What It’s Really Like to Join a 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training - Stories from Our Alumni

Thinking about joining a yoga teacher training but not sure if it’s the right step for you? You're not alone. So many of our students started exactly where you are - curious, inspired, maybe even a little unsure.

That’s why we want to share something special with you: real stories from our graduates.
These are people who followed that quiet nudge, took the leap, and let this journey change them in ways they never expected.

In their own words and voices, they reflect on the experience of our 200-hour hybrid Hatha & Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training - from the initial doubts to the joyful breakthroughs, from the online sessions to the deep in-person retreat.

We hope their stories help you feel into whether this path might be right for you, too.

Katharina - “It was a life-changing experience.”

From the very beginning, Katharina described the training as warm, heartfelt, and profound. The structure allowed her to fit the course into her daily life - and yet, the transformation it sparked was anything but ordinary.

“You can’t go back from here. So many gates opened. So many universes revealed themselves.”

She felt safe with the guidance of knowledgeable teachers, held by a supportive community, and deeply inspired by what she discovered - not just about yoga, but about herself.

Ritika - “This training felt pure, generous, and deeply rooted in tradition.”

Ritika joined our teacher training after first experiencing one of our retreats. What drew her in? The generosity, the openness, and the way we share the teachings - not just from a place of knowledge, but from the heart.

“Every class, every weekend left an impression on me - something I’ll carry with me forever. The way philosophy, anatomy, asana, pranayama, and meditation were all woven together was just beautiful.”

Ritika is now teaching yoga regularly in Berlin. For her, this training wasn’t just about gaining skills - it was about connection, authenticity, and embodying what yoga truly is.

Carmina - “It’s not just about asana, it’s a complete experience.”

What drew Carmina to this training was its depth. She was looking for something beyond posture - something that honoured the full spectrum of yoga.

“I loved that this training included all aspects of yoga. The environment was so supportive and non-competitive - everyone was allowed to blossom in their own time.”

She also appreciated the diversity of the teaching team and how each class brought a fresh perspective. Her experience was one of growth, authenticity, and community.

Dinara - “This training respects the roots of yoga, and still gives you space to find your own way.”

Dinara was drawn to the balance of structure and freedom. She found the training well-paced and easy to integrate into her daily life - never too much, never too little.

“I was never bored or tired during the online sessions. And the final retreat week in Italy was just amazing.”

What really stood out for her was how the training honoured the heritage and deeper meaning of yoga - offering a profound philosophical foundation while still encouraging personal exploration.

What We’ve Learned From Our Students

Each story is different - and yet, there’s a golden thread running through them all.

We’ve learned that yoga teacher training isn’t just about becoming a teacher. It’s about coming home to yourself. It’s about remembering what matters, rediscovering your voice, and finding the courage to share from a place of truth.

We’ve seen how powerful it can be when people feel safe, supported, and free to learn in their own rhythm - without pressure, competition, or comparison. We’ve seen confidence grow, friendships form, and hearts open.

Our students have taught us that yoga is not a destination - it’s a lifelong path of curiosity, humility, and joy. And that the journey is even more meaningful when we walk it together.

Whether you join this training to teach, to deepen your practice, or simply to reconnect with yourself - it’s your path. And we’re honoured to walk alongside you.

If these stories resonate with you or if something in you is feeling gently pulled in this direction, we’d love to connect.

Our next 200-hour Hybrid Hatha & Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training begins in December 2025. It blends live, interactive online learning with one magical in-person retreat week close to Rome in Italy.

No pressure, just a friendly, honest chat to see if it’s the right fit for you. We hope to hear from you soon!
