The Hatha Teacher Training program with Barb Leese was one of the best experiences of my life. Barb takes her students on an inward journey of self-discovery and awareness. Her gentle and confident teaching style and incredible knowledge of all aspects of yoga make this program a safe and inclusive place for her students to grow and flourish as they aspire to be teachers and forever students of not only yoga but of life.

I recently completed the 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training program with Barb Leese and Cheri DeMenna via The Yogashala in Waterdown. I cannot say enough about this program, the studio, everyone who works there and how much my life has changed. I signed up for the program just a few short months into my time at the studio. After my first class with Cheri and my first class with Barb, I felt so encouraged to keep going on my yoga journey and inspired to learn more. I didn’t initially plan to go onto become a teacher, I simply wanted to deepen my yoga practice, but Barb, Cheri and the whole team offered me so much support that I had to at least try. Since completing the in-class portion of the course in March, I was able to finish my practicum hours within a few months, am now certified as a RYT-200 and teach yoga a couple times a week, both at a local studio and at work to my colleagues. I am so excited about where my yoga journey will take me and have already signed up for my next course with Barb. If you’re thinking about joining, even just curious, I highly recommend you get in touch with Barb and Cheri. Namaste, Felicia Deonarain HBA, MEd, TESL, RYT-200 Full Review
