Teacher Trainee Comments:

"I attended yoga classes everyday with Sasha for about a year, and when I walked out of the class it was like I was a new person. So in February 2007 I decided to take the teacher training course so I could share the feelings and happiness that yoga gives me with others. The teacher training course was much more then just learning poses and theory, it was a life changing experience for me. It gave me a sense of who I am, to except and be happy with myself. When I get on my mat I know that time is for me and only me, and my mind becomes completely still, getting rid of all those thoughts I have of myself. My journey gave me so much confidence and happiness in ways words cannot explain. Not only did it change the person I am today but I also made life long friends along the way. Taking the teacher training gave me self-acceptance and most importantly discipline, now living 20 miles from the nearest town and just having a baby I am able to take my training and practice on my own each and everyday. Thank-you to Sasha." - Lexie

"Going into teacher training I expected to come out with a stronger physical practice along with the confidence and knowledge to pass on the Ashtanga vinyasa practice to others. My actual experience, however, was so much more than this. The greatest improvement in my practice was in my breath, gaze, bandhas, and overall focus. I believe the most important experience I received from the teacher training was allowing my mind to open to other beliefs, spiritualities, principles, cultures, and types of knowledge. I opened my mind and heart to learn from the experience of others and ideas I had never once considered. I also learned a great deal of information about myself, why I am the way I am, my beliefs and my goals in life. I learned how to trust myself, be confident in myself and be truthful about whom I am. Teacher training was only the first step to my path of self discovery and I can’t wait for the upcoming experiences I will encounter because of it. " - Marlee Moen

"When I decided to do the teacher training with Sasha, I expected to learn more about yoga and about my physical practice; I had no idea it would have such an impact on my life. I discovered I was learning a lot about myself as teacher training went on and my eyes began to open up to the non-physical aspect of yoga. The teacher training course pushed me to my limits both physically and mentally, and made me into a stronger person. I feel like I grew up a lot in that month, and came into my own skin in a way I never have before. The course made me aware of a lot of things about myself, some good and some bad, both on and off my mat. I learned to listen to my body, and listen to myself before others which are things I have never done before. The teacher training course taught me the amazing history of yoga, the way the body works, and many other things. Most importantly, it taught me about the person I am and the person I am going to be one day. The course taught me how to be a strong and spiritual person and it is an experience I wouldn't trade for the world. " - Erin Wagner
