YOGA TEACHING, ELEVATED

“I feel so much more knowledgeable, confident and empowered as a teacher after embarking on this training!”

I found Hannah when I was just starting my yoga journey and felt an instant connection! Hannah's style of teaching is so creative and informative - it allowed me to appreciate all aspects of Yoga and strive to learn more. Hannah doesn't just focus on the asanas or postures itself but shares so much more including knowledge on anatomy and yoga philosophy. She has shown me how to be a better yogi on and off the mat and was the reason why I wanted to become a teacher! I feel so much more knowledgeable, confident and empowered as a teacher after embarking on this training! Thank you Hannah and Celest!!

“I'm so excited to take all of this knowledge back to my students!”

Before doing Celest's training I felt a bit stagnant in my teaching. The days we spent together was transformative. Her style of teaching was interactive, fun and I can't believe how much mind blowing information she got into our minds! I feel equipped with so many science based tools and have learnt such much about the brain and the body. I'm so excited to take all of this knowledge back to my students and feel totally revilatilised.

“I feel fully equipped in implementing anatomy into my teaching”

I used to try and learn something anatomy related by reading blogs, articles and books but often I couldn’t retain the information or understand it. I decided to do one of Celest’s trainings and immediately started to understand complex concepts. It helped me to feel fully equipped and this new learning easily became implemented in my teaching, which really helped my students understand their bodies and increase their knowledge and awareness.

“Hannah is brilliant, I trust her knowledge to no-end”

As a functional yoga and movement coach who has trained heavily in biomechanics and anatomy, I am very particular with which teachers I choose. Hannah is brilliant, I trust her knowledge no-end. She creates brilliant, fun, creative and thoughtful flows and has a wonderfully kind and gentle way of delivering powerful messages behind the class theme. I always enjoy Hannah's classes and always come away feeling fantastic

“Hannah & Cel are the golden jewels of yoga”

After 7 years of daily practice, I thought it was time to get to the next steps: deepen my practice, understand the foundations of yoga, discover the philosophy, get to grips with anatomy and develop the real confidence to teach, whilst formulating my style as a teacher. However, due to my busy life and constant travelling, I needed a flexible set-up. This course has been a total blessing, allowing me to go in and out depending on my availability, which means I can study at my pace, and always have access to the incredible content. 

Hannah & Cel are the golden jewels of yoga, and they are surrounded with an incredible team of educators, guest teachers and specialists within each area. So you really get the best of everything. On top of it, the community involved is very supportive and inspiring. I couldn't recommend ALBA school more! You are the best!

“Couldn't recommend enough!”

I am so pleased I signed up for the 200hrs course with Alba Yoga Academy. The in depth exploration of the anatomy, philosophy, teaching techniques and more that I can dive into at my own pace are wonderful. I have found myself wanting to study, learn more about the different teachers' expertise and just try things out around the house as well as on the mat (even on skis on holiday!) Couldn't recommend enough!

“This is precious.”

I recommend 100% this teacher training. There is so much high valuable information in it! In my opinion this training is one of the best you can have, whether you are already a yoga teacher or not, and it couldn’t be more complete. There’s a mind blowing anatomy part where you definitely understand more the body, biomechanics and how the brain leads all that. It really changes my perspective of yoga, how and why we are moving. The philosophy part is very accessible to understand and they help us finding a way to integrate it in our modern world. There’s a lot of guest teachers and coaches who also bring their incredible knowledge to the table. It may be an online training but they created a whole community where we can chat and practice with incredible people all around the world. We definitely don’t feel alone with our computers. Celest and Hannah form a wonderful team, you can feel their passion and dedication to make every single one of us empowered to be the teacher we want to become. They complete wonderfully each other. And last but not least, they grant us access for life to the content, so we can get back whenever we need. This is precious.

“I don't really want it to end to be honest!”

I have really enjoyed the course so far, its so so interesting.  This is my second 200-Hour YTT and this course is so much more than I was ever hoping for and is far more in depth that the first course I did. I am loving every minute and not only is it super interesting and mind blowing in many ways, Hannah and Celest are excellent teachers and make it really enjoyable to learn. 

I don't really want it to end to be honest! I would love to just keep learning more and more from Hannah and Celest every day! I feel like I will come away from the course with such valuable knowledge and be a far better Yoga teacher because of it. Its making me super excited about teaching and so much more confident in my abilities.  Thank you both

"I am slowly coming to the end of the course and watching live videos left, I watched the live class with Hannah from week 5 (with loving kindness meditation) this week."

I believe there are no coincidences -and taking into account the moment in my life I am right now, this is what I really needed.

The whole class, together with the meditation, was absolutely magical, after the class the tears welled up in my eyes with emotion (in a positive sense😀).

I didnt know whether I wanted to start teaching yoga after the course, but after the class I strongly felt that if at least one person ever feels something similar after my classes, it is worth trying.

Thank you both for all classes and videos. This journey with both of you (although not finished yet) was absolutely remarkable and extraordinary! Thank you so much for it, I feel so grateful for you!

“There are so many things I can praise about the training, but what stands out the most to me are the trainers' values.”

Celest & Hannah's Alba Yoga 200hr YTT is by far the most comprehensive, evolving and non-dogmatic YTT I have ever come across. It is fun; incredibly informative; the trainers are hands-on with multiple weekly contact hours together online; Hannah & Celest are both very sincere but also don't take themselves or their egos too seriously, which is refreshing in a yoga world where gurus are definitely a thing.

There are so many things I can praise about the training, but what stands out the most to me are the trainers' values. They love what they teach and are committed to sharing the best quality and best experts in the field; they empathise with and get all the difficulties we might face along this path; and they encourage us to always evolve our understanding and question what we are taught, for ourselves. Life, our depth of understanding, and science all evolve with time. An example of these values in actions is that Celest & Hannah update their manual and online learning videos on the portal whenever new research shows anything different to what they have already uploaded. This online portal is also an encyclopaedia of anatomy, philosophy, top quality creative classes, workshops etc that will be forever useful as a source of inspiration for my coming years of teaching.

“This course has helped rekindle my sense of awe for the human body...” 

Not only are Hannah & Celest breaking the mould by expanding the movement education through a broader & more scientific lens, they are also breaking the mold by encouraging each individual to teach from a place of authenticity and individuality. The Alba Yoga Academy is not another cookie cutter teacher training that you can get anywhere. It is the antithesis of it. 

This course has helped rekindle my sense of awe for the human body and also helped me feel confident in teaching this practice the way I feel compelled to teach. 

LINDA

“Celest and Hannah make sure that we’ll grow into confident teachers...” 

So much knowledge and love has been poured into this training. Celest and Hannah make sure that we’ll grow into confident teachers by sharing not only all of their knowledge and wisdom but also by bringing in specialised teachers in their respective fields like meditation, public speaking and yoga philosophy.

I would recommend it to everyone who is interested in finding their own style of teaching, cultivating their voice and growing into a confident teacher. 

SARAH

“I have no regrets” 

Hannah and Celeste are both very passionate, kind, generous, and have so many skills when it comes to teaching. All these qualities are also found in both the videos and manuals but also in the live classes. Every video is a goldmine of information, and learning has never been so fun and easy. Anatomy or philosophy classes, pose breakdowns, or business tips… every class is awesome, as are the guest teachers.

Furthermore, even if this training is online, we can connect so easily with the other students that you never feel alone. It took me two years to find an appropriate training, and I have no regrets.

“I feel I can empower my students even more with yoga and movement...” 

If I had to describe the training with Celest & Hannah in one word, it would be “extraordinary“. The training has been elevating both my personal practice and my teaching skills. It gave me confidence and a strong base of knowledge and deep understanding. 

Now, I feel more purposeful and empowered as a teacher and at the same time I feel I can empower my students even more with yoga and movement. Thanks for creating this masterpiece of a training :)

“This teacher training is amazing!” 

This teacher training is amazing! The knowledge that is given in such small segments really means you can go at your own pace and fit it in around your lifestyle. The energy from Hannah and Celest is really inspiring.

Everything from the guests who they have sharing knowledge, the support you get weekly is above and beyond. Having previously completed a TT online there really is no comparison. The time, the effort and the energy that has been put into this really shines through! 

JENNA

“I'll be forever grateful that I am part of it.” 

A word that pops up in my head, which describes this yoga teacher training best for me, is connectedness. Throughout this training we are connected to other fellow yogis from all around the world, we have regular call meetings with our amazing educators and most of all with Hannah and Celest. 

They support us in learning and gaining new skills, they are really here for us to make sure we connect to our true self so we leave this training as unique, skilled and well informed yoga teachers. I´ll be forever grateful that I am part of it.

“Never before in an online course have I been so ENGAGED” 

Alba Teacher Training isn’t just for yoga teachers…. Its for anyone who wants to bring yoga into their life. Hannah and Celest provide great information in accessible ways and build in positive community support. Never before in an online course have I been so ENGAGED with what I was learning, getting to know my course mates so well and being ENCOURAGED by and learning from them! After I complete the 200 hour teacher training I will be looking forward to the 300 hour course!

JOSIE

“I also love that Hannah and Celest inspire our unique creativity – ‘You be You’!” 

I love the teaching, the live sessions where we can ask questions and our smaller buddy groups where we can ‘practice’ in a supportive environment. Hannah and Celest are so supportive and helpful. I am learning so much around my own practice – my strengths and where I can focus on improving my practice.

Although the teaching aspect feels daunting, I am also inspired to be creative, to grow and share this beautiful practice with others. I also love that Hannah and Celest inspire our unique creativity – ‘You be You’!

“As a busy mom and yoga teacher, I find it perfect.” 

Six years back, I did a 200-hour YTT in India, and I've been teaching yoga ever since. Now, diving into the Alba Yoga Academy's teacher training has been a game-changer for me.

I didn't know Hannah before the course, and I love how she lives yoga off the mat. She's got this knack for sharing tools that help us find our own groove in bringing yoga philosophy into our everyday.

I was already a big fan of Celest, who somehow makes anatomy the coolest topic on the planet. And let me tell you, her insights into neuroscience? Absolute gold. They've truly transformed my classes and made a real difference for my students.

What I really like about the course setup is how the videos are just the right size—short and sweet. As a busy mom and yoga teacher, I find it perfect.

If you want to see your yoga teacher journey quantum leap, take this course.

“refreshing, non-dogmatic and fun” 

Hannah and Celeste did not only create a comprehensive course full of knowledge, information,  insights, interesting facts and hacks on all aspects of yoga, the course also breaths their passion for  the subject and it’s rather infectious ☺.  

As a student I am part of a fantastic international peer group. Weekly calls with great educators and a  learning group allow to discuss progress, struggles, questions that arise and do some first steps into  teaching in a safe and supportive environment. 

The course offers workshops with incredible guest tutors. Weekly live classes are challenging and  super fun at the same time. Hannah and Celeste are hands-on and approachable teachers, either on  a one-to-one level or on the weekly Q&A and life sessions. They are sincere about what they do but  are not taking themselves and their educator egos too seriously. They question the yoga industry and  its myths in a very professional way which makes this course refreshing, non-dogmatic and fun. Hannah and Celeste are total gems and I cannot recommend this 200h teacher training enough.

“What can I say? The course is absolutely amazing” 

What can I say? The course is absolutely amazing -  It's been a while since I have studied but I am just loving it.  The amount of work that you both have put into the teacher training is second to none, the attention to detail, and the time and effort that has gone into every single class, and  the beautiful manuals really shows. The way of splitting it up into bite size pieces is such a genius way of learning, and has really helped my brain. 

The wonderful tips and hacks that have been taught to help with all things yoga, mindfulness and meditation. The loving help that is available to nurture, and checking in on how we are doing, and the wonderful educators who are supporting us through this process. I am going to be sad when the live classes and educator meetings come to an end. It's been fun to meet and connect with so many lovely new people. Plus, it is exciting to experience self reflection and see how it's changing me as a person. Thank you Thank you Thank you!

“I've laughed, I've cried, I've faced my inner critic"

Learning to become a yoga teacher with Hannah and Celest at the Alba yoga academy has been nothing short of life changing for me. After many wonderful years in my role as 'Mum', my children have reached an age where they don't need me in quite the same capacity as they used to. Cue Mums midlife crisis. 

I have had somewhat of a love affair with yoga for around 12 years, and having followed Hannah and Celest for a few years on Instagram, I was intrigued when they announced their first YTT program. And it got me thinking. What if I didn't have to be just Mum anymore? What if I took a chance on myself and did something that was just for me? So I took a deep breath, and did just that. I signed up to the course and never looked back. 

I've laughed, I've cried, I've faced my inner critic and shared my vulnerabilities with some of the most supportive group of people I've ever met, and in doing so, have made some lifelong connections. I've dared to believe in myself and pushed myself out of my comfort zone. 

Thank you Hannah and Celest for helping me to believe in myself again.

“Hannah and Celest are incredibly supportive"

The Alba 200h teacher training is truly invaluable! There's an ocean of information in this course, but everything is broken into easily digestible chunks, so it's perfect for both experienced yogis, seasoned teachers, and anyone who's never done yoga before but wants to do a deep dive into anatomy, asana, philosophy, and even more! And having lifetime access to the course as well as any updates, is the best part!! No worrying about trying to cram it all in one go, and you can just take it at your own pace. I've been teaching for over 6 years now, and I've learned so much more than I expected. I've been able to directly help my clients in ways that I didn't think were possible before this training - not just with asana, but overall health. There's also a real sense of community, which is rare to see with most online training - Hannah and Celest are incredibly supportive and knowledgeable as well as the smaller group mentors (Lucie and Khala are the best!!) and guest speakers, while also consistently encouraging us to do our own research and to be ourselves - an "anti-cookie cutter" approach as they call it. Even though I'm on the other side of the world, I've been able to make most of the Zooms, and the recordings are uploaded very quickly, so you don't have to worry about time zones. Absolutely the best 200h yoga training you can do.

“The training has stretched me, challenged me, poked and prodded me in all aspects of my comfort zone."

The 200hr teacher training with Celest and Hannah has changed me. I mean it has changed me and what me is intrinsically, extrinsically and entirely. My vision, breath, brain, heart and soul are fundamentally more me than they ever were before. The training has stretched me, challenged me, poked and prodded me in all aspects of my comfort zone.

I am eternally grateful to this training for making me more me than I have ever been before.
