Student Reviews
Triad Yoga’s 300 Hour Teacher Training Program was an outstanding. I have studied with various teachers and participated in many trainings across the United States in the past ten years, and this was one of the best! Terry and Suzanne directed a program that was well balanced in all aspects of yoga. Their plethora of experience and knowledge was beyond my expectations. The program opened many doors of interest, education and advancement in my continued pursuit of yoga.
