Testimonials;
“Lori provides a supportive environment for learning. Her teaching is formal and informal, with opportunity to ask questions and discover together. The biggest attraction to her teaching style for me, was about meeting the student (and yourself) where they (and you) are at that particular day. She teaches to be curious, explore, and have fun in the journey while meeting your edges and to “stretch” your possibilities without overextending. There is emphasis on anatomy, but also philosophy and pragmatic application. She encourages you to be you in your teaching, but also to follow tradition and structure, and she really stresses the importance of safety in poses through cuing and providing options for all levels of practice.” –
Myla Wollbaum, pharmacist and Integral Coach

“I love Loris teacher training course. It is very informative, educational and empowering. Loris many years of experience (and her own continuing education) shines through as well as her professionalism, warmth, charm, integrity and joy. She is the symbol of Yoga and her course teaches instructors about what Yoga is truly about. When you take this course, you and your future yoga students will benefit greatly from this experience. ” -Cheryl Lloyd

“Yoga Teacher Training Essentials with Lori Lee. Wow! What a great experience. Attending Lori’s studio and being a student of hers for many years, I was excited to do a teacher training program with Lori at the helm. This course has enriched my personal practice tremendously and broadened my knowledge base significantly. There is much to learn in becoming a teacher but Lori is such a warm, caring and knowledgeable guide that all components, from philosophy to anatomy and everything in between, are a joy to learn and the time flies! Another bonus is that the course is Yoga Alliance certified which provides invaluable international recognition for teaching worldwide. So glad I took this course!” -Mary Ann Grimsrud, Yoga Teacher

“As a relatively new yoga practitioner, I was quite nervous about the intensity of the 200 hour teacher training course and if I had enough experience to participate. Lori Lee has this wonderful ability to make everybody feel welcome in her studio; she is very patient and accommodating, even when I’ve had to take time away to tend to family matters. Lori Lee’s course is exactly what I hoped for, I’ve learned so much and been allowed to do so at my pace. Lori Lee’s professionalism, knowledge and years of experience make her an incredible teacher trainer. We are very fortunate to have her with us.” -Helen Outerbridge

“Lori’s Yoga Teacher Training program has been a wonderful adventure. I chose Lori’s program because I have always loved attending her classes, being drawn to her style, her gentle nature, her attention to detail and her ability to be authentic. Over the past year of this program, Lori has brought all of these incredible qualities into her training. She has a wealth of knowledge and expertise from years of experience and training, and yet is humble, able to remain open to new ideas and perspectives. She is a teacher and a student. I appreciate that she prioritizes the safety and comfort of her students, and that she practices and teaches with integrity. I found this course to be a great balance between theory and practice, and appreciate the way Lori has emphasized yoga as a lifestyle, rather than just a series of poses on the mat. I have grown so much personally and professionally by taking this course and highly recommend it to anyone looking to take YTT!” – Kellsey Calhoon, Psychologist

“I am writing to ignite interest and encourage acting on it! Lori Lee’s yoga teacher training was a dream come true for this self-proclaimed life learner. It is right to say that I feel more of the ancient and present day wisdom of yoga and its philosophy and practice integrated and useful to me after completing the 10-month course with Lori Lee and my fellow females. My strength and practice has grown. My confidence as a teacher and practitioner has grown. My community has grown. And most importantly for me, my belief in the embodied feminine as the way of living healthily and its influence on compassionate change was reinforced in this course. I went in wanting only to feed my desire to understand more and build community. I left wanting to teach yoga as a way of life. Thank-you Lori! I am forever grateful for this!”
