Here's what some of our recent trainees have to say...
"At Yoga Education Institute I not only became a certified yoga instructor, my entire yoga practice was transformed. Nancy Wile is a detailed, patient and tender teacher, who helped bring out each of our voices, our individual personalities and our essence. I was able to move from being very shy to feeling confident in myself and my ability to teach yoga. With the warm and practical environment she creates, I was able to safely discover my own niche as a teacher. Her format of presenting the anatomy and physiology of yoga is accessible and easy to learn. I could not imagine having a more productive and precise teacher."--Emma Gonzalez, RYT
Dear Nancy;
I came into your teacher training nervous and insecure about being able to become the kind of instructor that my future students could look up to for guidance. I left filled with confidence, knowledge, excitement and most important of all, ready to teach. You are a kind, patient, loving teacher. Your guidance and encouragement gave me the confidence that I needed it. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I look forward to any of your future trainings.
As a family therapist, I enrolled in Yoga Education Institute's training program to broaden my understanding of yoga to incorporate into my work with clients that suffer from anxiety disorders. Through this journey, I found that my own yoga practice deepened to a point that I am truly living my yoga on a daily basis. In addition to learning more about technique, breath work and the principles that are the foundation of yoga, Nancy Wile's training gave me the practical information that made it easy to incorporate yoga into my practice and my life. Nancy has a beautiful teaching style infused with humor that made the class so enjoyable. I highly recommend this teacher training to anyone who is looking to take the next step in their yoga practice.
Namaste -- Elicia Lowitz, LMHC
As I researched different teacher training programs for the past year or so, I ran across Nancy's certification program. I felt deep in my heart this was the ONE! Her vast knowledge and beautiful self made this certification a wonderful and unforgettable experience. What a blessing!! We learned every detail in hatha yoga, it exceeded my expectations. I love the fact that we had several books with pictures and great descriptions from poses, to meditation, and Sanskrit among many other themes. My classmates and Nancy bonded in a magnificent way and for all this I am grateful and know my yoga practice and teaching will help others learn what yoga really is.
Namaste -- Angela Stenzel
I would absolutely recommend this yoga teacher training course developed by Dr. Nancy Wile. It was enlightening from both a professional and personal standpoint. As a former director of teacher training at the University of North Florida, I was impressed with Nancy's ability to make the material relevant to each student. There were so many strengths to this program. It was very thorough, well planned, and concise. Dr. Wile's materials are extremely helpful and can be used in many ways long after you complete the program.
