What our graduates are saying...
“I would wholeheartedly recommend yoga teacher training to everyone. The teachers were the best I’ve ever had and have made a significant impact on my journey with their guidance and expertise. I learned so much from them, and I’m so grateful. Now, as a yoga teacher myself, I look forward to sharing my knowledge and guiding others on their yoga journey. Teaching yoga has become a deeply fulfilling part of my life, allowing me to continue growing and learning every day, and I’m so grateful I made the decision to train at Day By Day.”
-IEI 2023 Graduate
“The 200 hr YTT at Day by Day was nothing short of life-changing. I had known for a while I’d like to teach yoga because it has made such a huge impact on my life thus far but I never could have guessed what this training would bring me. It not only deepened my knowledge of asana but of yoga as a way of life and even of myself. Our teachers each brought with them their unique backgrounds and expertise that really complemented each other so well. While in the training many friendships were forged with my fellow classmates as we supported each other on our journey. The depth this training offers into trauma informed teaching is amazing and has been irreplaceable as I move forward as a teacher. If you’re contemplating a 200 hr YTT look no farther! You’ll find yourself and so much more here.”
-Anna
This YTT was the greatest gift I could have given to myself. I can tell how much I have grown because of it. I am now even more aware of myself and my surroundings than I was before. At the beginning of the training I was not sure if I wanted to teach, but as we started going deeper into the training it became very clear to me that bringing yoga to my community by teaching it, is what I wanted to do. Even if you are not sure if you want to teach or not, this YTT is the best gift you can give to yourself.
