"Yoga Teacher Training impacted my life by helping me become more in tune with my mind, senses and body. Practicing yoga has created a balance in my life and made more aware of my attitude and how I have the ability to shift my reactions to situations that occur in life.

As a teacher, Naomi Gold will integrate your experience within a community of people to break down yoga philosophy physical anatomy anatomy, postural alignment of the body and lead you in developing a regular mindfulness practice over the course of several months...sharing your experience with your cohorts as you go through the course modules. This was truly an amazing experience; I am so happy I had this opportunity to affect change and stimulate people lives.

YTT training was like a family affair, different people from different walks in life coming together with a common goal, what ever that goal was for each individual. We showed support, we heard each other, we cried together, we embraced each other when needed. And some times we gave space. "

"In a time where everything feels like it's in limbo and up in the air, YTT helped me to regain confidence in myself, feel more grounded in my everyday life, my spiritual practice and yoga journey. Learning and developing different breath practices and meditations has helped me to find a peace and grace that I had lost over the last few years. The online training was extremely beneficial as it allowed me to study at my own pace and develop a routine that worked with my hectic schedule. The opportunity to connect with so many wonderful, curious yogis has widened my circle and given me dear friends who will be a lifelong support system that I never imagined having. I would highly recommend this Teach Training course to anyone who is seeking to dive deeper into their yoga practice, their physical bodies and truly into themselves."

"This training has impacted my life greatly, mostly it has helped me feel way more at ease with my emotions and how I perceive them. I feel I am able to let go more often of what archers me in negative thoughts. I feel so much more confident in how I choose to carry myself on and off the mat, physically and mentally. The knowledge I've gained about anatomy helps me understand every BODY is different, which allows me to feel more comfortable helping others connect to their own bodies moving forward. If you are considering doing Naomi's 200 YTT, I highly encourage you to do so!!"
