Teacher Training Coming Spring 2025!

"Taking Gayatri Yoga Teacher Training was a life-changing process for me – full of personal growth.  Elise is compassionate, fun, knowledgeable, and is a respected teacher.  This is a course you should consider if you want to deeply dive into yoga – its history, its philosophy, practices and applications.  You will emerge better for having experienced the nurturing intensity of having taken this path of learning regardless if your goal is to teach or deepen your personal practice.  I am grateful for the opportunity to have experienced the class and bond with my fellow students.
