“BV Yoga provided me and my fellow teachers-in-training with the playground, the building blocks and the guidance for our journey through the 200 hour yoga teacher training. We learned to question “what is,” strive for “what is possible,”and create meaningful connections as we explored our personal “truth” and ultimately transformed our lives. I am proud to count myself among the 2011 graduated class of BV Yoga TT.” -Connie Jones

Thanks to the training and the knowledge I have gained I feel so much happier with my life and myself.”

It made me a better sister, daughter, wife, and friend, and helped me re-connect with my heart and inner self.

“Teacher Training for me, was the best opportunity I have ever had to really find and reveal my true self. Just turning 40 in January, it was chance for me finally breakthrough the 39 years of layers and start living life authentically. Teacher Training was more than just the Physical aspect of Yoga, about which at first I was hesitant, due to the fact my practice is only two years old. It was more of the personal and spiritual transformation. Teacher Training is about living your yoga on and off the mat. I see myself differently and the rest of the world differently, with a lighter and peaceful heart. I only wish the whole world could go through this process, it works!!”
-Liz Ross

“The journey of the 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training Program took me from being a person with little power, lack of inspiration, and scared, to blossoming into a person that felt empowered, becoming a teacher that will inspire, and a teacher that will radiantly shine her light to her students and the universe. The program left me knowing that I can be the best teacher I can be therefore having all others in the world striving to be the best they can be. It was well worth the journey. With gratitude, Namaste.“
