Testimonials:
Graduating from ATT was the most rewarding and heart-opening experience. When you have teachers as wise and knowledgeable as Swami Asokananda and Leticia Padmasri there is nothing else to wish for. They share a great source of education for Yoga teachers. The training has an absolutely satisfying curriculum and most importantly great support on the individual level. To me, this was a complete training, couldn’t be more grateful for such an opportunity.—Malati Kurashvili
The Advanced Teacher Training at Yogaville, with Swami Asokananda and Leticia Padmasri, enhanced my Yoga practice, my teaching, and my life in many ways. As a seeker, this training inspired and re-energized my practice. The instructors embody years of study and regular practice. They both live what they teach in an authentic, humble manner. They are gifted at sharing their wisdom and insights in concrete, practical ways. They made the subtle, deep, and profound aspects of an advanced practice accessible and attainable for us. The training is rigorous mentally and physically, but the reward is well worth the effort; the confidence and ability to offer the advanced Integral Yoga class, and a path toward continued personal growth. I’m so grateful for the experience.—Krishna Tim Howeth
