YOGA SCHOOL REVIEW
“I enrolled with the Embody School of Yoga because teaching was something that was truly calling to me. I had fallen in love with the Embody community and the friendships I was building. I wasn’t just getting a workout — I was gaining a deeper understanding of myself and discovering just how much I was capable of. So when the opportunity came to deepen my learning through teacher training, I jumped at it.
What I didn’t expect was how much I would truly gain from the experience. Not only did the program help me become a stronger yoga student, but it also shaped me into a more confident and capable teacher. The relationships I built during training were such an unexpected gift. I formed deep friendships that I still nurture and cherish today.
Throughout the training, I learned to push myself in new ways, step outside of my comfort zone, and trust my voice. I went from spending hours writing out every detail of my flows to confidently adapting in the moment and creating sequences with ease. That growth alone was invaluable.
Vanessa created a safe and supportive space where vulnerability was welcomed and philosophical conversations flowed just as freely as the asana practice. She brings immense experience and heartfelt passion into every room she teaches in. Having her walk alongside you as you grow and deepen your practice is truly a gift. She has a rare ability to recognize exactly where you need encouragement or refinement and delivers feedback with patience and gentleness.
I left every training weekend feeling energized, inspired, and excited to continue deepening my own practice before the next session.
You don’t need to enter this teacher training with the sole intention of becoming a yoga instructor. Maybe you simply want to deepen your personal practice or build meaningful connections. Whatever your reason for considering this course, just do it. It may give you more than you ever expected.” - Nicole, YTT 2025
