Testimonials

This program was excellent training. As an older yogi, the pace was a bit demanding at times for me, but it was manageable. Clarissa adds some beautiful ceremonies throughout the program that make it special. The reading material, assignments, and practices helped me have a thorough understanding of what it takes to become a Yoga teacher. Clarissa is very supportive and guided me with her loving knowledge as an experienced teacher. I look forward to attending future events with Clarissa.

Such a magical experience. Not only did I gain a better understanding of yoga, anatomy, and the subtle body, but I gained a better understanding of self! I peeled back the layers of self and was catapulted out of my comfort zone, I felt completely safe in doing so because I had an abundance of support from Clarissa & my peers. I felt safe, supported, & truly connected to everyone there. It was definitely a healing experience for me as well as learning so much. Clarissa is full of knowledge, support, and is great at keeping you on task. Very FOCUSED! Experience of a lifetime!
