The School of Yoga

“Going through the School of Yoga was well worth the effort, sweat and time, since all that was necessary to birth someone new; someone with more confidence not just to teach, but to navigate through life; and, most importantly, someone with the discipline, insight and self-love to integrate all those lessons learned into daily life. All I needed was 300 hours with Joan Hyman.”

“Joan is one of my most inspirational mentors. She was so supportive of all her mentees in my 300 hr group and has a very poignant way of making Yoga accessible and applicable to each individual student’s life. Her own passion and conviction for the practice of Yoga and its effectiveness is palpable: Joan is always inspiring. I am so grateful to have her as a teacher and a cornerstone for my evolution in my Yoga practice and as a student and as a teacher.”

“Having Joan Hyman as my yoga teacher has changed my life! Joan's teachings transform not only your physical body but your mind and spirit. She challenges me when I need it and encourages me to soften when necessary. She's a teacher that makes you a better person! The 150 HR TT in Goa was an unforgettable experience. I'm honored to be her student. ”

“My 300 hour teacher training with Joan Hyman produced a blue print of how I approach my yoga practice as well as creating intelligent sequences when I teach. Her yoga lingo, encouragement of self practice as well as a profound interest in providing information to feel-for-yourself and articulate-to-your-students mindset generated a deep internal ability to feel an external form for me. Training was not just a theory: you see and hear and feel that she is doing it, hence you shall.”

“It was a wonderful experience and the training was well organized. Joan refreshed our old learnings and added new insights as she taught us how to deepen our knowledge in yoga and move towards more advanced postures. Joan’s teachings are clear and concise and what took her years to study, she simplified for us to learn in a short period of time. After completing this course, I feel confident to teach classes to a broad range of students, how to provide modifications and adjust different people in different postures. I have a better understanding of the business side of yoga and how to navigate the future as yoga expands into the mainstream. I recommend this course to anyone looking to learn more about yoga and especially for teachers who want to teach.”

“Joan Hyman is a magnificent teacher. A teacher’s teacher. She walks her talk and lives as she leads. She’s done the real work long enough to offer a potent and genuine transmission of deep practice. As a mentor, she helped fortify my commitment, not just to focused and aligned asana but also to daily meditation. She commands a high-level of concentrated attention -in a strong yet kind, disciplined yet generous way- that delivers a transformative effect. Attuned to both the sacred and the secular, Joan brings the best qualities to the practice and to her students. It has been a tremendous gift to learn and grow from Joan’s teachings. Enjoy this opportunity to study with one of the best!”
