My training with Kootenay Yoga School was a great experience! Not only did I meet some amazing ladies, but the staff was so kind! The food was another plus and kept us well-nourished for our two-week training - thank you Addy and Lisa! Our teacher, EJ, was so energetic and had a contagious cheerfulness! It made it easier to take in all the knowledge. I can't wait to go back :)!

Couldn't have imagined a better experience! Kootenay Yoga School went way above my expectations. Not only did I learn so much about the history, beliefs, and poses behind yoga, but I also met amazing people, ate delicious food, and had a wonderful time in the desert. I can't recommend this program enough!

This ytt exceeded ALL EXPECTATIONS! I had the most incredible 2 weeks and I would go back and do it again over and over again! Addy was the absolute best host and a world class vegetarian chef. EJ was the perfect mentor and teacher. I shared the time with 8 of the best women I’ve ever met! If you are thinking about doing this training, this is your time!!! The desert life is typically not my cup of tea, but for some reason the vibe matched the scene so well it didn’t bother me. I am so grateful for the opportunity and I am confident that I am set up to be a great yoga instructor! Thank you KYS:)

This was undoubtedly one of the best experiences of my life. I really enjoyed the programme, I learnt a lot, the island is magical, the staff are extremely friendly and Sarah is lovely and supports you in everything you need. The food is delicious. I felt very welcome and I encourage everyone to try this experience.

I chose this retreat to celebrate my 50th birthday, exceeded all my expectation. A great place for anyone wanting to travel alone. From the moment I started the booking process to the end of the trip there was support every step of the way. Our instructor Sarah, her wisdom and knowledge were evident in every session with her compassionate heart. I learned so much from her guidance and felt truly inspired by her teachings. I also want to mention Kevin, who was always there to lend a helping hand whenever needing assistance. His presence added an extra layer of comfort and support being there by myself and not knowing anyone. The entire team behind this retreat was exceptional, and their dedication to creating a positive and memorable experience for all participants was evident in all the details. The beautiful peaceful setting to the well-organized schedule, everything was thoughtfully planned to ensure a memorable and transformative experience. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to nourish their mind, body and soul, all in a supportive and nurturing environment.
