    I loved this training! My cohort, the content, the trainer. I really appreciate having a better understanding of yoga, but also about how the body works, how to practice safely, and what a more trauma informed/accessible practice looks like.

    Educator was very knowledgeable, stayed on schedule throughout the whole training and was supportive and available when needed. I completed the YTT feeling confident in my ability to teach and with an even deeper love for yoga and its meaning!

    The journey of becoming a certified yoga teacher was truly transformative, and it wouldn't have been possible without the exceptional guidance and support provided by the incredible teacher Kristen Kulak. She created a welcoming and nurturing environment that made it feel like home. The curriculum was comprehensive and well-structured. The sense of community and support within the classmates was remarkable. I made strong friendships with my fellow trainees, and we all cheered each other on throughout the challenging moments of the training. I can wholeheartedly recommend Higher Love Academy to anyone looking to embark on their yoga teacher training journey. It's a place where you'll not only gain the knowledge and skills to become a certified yoga teacher but also undergo a beautiful personal transformation.

    The school was great. I loved the price and how intimate the classes were. Also really loved how we were taught about not being judgmental and being kind is so important.

    I really enjoyed my time with Higher Love Yoga Academy. I learned so much not only about the practice of yoga, but myself as well. I also gained some wonderful friendships. The training itself was implemented at a great pace, and everything was very thorough. My teacher was always available for questions and guidance if needed. I would highly recommend this school!
