What Our Students Are Saying…
"Words cannot describe how much the Yogaspirit teacher training meant to me. I couldn't ask for better training that thoroughly taught the asanas and dove deep into yoga philosophy. I could deepen my meditation and asana practices with what I learned each week."
- M. Scicchitanto
"I had no idea how powerful this training would be. I am so grateful to have been part of this tribe and community. Leeann and Cara were amazing and their wisdom, compassion, and light are such a gift!"
- S. Williams
"This course helped me bring attention to our relationships, which sometimes get lost in the daily shuffle of work and kids. My absolute favorite part was listening to Kim's led meditations. She expanded my mind and helped me connect more deeply to my heart."
- K.Krugger
"I loved Yogaspirit's 200hr Teacher Training! The course content was both deep and wide. Suzanne Silvermoon is an amazing teacher who brings the curriculum to life with her enthusiasm for every subject of yoga. Kim Valeri and her team are a pleasure to work with."

All of these amazing teachers have had a long-term association with Founder, Kim Valeri. Many of them began their journey as Yogaspirit in 1997 when Yogaspirit was first founded. This team has received multiple certifications from Kim Valeri including either Advanced Yoga, Yoga Therapy, or Ayurvedic Health Counseling. Kim’s daughter Gina joined the teaching faculty in 2022 after being part of the Yogaspirit community for decades. Together this team has walked the path of yoga together on and off the yoga mat for over twenty years. They are seasoned and knowledgeable under Kim’s mentorship to deliver their special teaching styles and unique approach to the program.
