"This yoga training was in the "elite" / 5 star arena. The preparation it must have taken to make the curriculum as comprehensive as it was is amazing. They did a fantastic job introducing us to various kinds of yoga. I feel I got my money's worth and I am graduating confident that I will be able to teach a solid class." -Lezleigh Vincent |
"We are extremely fortunate to have Hassina conducting a YTT in this area. She is a Yoga Master who is kind, approachable, nurturing. willing to share her knowledge. She has put together an incredible instructor team (Beth Place, Melissa Verdicchio, Terhi Mengel) who guide you through each aspect of the teacher training. I am very happy with the training I received and comes highly recommended to any heart-centered student. Hassina’s YTT is truly one of the best. If you are looking for a great experience with a YTT , look no further, apply, and hope you are one of the lucky ones to be selected. It is a journey worth taking with Hassina."

"Having participated in other yoga training that did not meet my needs, I stepped into the YTT Journey training with a slight hesitation. Quickly, I saw there was no need to worry because the yoga training that I envisioned was right before me. Overall, I would say that the YTT Journey is exceptional! I had no idea how detailed, organized, and professional this program would be. I finished the program feeling wiser, stronger and eager to be grow my skills as an instructor. The teachers at YTT Journey are some of the most helpful and generous people that I’ve encountered to date. To call them qualified is a large understatement, as they each possess years of knowledge and freely teach from their hearts and souls. By the end of the YTT program, I felt an incredible connection with the rest of my peers. We laughed and cried together as well as watching each other learn and grow. There was a strong sense of trust and respect between everyone in our class. I have never felt more love and at peace within a large group of people. It was an experience that I am so grateful for and will cherish forever!"

"I absolutely LOVED my YTT. The teachers were AMAZING & ENCOURAGING and I learned a lot from my fellow students as well. It was life changing in the best way- making me hopeful for the future and fall even more in love with yoga. The course was laid out clearly, all necessary materials were provided and were thorough. I have been practicing yoga for some time and this course really helped me consolidate my knowledge and taught me much more as well. It helped me take what has been a very internal practice, and learn how to externalize it to help & share with others. This course/ YTT was beyond my expectation and gave me the confidence to go out and teach."

"I had wanted to become a yoga instructor for some time but was never drawn to any particular school. I eventually found a YTT program that was led by Hassina and knew instantly through talking with her and the other instructors on her teacher training program that I had finally found my match. The program was very well thought out and touched on all the important aspects of becoming a well rounded yoga instructor. Hassina is such a compassionate, caring person and made the YTT not only informative but lots of fun. There was a great emphasis on anatomy and physiology as well as the many styles of yoga, sequencing, and proper form and technique. Hassina and the other teachers (Beth Place, Terhi Mengel and Melissa Verdicchio) were always willing to go the extra mile to help us learn and understand the many parts of our yoga journey. The friendships I have made in the training are incredible & that is a huge extra gift I was not expecting! I would highly recommend taking your Yoga Teacher Trainingwith Hassina and her team at YTT Journey for anyone wanting an experience of a lifetime."

"This has truly been one of the best, most rewarding experiences of my life. I went into the YTT with the intention to deepen my practice and learn more about something I love, and in addition to it being everything I hoped for and more, I also emerged with the knowledge, confidence and support to teach. I can't say enough positive things about the YTT and the exceptional people involved. Not only was it fun, it was structured and organized all while being flexible and inspiring. Not an easy feat to achieve! I'm beyond blessed and thankful that this opportunity was given to me and for the people who made it possible." - Jen Bullard |
"This was an extremely well-rounded curriculum providing education about a broad variety of subjects regarding yoga, including hands-on experimentation with different styles of yoga to help us find our strength and passion. Most importantly, by the end, everyone was very well equipped to write a flowing, balanced yoga sequence, teach it to a multi-level class, and provide strong cueing and different types of assisting. I HIGHLY recommend this Yoga Teacher Training!" - Lisa Rider |
"Wow! What an experience. I am very grateful for this opportunity. To be surrounded by incredibly loving instructors with all the knowledge they shared was a wonderful experience. I had been interested in a Yoga Techer Training and did my own research about but when I learned of this fortuity, I knew it was meant to be and I couldn't let it pass. Not only did I learn how to teach yoga, with confidence, but I learned more about myself as well. I can't wait to share my love of yoga with the world!" - Milissa Tilley |
I waited a long time to go through YTT training, always unsure of what program would be best for me. I am glad I did and that I chose YTT Journey as my school. Instructors work with you to achieve your goals while honoring creativity and diversity. They give you the skills and the confidence to reach your students. From the practical to the more esoteric aspects, all are included and welcome. I learned a great deal about myself, my students and instructing. I cannot recommend highly enough!! - Beth Kuehnert |
I began my yoga journey in college in the 70's, studied Iyengar in the 1990's, I've taught Les Mills Bodyflow for 11 years, and I have always known there is always more to learn. This YTT Journey was beyond amazing- Hassina and her staff are SO very knowledgeable in all aspects, but, also caring, compassionate & OPEN to sharing their knowledge. As I continue on this journey, I look forward to sharing what I've learned to enhance my classes, and continue on this yoga journey as there is still more to learn ahead.🕉 - Pam Blum |
Extremely professional program staffed by knowledgeable and caring instructors. Excellent program with ample opportunities to practice teaching and write sequences for classes. Instructors have many years experience between them and it shows. More than that, they care about their students and want to spread the gift of practing yoga. Highly recommend this yoga school. Small classes with a lot of individual attention and tailoring to student's needs. Great experience. - Terri Levine |
It was the best decision I made in 2016 to finish this 200-hour yoga teacher training. I have been practicing yoga for ~7 years and I decided to take the plunge. If you are a practitioner looking to enhance your practice, this YTT is for you. The teachers, reference materials, class size, and flexibility is awesome. I work full time and had to reschedule a couple of modules and Hassina was quick to consider options. - Eli Villagomez |
First and foremost, YTT Journey is an outstanding yoga program. It is worth all of your time and financial investment! I researched many YTT programs prior to my decision and knew this was the one that met my needs. Hassina has developed a comprehensive YTT curriculum that includes excellent instructors, detailed and accurate information and plenty of teach-back practice in professional, nurturing environment. YTT Journey instructors combined have over 10,000 hours of teaching yoga and bring a variety of yoga knowledge and experience. All of the instructors are positive and encourage you to believe in yourself. I highly recommend YTT Journey. A big thank you to all of you who supported me through my yoga journey!
