Rachel Aseltine E-RYT® 200 · Jan 09, 2026

Bloom Yoga Studio provided an excellent foundation for teaching safe, accessible, alignment-focused yoga. I have been teaching for a few years now and have even hired instructors for the studio I manage that have also completed their 200-Hr YTT at Bloom Yoga Studio. I would highly recommend their program to anyone who wants to deepen their practice and learn about yoga's roots, anatomy, and so much more!
