Alberta Yoga College

I recently graduated the Alberta Yoga College's 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program. It was a positive experience for me, I entered the program with a limited knowledge in yoga. I found the program to be very well rounded. Offering a good balance of Asana training, Yoga philosophy, Anatomy and many other modules that gave me a great introduction into the world of yoga. The instructors are very experienced and offer a lot of knowledge in different areas as well as constructive feedback. My personal yoga practice improved immensely and I appreciated the coaching that was offered. The communication before the program began was helpful in preparing me and the director, Rob, was always very quick to respond to my inquiries. I had many questions before signing up and Rob took the time to talk to me and discuss the program before I committed. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is considering it, after 3 months of training I feel confident to move towards a career as a Yoga instructor as I was given the tools to succeed.

I recently graduated from the Alberta Yoga College's 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program and I could not be more satisfied or more grateful to the faculty.The knowledge of the staff, the very early introduction to practice teaching and the recognition of ancient wisdom with modern science made this an ideal program for me. I am confident to move forward in my new career as a yoga professional, and better yet, I feel supported and encouraged to do so!Alberta Yoga College did such a phenomenal job of creating a safe, supportive and inclusive environment. Students are encouraged to ask questions and to think outside the box which allowed for some great conversations, innovations and laughter!This program touched on the physical, spiritual and mental aspects of yoga, and the College really has collected some of the greatest instructors in the city to teach from their experience/expertise.If you are debating a 200 hour yoga program, to deepen your own practice, or for a possible career change, I encourage you to put AYC at the top of your list. There's an amazing community surrounding the college, and the support seems to be never-ending.Thank you AYC for the most amazing opportunity. I am forever grateful to be an alumni!PS - If you're just looking for public classes, and a space that will welcome you with open arms, come check out a class. We always have a blast and leave feeling strong and recharged!

I just completed the 200 hr teacher training program at AB College of Yoga. It was an amazing, professional, inspirational, extremely thorough program. The teachers really care about their students and the instruction is top notch. Thank you Stephanie, Rob, Bonnie, Sara, Victoria, Krista, Shanda and Curran for sharing your expertise and encouraging us to be the best yoga instructors we can be!!

My experience with the Alberta Yoga College has been wonderful. I would highly recommend this program for the 200 hr teacher trainee program as well as the studio to a yoga student of any experience level. I found the faculty to be knowledgeable, helpful, encouraging and supportive long after graduation day. The quality of instruction is excellent, the progression and live teaching experiences built into the program ensure that the trainee has a number of opportunities to practice teaching in front of a large group.

I had a wonderful experience at the Alberta Yoga College. Their 200 hour teacher training features excellent, knowledgeable faculty and ample opportunity to apprentice and practice teaching. I loved the flexible schedule that allows me to balance training with my busy life. I am now a working, certified yoga teacher, and I love it! Highly recommend.

This was such a great experience. The Alberta Yoga College has such a welcoming group of treachery and volunteers that you really feel as though you are part of a family.The training is thorough and prepares you to continue on with your yoga journey.I’m so grateful for the opportunity and I can’t wait to come back to participate in classes and build on my knowledge.

I first joined the Alberta Yoga College’s 200 Hour Teacher Training Program not because I wanted to teach, but because the pandemic had forced everything online and I wanted to become knowledgable enough to safely practice yoga at home. Even though I went in with no intentions of teaching, I left with all the skills, confidence, and support that I needed to change my mind.Stephanie is a former student, a talented teacher, and a caring new owner who went above and beyond for all of us to make our time at the AYC as fulfilling as possible. I also feel very lucky to have been in the program at the same time as all of the other incredible students and teachers. Everyone brought the benefit of their own experience with them and they made the program all the richer for it.Due to some health challenges, I was a little worried about the longer class times (especially the Saturday classes) but the flexible hybrid format which offers a choice between in-person and online participation was an invaluable accommodation for me. Even though I was learning remotely, the sense of community was still strong.I can’t thank the AYC enough for their compassion and expertise. I wouldn’t trade my time with them for anything and I continue to enjoy their public classes and their convenient on-demand library!!

I have been attending classes at the Alberta Yoga College for the past year and a half and I am annoyed that I didn't start sooner! My Iyengar background makes me very particular about yoga, and I have been delighted with the quality of classes. I enjoy the variety offered and the experienced and knowledgable instructors.I have connected with other students and instructors alike. There is a great community feeling to the studio. Rob, the fearless director, maintains his enthusiasm, professionalism and humour without fail. I cannot say enough to recommend the Alberta Yoga College.

I had a lovely experience completing my yoga teacher training at the AYC and I would encourage anyone interested in pursuing this path to register here. The instructors are always eager to help, extremely generous with their time, and they each offer a unique teaching style to learn from. Rather than learning in the traditional classroom setting, all students are encouraged to speak up and discuss ideas together. There is a wonderful community atmosphere here and former students continue to play an active role in it. This is a community that fosters support. We lift each other up and celebrate our differences. Thank you to the faculty and to my amazing fellow students. I am so grateful for this experience and for becoming a part of this beautiful group. Namaste friends :)

Alberta Yoga College gives the BEST, well-rounded yoga experience. Whether it’s public yoga classes or the 200TT, Rob and the team are very knowledgeable and are truly invested in your experience and growth! They are engaging and truly can’t hide their yogi excitement!If you are considering the teacher training, all I can say is, don’t wait. The experience is like no other; one for which your mind and body will thank you.
