What Level 1 Teachers Are Saying

Real Experiences from Your Peers:

"It Was One of My Dreams"

"Assisting the facilitators during the training was so special because it was one of my dreams to help them and see the trainings from another perspective - not as a student, but as a teacher and as a member of the RA family. Helping with this training really helped me grow as a yoga teacher and build my confidence."

— Alexandra, Level 1 Teacher (France)

“"An Extremely Enriching Experience"

"Assisting during the teacher training was an extremely enriching experience. I have grown a lot during the past three weeks and I can recommend it to every yoga teacher out there. The main lesson I take away is to never stop learning and to keep walking step by step your own path."

— Alina, Level 1 Teacher (Germany)

"Eye-Opening and Worthwhile"

"It was so nice assisting the main facilitator. Getting the opportunity to shadow her and see behind the scenes of what it's like to guide and lead a training was very eye-opening and a worthwhile experience. This training has given me the feeling that I can go out and facilitate my own retreats and workshops."

— Charlotte, Level 1 Teacher (England)
