”My YTT with Ignite Wellness Collective changed my life - not only to become a teacher, but to evolve as a student more than I imagined.
The teachers were each exceptional in their own ways but came together to convey a cohesive, safe way of teaching yoga and connecting with students. We were able to touch on all aspects of yoga and teaching, including different styles, philosophy, asanas, class set up, but most importantly - how to conduct a safe class. I left with knowledge of the anatomical alignment and cueing that benefited my own practice and that of every student I teach. Even in times I am not teaching or not even moving my body with yoga poses, I feel enlightened and connected to the community and true meaning of yoga. If you want to be a yoga teacher, HIGHLY recommend. If you never want to teach, HIGHLY recommend. Thank you, Ignite!”

“The teachers at IGNITE were passionate about all aspects of yoga, not just the asanas (poses). They provided us with the tools to create our unique vinyasa classes, while honoring the reverence and integrity of yoga. I experienced a profound and deep connection to the practice of yoga which was only rivaled by the connection developed between the students.”
