What Our 200 Hour Online Graduates Say
If you’re looking for a program that meets you with kindness, depth, and real-world wisdom—and empowers you to step forward before you feel “perfect” this is it. Through the kindness and depth of Soma’s approach, I learned to trust myself, move forward with imperfect action, and understand yoga as a living practice far beyond the poses. This training didn’t just prepare me to teach yoga; it reshaped how I relate to my body, my practice, and my life.
-Sai Nadimpalli
This 200 hour Online training met me during a challenging time in my life and supported me in ways I didn’t expect. Through meditation, asana, and chakra work, I learned to move through my emotions with greater awareness and care. I now feel more grounded, connected to my intuition, and able to show up with greater authenticity, patience, and trust — both in my life and in how I guide others.
- Dominence Clifton
“I came in with little confidence that I could teach yoga in the body I inhabit, but through Soma’s compassionate, alignment-based approach, I learned that yoga truly is for everyone. The integration of philosophy, meditation, pranayama, and restorative practices expanded my understanding of yoga far beyond asana. I now feel grounded, confident, and prepared to offer classes that are welcoming, inclusive, and deeply meaningful.”
