Teacher Training

★★★★★

  • Melt's 200 hour teacher training was an incredible experience and one that I would recommend to anyone who is interested in deepening their practice, not just those who want to become teachers.  I had no intention of teaching and by the end, I was wholeheartedly committed to the idea of sharing my practice with others.  Throughout the training, we had the opportunity to learn from an array of teachers with different specialties.  The friendships and bonds created are ones that I cherish.

  • My 200 Hour RYT training at Melt was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Nicole and Stephanie created a loving, warm environment for my group to build upon our yoga practice. I could not have asked for more support from our trainers, and the relationships I built will last a lifetime. Our 8 weeks in training was filled with everything from the history of yoga to alignment cues. We learned different breathwork techniques, took a mediation workshop, and visited a monastery. Not only did I have the opportunity to learn about yoga, I was also able to look inward and learn about myself in the process. The time we spent learning about Patanjali's yoga sutras, the yamas, and the niyamas allowed us all to self-reflect in a way that I had never experienced. I do not have the words to express my gratitude for my time spent at Melt, and could not recommend it enough to anyone looking to deepen their yoga practice or pursue a career in teaching. Thank you, Melt for a life changing experience.

  • My friend told me I should do the 200 hr RYT Training at Melt and that it would be worth it. She was right. It was worth it and so much more. It went beyond learning the technical things like class formatting and the poses of yoga. The teacher training at Melt gave me a better sense of myself, a deeper appreciation for everything including the air I breathe and most of all it gave me a sisterhood. There was a special, if not magical connection with our group. We were guided by Stephanie Haden and Nicole Hill, both are strong and knowledgeable teachers. They supported us and taught us how to use the information we learned in the training. This experience brought me closer to my most authentic self and I am forever grateful.
