Yovana Yoga In Downtown Calhoun, GA! Your 1st month of unlimited classes is only $50
We focus on small group 200 hour trainings
We limit enrollment to 8 so that everyone can get as much individual attention as they need.
The result of our small group approach is that our teachers are generally more prepared to teach than graduates from other yoga trainings. Yovana Trained teachers are often mistaken for much more experienced teachers than they are.
When we set out on this journey of training future teachers it was never our intent to train the most teachers. It was our intent to train the best ones.
Kim Holland Recommends Yovana Yoga Teacher Training!
Yoga teacher training at Yovana Yoga turned out to be way more than teacher training! I had major anxiety. The teacher training taught me how to embrace and love myself. I learned how to control anxiety instead of allowing anxiety to control me. I made amazing friends. I felt so loved & accepted just as I was. I gained so much self-confidence! After graduating, I took a workshop with one of most experienced yoga teachers of our time, Judith Hanson Lassiter (JHL). All the poses Judith was teaching & correcting in other students, I had already learned properly (no correction needed). I believe Judith was a little amazed as well! Yovana Yoga is on the cutting edge of new yoga techniques as well as the science behind them. Yovana Yoga Teacher Training has been the best experience, hands down! Best gift I could have ever given myself!
-Kim Holland RYT-200 & 2022 Graduate of
the Yovana Yoga 200-hr Teacher Training Program
I was at Judith’s workshop with Kim. I have completed more than a hundred training hours with Judith. I interwove all that I have learned from this yoga teacher of more than 50 years into our 200-hour training. The workshop Kim and I did with her gave me a big light bulb monument. Here we were in a room of very experienced teachers and Judith was blowing all their minds teaching poses differently like the importance of never tucking your tailbone in Tadasana. My light bulb moment was that all the Yovana Yoga 200-hour graduates already knew all this. They were already teaching this. Even more amazing, Kim asked why would anyone ever tuck their tailbone in Tadasana? She had never learned that, yet most yoga teachers are still taught that today. I will continue to educate myself so that my trainees get the best training available.
