Success Stories

Yoga Teachers College

Follow along with the amazing stories from a number of our successful Yoga Trapeze teachers who came from various countries to become certified in Barcelona and how they now share their passion for yoga with the world.

“The Yoga Trapeze Teacher Training could not have been better. The teachers were great in both professional and personal levels. The facilities were fantastic and of course the group was also very good. I not only learned a lot during the training but also had a very good time.

I definitively recommend YOGABODY for those that are interested in knowing more about other yoga modalities.”

Nathalia Moraes (Luxemburg)

“Everything was explained step by step, nice and easy. There was plenty of time to learn as well, so I found it quite easy.”

Kimberly Tripp (Australia)

“I was a little bit frustrated with the system before because I did not understand the moves and I did not have the upper-body strength for some of the poses or the techniques, so after I came to the course I was taught a lot about the technique.

Barcelona is also the perfect place to be, the studios are gorgeous and clean, very professional. I loved the staff, they gave the group experience but also took the time to give you the individual experience you are looking for.”

Shannon Miller (Los Angeles, California)

“The Trapeze Course really set us up for not only teaching it but also how to use it yourself and loads of creative opportunities; to create your own sequences and flows.

For me was just a great community, there is a lot of people very who are very active in the yoga community. They have cool ideas, business ideas so it is really cool to hear what they are into and start a good discussion.”

Andy Seymour (Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam)

“It was very interactive, the teaching was direct and well thought out.”

Pam Ward (San Francisco, California)
