  • “I have taken many yoga trainings over the years and even led a 25-hour kids yoga teacher training module. This training topped them all in terms of the amount of information provided. I learned how to create clear, engaging, age-appropriate lesson plans, I better understand the unique developmental stages of K-12th graders, my classroom management has also improved."

    —Tanya Farmer, Educator, Success Academy

  • "The information and the experience of the BOL program has enhanced my whole being as a teacher and a yogi. Learning about neurodiversity and trauma-informed yoga practices, the readings required, the conversations, lectures and in-person Zoom experience all contributed to the impact on my personal and professional life."
