Testimonials
Teacher training at Midtown Yoga was one of the best choices I could have ever made for myself. The program is comprehensive, with deep dives not only into the physical aspects of yoga, but also the mental and emotional ones. The instructors and other students in the program were dedicated and created a safe space for learning. Even if you do not want to be a teacher yourself, this is a great program to deepen your yogic practice.

“Teacher training at Midtown Yoga was one of the best choices I could have ever made for myself.”
Midtown Yoga teacher training was one of the most transformative eight week periods of my life. I not only grew stronger physically in my practice, but I deepened my self-awareness and feel more grounded and connected in everything that I do.
The intensive eight-week program allowed me to learn from some of the most passionate, influential and engaging experts in Raleigh's yoga community.
I ended the training feeling confident and empowered in my abilities as a teacher, but I also left with so much more.
I not only witnessed changes in myself, but I watched my fellow trainees grow into the best versions of themselves. I consider them to not only be great friends, but sisters. The community at Midtown Yoga really feels like a second home and the yoga family I never knew I needed.

“I ended the training feeling confident and empowered in my abilities as a teacher, but I also left with so much more.”
I made the decision to take Midtown Yoga’s YTT program, and I am SO thankful I did! This training helped me grow in countless ways—deepening my mind-body connection, building confidence, finding community, and stepping into leadership. It strengthened my personal practice and gave me the tools and preparation to begin teaching right after graduation.
Now, I teach alongside my classmates, and we regularly take each other’s classes—a true testament to the supportive community Midtown fosters. The growth, connections, and joy I’ve experienced through this program are absolutely priceless. If you’re considering it, take the leap and invest in yourself—you won’t regret it!

MY Teacher Training is perfect for anyone who is trying to deepen their practice both on and off that mat, as well as share their practice with others through teaching. As a high schooler I was part of a dance studio that was my home away from home. Ever since then I have craved that bond with others...till now.
I found my family away from home and a group of women who love me for all that I am. I laughed, cried, and was vulnerable. At the end of this training, we all found our voice and our passion for yoga on and off the mat deepened.

Midtown Yoga’s teacher training was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. I came into the training hoping to deepen my practice, and I left with so much more: confidence, clarity, and an awesome community. The ten weeks were filled with growth, challenge, and connection. Emily and Jess were fantastic teachers, they created a space that allowed each of us to find our voice as teachers. This training helped me connect with myself in ways I didn’t expect, and I’m so grateful for the friendships, mentorship, and support during the training and that have continued beyond graduation!

“I came into the training hoping to deepen my practice, and I left with so much more.”
The Teacher Training lead team made students feel seen, challenged, and capable. They provided the structure to give the trainees the skills needed to teach and allowed enough freedom to explore creativity and find our own personalities as teachers. After 8 weeks, 200 hours--and 1,000 Chaturangas later--I went from originally signing up to deepen my yoga practice and explore to designing and teaching entire classes with a depth of knowledge on yoga anatomy. I also grew my practice beyond asana, learning about my chakra system, the history of yoga and the other limbs of yoga.
I am so grateful for the people and place that created a safe space to discover, grow and find my freedom and creativity again. To be able to return home to my body and reconnect with parts of myself I lost or hid away is a beautiful gift, and Midtown Yoga played a big role in helping make that a reality for me.
