Client Testimonials

  • ~ Leslie Merritt

    I left every training weekend excited about reading and writing the assignments"

    "Evelyn and Erin have stepped up into higher leadership roles in this school since I first began, and they are doing an AMAZING job of carrying on the original teachings of this beautiful school - asana, meditation, pranayama, history, philosophy, anatomy, and beyond. Tom improved the way I teach asana tremendously, including but far beyond things like giving efficient verbal cues and adjustments. Tom uniquely excels at teaching yoga teachers by instilling in us love, care, and endless compassion for our students. Scott's GIANT passion for Vedic philosophy is so contagious I left every training weekend excited about reading and writing the assignments and learned a tremendous amount from him. On top of this amazing group of NS Yoga trainers, they brought in outside specialists on multiple occasions (ex a prenatal expert, a physical therapist, a Vedic astrologer, a chair yoga expert) to further our knowledge. Great school - I'm really looking forward to seeing the amazing things Evelyn does with this location."

    Everything being taught was very detailed and thorough. I enjoyed learning about meditation and the philosophical teachings. The way we learned how to use props and counter poses so that everyone can still benefit from the postures was spot on! I would definitely recommend this school to anyone looking to become a teacher or to just deepen their personal practice!
