a head full of poses. My chatty mind was soothed by meditative, centering moments. My heart grew full from diving deep into yogic philosophies that have guided and united millions of people over thousands of years. I’m inspired to “reach for something higher” both on and off the mat. Spending this time with like-minded (and even like-aged) people was one of the most unique experiences of my life. I highly recommend Heartwood to anyone — for a class, a weekend workshop or an immersive teacher training. You’ll leave truly fulfilled. Full Review
