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. Full Review
