ACCREDITED AND CERTIFIED
WHAT OUR GRADUATES ARE SAYING
It is a training where the acquisition of knowledge about the discipline is done in a practical
way, in such a way that I have felt that the training was a natural process. They have
awakened my curiosity about meditation practice, and the effects achieved during this
process. It is a very varied and complete course. Totally recommended.

"Hot Yoga Academy offers a vibrant, positively supported, energetic, well rounded
teacher training. Much like Vinyasa flow, the days just flowed into each other.
Throughout the course you learn such a variety of yoga from yin to acro and cover a lot
of philosophy (safe to say I am now an Ayurveda convert). Every day the teachers
support and nourish you with knowledge - it was amazing to see the team grow from
little seedlings to big strong oaks by the end of the course. One of the best things
about this course is that both Heather and Lezanne give you the creativity to make
your own teaching style work for you and really push you to practice teaching before
you leave. I am 100% leaving with excitement to teach and not the fear to teach. I can't
thank Hot Yoga Academy enough!"

"As a yoga practitioner for a number of years, I became curious to deepen my foundation of
yoga without any expectation of teaching afterward. I researched and found Hot Yoga
Academy which offered a summer month-long intensive course, which was exactly what I
was looking for, away from my native city life in NYC and as a further plus, near a beach.
There's a lot I can share about the experience but to summarize, it was a personally
enriching, life-changing experience. Having completed the training, I feel as if a new
portal has opened in my life with endless possibilities. I fell in love with yoga even more so
than prior to Hot Yoga Academy 's teacher training. After the program, I felt excited, and
grounded, in a way that I hadn't before or ever. Because of this, I feel very thankful for the
knowledge, the guidance, and the opportunity that came from the overall training. Thank
you Heather, Lezanne and my yoga sisters for an experience of a lifetime. It is with
gratitude, love and expansiveness that I reflect on what this past summer meant for me"

The teacher training at Hot Yoga Academy really left me with the confidence of actually
teaching Yoga myself to others. They really prepare you well and give all the essential tools you
need for your practice, weather it is teaching Yoga to others or deepen your own practice. I did
a 200 hr Yoga teacher training in Kerala, South India, 2 years ago and although it was an
amazing personal experience, it didn't leave me with the sensation of actually being prepared
to be teaching myself: the yoga-practice (Hatha Yoga) was very repetitive and didn't leave
much room for experimenting other asana-sequences whereas at Hot Yoga Academy it was
very diverse , not only did we constantly practice and learn new poses, correct alignment and
adjusting but we're also introduced to new styles and techniques through other teachers.
Also the philosophy-part was taught to us in a way that not only made it easier to understand
but also explained how to apply it in your yoga-practice as a teacher, student and in your daily
'modern' life in general. Even things like Yoga-Business and how to run a studio were spoken.
Apart from the amazing 'content' of the training itself, the people were incredible, not only the
teachers but also the other participants. Made friends for life during these intense but
rewarding 4 weeks.

I have learnt far more than just anatomy, philosophy and teaching principles during the last four weeks at Hot Yoga Academy TTC. I never expected to walk away from this experience having discovered so much about myself. I feel extremely lucky to have encountered such inspiring individuals, each have left a special mark on my life. I understand now that I will forever be a student, there is so much to learn everyday from my own practice, and endless to learn from everyone around me, that is essentially the foundation of a good teacher. Thank you Hot Yoga Academy for helping me realize that it's all about the journey! And my journey the last four weeks... Unforgettable!

"I read about it before starting and it was true: it's a life changing experience! This
training made me think from a different perspective, allowing myself to know more
deeply my body and mind. I have learned to be grateful and accept myself
completely. I LOVED the "balance" of teachings between Heather and Lezanne "way of
being" you perfectly balance each other!!! I will be always thankful to the teachers, for
sharing their energy and knowledge, to my colleagues, for being soooo lovely and
perfect, and to myself, for doing this! THANK YOU!!!!

"This training helped me discover the philosophy of yoga. Thanks to the amazing
teachers I developed my mind and body on this beautiful journey of personal growth
and letting go. Lezanne inspires all of us to dig deeper into the yogic way of life to
reach happiness."

"Training with a small group was very hands on. Teachers were very knowledgeable
and covered a wide variety of subjects. Ample time for practice teaching. Would
highly recommend this training."

"Heather and Lezanne make a great team, it was fun to work with both of them
throughout the month-long training. The best part for me was the amount of time
focused on learning to teach as well as practicing teaching. This allowed us to build
our confidence so that when we leave we can not only feel ready to teach a class, but
also create various sequences with different needs in mind!"
