“My journey at Yoga Passage has been one of true alignment. You know that you’re in the right place when things flow easily. From my first awkward karma class to today, managing & teaching at the studio, I am so grateful to this space & for this this training. The Yoga Passage teacher training has allowed me to connect with the most inspiring people, redesign my entire life, and even ‘work’ in different countries - teaching in beautiful destinations.

The call to teach came all at once – it was a powerful call to my creativity & love for movement. Taking the training at Yoga Passage was a no brainer. The space was my home away from home, the community was all I had ever wanted, and beyond their years of experience and impressive list of qualifications, the faculty family is outstanding. Tracy will inspire your journey as a yogi [plus his dry humor and quick wit is on point] Carols uplifting personality and enthusiasm for the yogic lifestyle keeps you hooked, and all I can say about Tanis is that she will Blow. Your. Mind. Yoga Passage is so lucky to have these masters [though they would never call themselves that, humble as they are] leading the new wave of teachers in this community.”

“In September 2014, I embarked on my journey of the 200 hour teacher training program offered at Yoga Passage. The training itself was nothing short of absolute perfection. Not only did the training provide me with a solid basis that enabled me to begin teaching yoga right away but it helped create lifelong friendships. The facilitators, including Tanis, Tracy and Carol shared a wealth of knowledge in a sacred environment of which I continue to share and learn from day after day. I currently teach at various studios in Calgary and I’m grateful that I was able to take such a strong program that set me up for success”

“I consider myself so fortunate to have crossed paths with Yoga Passage and their teachers, for without them I would not have enrolled in their Yoga Teacher 200hr Course and be who I am today. Beginning the lessons in September 2014 I was searching; at that moment I thought I was just searching to learn what was needed to become a great yoga teacher, but as time went on I learned that I was actually searching for my true self. And by graduation in March of 2015, I had not only found myself, but I had found a happier, more compassionate, confident and forgiving version of my self. I also found more than 25 incredible friendships that I know will last a lifetime. During teacher training I noticed each student was on their own unique and exciting journey, but we all connected as one happy family for 7 months sharing our struggles and accomplishments and ultimately each becoming a better person through it. Everyone’s experience was completely different, but I can tell you mine was life-changing and wonderful. I progressed my physical practice, I took great leaps with my meditational practice, and I added immense amounts of knowledge from the entire body’s anatomy to ancient Yogic history. Through many opportunities to practice teaching and hands on adjusting, I emerged from training ready to teach yoga and actually taught my first class on the evening I graduated Teacher Training! Since then I have been teaching many classes a week at studios, at first in Calgary and then in Melbourne, Australia when I moved there for 4 months. This program was exactly the one that fit for me, allowing me to practice lessons, ask questions and study between weekends of learning. Not all programs make you feel ready to teach as soon as you graduate but some friends in this program who did not plan to teach at all ended up teaching some classes when they were done, we just felt so supported and prepared! I know my journey of learning has only just begun but I am grateful it started at Yoga Passage. I am thankful for everyone’s love, inspiration and commitment to learning and am looking forward to Advanced Teacher Training in my future. Namaste my friends.”

“I went into yoga teacher training no knowing what to expect. I knew i wanted to axpand upon my asana practice, and that I did, but what i received from the training went so far beyond that. The faculty was incredible, extremely knowledgeable and so supportive. The people were amazing - I’ve made life long friends. The information was so comprehensive, and has helped me become the confident teacher I am today. Above all, the life lessons I’ve learned have fostered exponential personal growth. I would always recommend this training to anyone hoping to learn, grow, and delve deep into the world of yoga!”

Ever humble, doctor Carol takes her own medicine with the class as she offers up the class - clear instructions and a smiling face impossible to stay mad at no matter how long she offers plank pose.”
