Yoga Teacher Training at the Yoga Underground is personal, flexible, and accessible. Not only did we receive sound instruction based in historical principles, scientific studies, and traditional approaches, but we were able to make it our own. This training takes you where you are at—even if you feel somewhat of a novice—and you decide what you want to get out of it.

It was a joy to work with the instructors and the fellow trainees. Over the course of five weeks, I saw each one of us blossom in beautiful ways. The Yoga Underground has become a home of learning, growth, and friendship for me.

Going into this I was hoping this class would give me clarity and guidance to a healthier more mindful life path. I had no idea what a complete mind, body, and spiritual journey this would turn out to be. It changed my life completely and I am forever grateful. I believe everyone, even those not interested in “yoga”, would benefit from Brittanys 200 hr ytt class.
Thank you a million.

I had my 200-hour training on my list of goals for years, and it only took me a few moments at the Yoga Underground to realize that this was where I wanted and needed to spend my time learning and growing. Not only did I learn how to sequence a beautiful class, I learned how to use my voice, adjust and guide people in positions, teach breathing and meditation, how to use music appropriately in classes, and so much more. However, the greatest thing I learned was that my own yoga journey is just beginning! There are so many things that I needed to be taught a firm foundation on, as well as several things that I was pushed to on an advanced level as well. I was only practicing yoga a few times a week before my training, and now it’s motivated me to practice every day! On top of that, I was teaching full classes just a week after my training. You can look forward to becoming comfortable teaching almost immediately and also a teacher that people love! Brittany and the Yoga Underground is an amazing place to be. I would suggest this training to anyone and everyone. If not for the purpose of teaching, but the sole purpose of finding something special inside of yourself.

My YTT experience isn’t something that can be summed up in a short paragraph or a few sentences. It was an experience that inspired me to evolve into a beautiful version of myself that I have come to admire each day. I learned the skills and confidence to teach a class by the end of 4 weeks, as well as carry out that confidence in the real world to pursue what I truly love. Brittany does an amazing job at showing each person that walks through those teacher training doors how to love themselves through the journey of YTT because it’s not an easy walk through the park. After YTT I felt like my understanding of yoga took leaps and bounds of growth and I understood the culture of yoga, the development, and how I can apply it to my own individual self. YTT has been on of the greatest experiences of my life because of the culture that Brittany has created in her classroom, it’s something you can’t put to words. I encourage everyone to try a class and if you are wanting to pursue teacher training, to ask Brittany about it and have a conversation with her! You will be able to feel exactly what she has to offer just by being around her.

If there was another definition under leader, Brittany’s name would be there. She is an exceptional leader. She is right there with you the whole time helping you to understand, embrace and apply yourself, the Asanas, and yoga philosophy.
 
Doing my yoga teacher training at The Yoga Underground was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life! I will definitely be going back to her for more training! The environment Brittany has created is beautiful. At The Yoga Underground I feel centered and free.

I took Brittany’s training in September, 2015. I actually had missed the start date, but was informed by Brittany that she would catch me up and that I could still join. Yoga teacher training was something I had aspired towards for a couple years at that point, yet even still, I was intimidated that I wasn’t ready or good enough. However, Brittany gave me no excuse not to jump in head first and begin, and even after the first day, I began to see my body and emotions begin to heal in a way that they had never been before.

I have looked and researched into many yoga teacher training courses from Salt Lake to Provo, and I know this sounds cliche, but I honestly could not have picked a more magical program. What I wanted from a program, that I wasn’t quite satisfied elsewhere with, was that I wanted more than just the yoga poses, adjustments and Sanskrit names. I wanted the philosophy. I wanted a taste of what it FELT like to consider the true 8 limbs. This may sound selfish, but I wanted a program I could find healing and empowerment in for myself that I could emanate and share, because that is what yoga has always meant for me. It has always been a savior in my low moments.

Brittany tapped into a way of understanding that yoga CANNOT be digested, lived, or expressed without self-love and actualization, and it is clear that through her program, she made it her mission to unravel that within us more so than just giving us facts to recite and perform. What I loved the most is that she invited a host of numerous experts and educators who specialized in everything from recovery through meditation, balancing chakras, yoga expression through dance, anatomy and physiology and the science of how to get in touch with our truest temperament type based upon our phenotype. It was so unique.

To simply say that Brittany created a wonderful teacher training program would be an understatement. Honestly, it is a place of healing, of letting go, of holding on, of creating, of spreading wings, of trusting, and of flying. She cultivated Yoga Chikitsa in its most true and beautiful sense. I hold this experience close to my heart and would recommend it to all I love!

Teacher training at the yoga underground is a thoughtful fusion of yoga instruction and inward reflection. The small groups create a very open and social atmosphere while also allowing for times of quietness and contemplation. Before training started I was expecting a physical challenge. While I did get stronger, the greater challenge was to slow down, be still, and think about who you are and where you want to be. This type of spiritual guidance expands beyond yoga practice and can be relevant to many other aspects of your life and inner self. Gaining a deeper understanding yourself will help you to better connect with others and be a more effective teacher. My favorite thing about Brittany’s training is how individuality is strongly encouraged as you find your own teaching style and voice. I feel equipped to create flowing, unscripted sequences and cultivate a space with a warm, welcoming atmosphere for all levels. I highly recommend training at The Yoga Underground, it is an invaluable investment and an experience you will cherish.

The Yoga Underground offers an incredible 200 Hour Teacher Training. The training accepts varying levels of experience, which allowed me to participate and excel in the program despite having little background. The Yoga Underground cultivates a positive, outstanding environment in which I was able to be inspired and motivated to learn and grow. I love this training because it helps you become an actual yoga teacher. After helping to master foundational concepts, poses, build a personal yoga philosophy and improve on your practice, Brittany capitalizes on developing good teachers. This sets the training apart from many other options. I had the opportunity to teach consistently. Although it was scary at first, it expedited my growth and gave me confidence to teach a real class. Brittany is engaging and makes everybody feel comfortable and capable–a feat that she has successfully achieved at the Yoga Underground.

I was so impressed with the description of TYU teacher training that I flew to Utah and spent one whole month absolutely absorbed in this delightful, daily immersion program. I loved every minute of my training. Brittany is an immensely gifted teacher. Being in her classes opens up possibilities and feels life giving. Her infectious enthusiasm and “can do” attitude on the mat make you feel like you want to try anything and aspire to whatever is the next level for you. I instantly loved the open, high flying and yet down to earth feel of this studio. Everyone was accepted at the spiritual/physical level they were on and it was a beautiful experience watching everyone thrive and improve. With such a small group, we were able to get to know and provide encouragement for each other. We were taught and then given many opportunities to sequence and teach classes and receive valuable feedback as we grew in confidence and ability. Brittany kept everything alive and fresh by mixing it up and bringing in knowledgeable resources from the community to expand our knowledge of meditation, chakras, street and mandala yoga. We went out into the community and enjoyed yoga in the beautiful outdoors, a visit to BYU to learn from the resident physical trainer, even a day trip to Salt Lake City to attend classes at different yoga studios to broaden our horizons. It was highly evident that Brittany puts her all into her teacher trainings, expertly and magically weaving together all of these different elements seemingly into the very fabric of my being so that at the end of the training I felt different from when I first started. My month in Utah flew by and I left feeling charged up and empowered with the experience, skills, and confidence I needed to teach and share with others the life giving skills I was privileged to receive. I highly recommend this teacher training to anyone and everyone who is interested in transformation. The Yoga Underground rocks!!!

My yoga teacher training experience at the Yoga Underground was absolutely priceless. Brittany is an incredible teacher, and is an expert when it comes to building creative sequences and crafting an effective class. I learned so much from practicing with her daily and gleaning from her wisdom and experience in our class discussions. Her curriculum is designed to give her students fundamental knowledge base in Ashtanga Yoga while also providing a wide variety of experiences, allowing each student to find their own individual direction in the broad world of yoga. Each day of training was enlightening, educational, and so much fun!

The two most valuable things I took away from her training were 1) the teaching experience — Brittany is skillful at teaching her students how to teach, and provides many opportunities for them to practice teaching in the training; and 2) the confidence to be an authentic teacher. Brittany has a gift for helping people discover their voice as a yoga teacher, encouraging them to “own” their individual style and strengths that they bring to a class. With these two skills, I felt confident pursuing teaching opportunities immediately after receiving my certification. My current students often comment on how much they enjoy my style of teaching and approach to yoga — I give all the credit to my training at The Yoga Underground!

I’ve wanted to do a yoga teacher training since I graduated college four years ago. While I loved the idea, I was also so intimidated, thinking I needed to be a certain type of person, have a certain type of body, or even have reached a certain level in my yoga practice. After a friend did her training with Brittany at The Yoga Underground, she convinced me I could do it. After the first day, all of my fears dissipated. Brittany’s program welcomes all levels and all types. Her curriculum is designed to help you better know yourself so that you can be a more effective, authentic teacher. The program is so well-rounded; I not only gained knowledge about Ashtanga yoga and how to better my own practice, but also learned life-changing lessons about meditation, teaching techniques, and methods to better know and understand myself and my students. I love that Brittany focused so much on us becoming the type of teacher we naturally are, not trying to fit any kind of stereotype or expectation.

The teacher training at The Yoga Underground completely changed my life. Once I finished, I had the confidence and knowledge I needed to build my own sequences and teach classes, but most importantly I’ve enjoyed better health, less stress, and honestly a more joyful life. I cannot say enough about this program and the passion, love, and fun that Brittany so naturally brings to it every day. You will not find a more compassionate, positive environment to deepen your practice, increase your self-knoweldge, love, and awareness, and transform you into a yoga teacher.

The Yoga Underground not only gave me the required 200 hours(and then some) for my teaching certification, it literally gave me a new lease on life. I found a fresh sense of self, healthy body, and a clearer mind. What I gained during training is something that money cannot buy. In terms of knowledge, in terms of practice, this studio is unparalleled.
There isn’t a distance I wouldn’t travel to in order to participate and attend The Yoga Underground Teacher Training Program. There are very few times in life, very rare breeds of teachers, whom one is fortunate enough to be touched by as a student. Brittany is, and forever will be held in my highest regard. She represents all that was, all that is, and all that will be true in this practice.

Whatever your hesitation, stop. Whatever the excuse, dismiss it. The Yoga Underground will change your life in every way possible. Brittany has one of the oldest soul’s of anyone I have ever been blessed enough to meet. Her intuitive capacity for teaching and exploring remains a mystery to me. All that I know is that I am by far, a better human for being around her. As a teacher, I have never appreciated another student until taking her training. She is the very definition of unconditional love.

Thank you. Thank you on so many levels for pushing me, for holding me, for making me stand on my own two feet. You have given me the tools to not only teach, but to hone my craft. To love my own practice, to love my own habitually incorrect alignment, to breathe, to focus to forgive. Every day on the mat is another chance. A chance to try again. You have given me the strength to pursue, to engage, to believe in my inherent passion. Brittany, this is a debt that can never be repaid. This life experience is unmatched.

Thank you Brittany. Thank you for seeing the lump of clay that I was before you, and for allowing the process to mold me. You will always be my North.

The words “amazing” and “life-changing” are often overused or misused nowadays. However, when I say these words to describe yoga teacher training at The Yoga Underground I mean them in their entirety. It was life-changing. I live my day-to-day life differently now because of what I learned. I have grown to understand, love, and accept myself better. I have less stress and anxiety and I am an overall happier person. Brittany is an amazing teacher and has created a curriculum that caters to all kinds of people. She knows how to connect and encourage you in the ways that will best help you. I went into teacher training thinking I would only learn about how to teach yoga but I came out of it with a different and improved perspective on living. I would highly recommend this training to anyone.

My training at the Yoga Underground was incredibly uplifting for my mind, body, and spirit. Brittany is a deep well of knowledge and gladly answers any questions about any aspect of yoga teaching throughout the course. I got so much out of the YTT program. I have heard of students who graduate from other teacher training programs and feel that they don’t actually know HOW to teach. They feel clueless when put in front of a group of students. I left the Yoga Underground’s program knowing full well how to teach any group of students from start to finish. The program goes in depth on certain topics such as poses, breathing, and mindfulness, while also covering the basics of teaching yoga, which many other training programs often leave out. My favorite thing about the course was that Brittany, The Yoga Underground’s studio owner and extremely educated and trained yogi, teaches the entire 200-hour course, aside from a handful of days in which she hires outside professionals to come in and share some valuable information on their area of expertise. She is dedicated to seeing her YTT students succeed!

I am so glad that I decided to certify with the Yoga Underground–Brittany is in it not for the money, but for the yoga, and it shows in everything she does. Her passion and creativity really drive the whole certification process from start to finish. Right after finishing the course, I started auditioning for yoga teaching jobs, and I have never once been nervous or intimidated, something I have Brittany to thank for. She makes sure that every student has ample opportunities to practice teaching full classes and gives feedback on how to improve. Beyond all that, though, is the new sense of being in the world that I have. My mindset will truly never be the same, and it is thanks to Brittany for opening so many new worlds to me!

Brittany’s advanced teacher training at The Yoga Underground was transformative and effective. Being in a smaller group allowed each of us to explore our questions and go into a deeper investigation of sequencing, cueing, and adjusting. Weaved into all of this was the foundation of yoga philosophy and how to make it practical, including and especially off the mat! We were shaped into better leaders – not just teachers – by taking on valuable projects and sharing them in the community. I treasured the time forging close connections and building relationships. We rallied together and supported each other with encouragement and feedback (and lots of practice!). Having a mentor who cares about you and facilitates experiences that inspire you to flourish is what makes this one of the best YTT programs out there.

Wowowow. Brittany’s YTT is life changing. I learned so much in just a short amount of time. I cannot even put into words how much I love the other trainees involved and how much love I have towards Brittany. I wish that I could hang out with all of them everyday. Brittany made the environment feel so safe and I felt as though I could be 100% myself all of the time. I went home every night from class so excited about all that I had learned and couldn’t even wait for the next day to come around. During the training, I was able to learn more about yoga, meditation, and most importantly, myself. I truly learned how to love myself and how to make time for myself to do the things that I love to do. I feel as though this training opened a whole new world for me and I truly feel like the Universe is helping me get to where I am supposed to be. If you are looking for making life long friends, learning more about how to connect to your true self, and looking to become the biggest badass really ever, this teacher training is for you. I love the studio, the other trainees, myself, and Brittany Andrews times infinity.

It’s hard to say what my favorite thing was in YTT, because I loved it SO MUCH! I signed up for this yoga training thinking I would just learn about yoga teaching—and I did– but the education and opportunities for deepening my understanding for my personal practice as well as learning more about my self-improvement and spiritually was unexpected and unparalleled to anything I’ve completed.

I love yoga so learning so much about it was my dream. I loved learning more about mediation—this was something that I really didn’t know much about prior to beginning. And I completely love the hands-on approach to teaching and how much teaching practice we got while going through the program. I could see the growth in myself and others from the first week of teaching to the last.

Brittney is an amazing instructor. I love the practical (instead of ideal) approach she takes to yoga. She helps everyone to feel that they can come as they are and that we are enough! Also I admire how she helps people to feel good about the practice they just did—in spite of whatever their body had to offer that day—and that she taught us to consider that as we are leading our classes.

Learning about how to teach different personality types was something that I’d never even considered, but it makes such a huge difference.

I also love that she keeps the classes pretty small so that we get a lot of individual attention. And I love the type of people she attracts to this program. The group dynamic was warm and welcoming and encouraging. I hope to stay in touch with everyone from the class!

Wow. wow. wow. What an amazing experience. I made so many deep friendships these past 5 weeks. The atmosphere for learning could not have been any more loving and supportive. These girls are friends for life. Brittany is amazing at encouraging the best parts of yourself to shine. She is always positive in her teaching. She gently nudged all of us to do so much more than we thought we were capable of! I left the 5 week training not only confident to teach my own classes, but also excited to do so! I got my first teaching job less than a week after leaving! She explains the business side of yoga so well. Brittany is a wealth of knowledge from her many years of travel and education. She has taken all the best things she has learned and put them into this course so that we don’t have to go on our own ten year journey to learn it all; Thank you, Brittany.

I really enjoy and admire that you being the owner of Yoga Underground, Brittany having so much on your plate, take time out of your busy schedule to train us/others. You are accepting and loving of every individual and have a honest desire to help each and everyone to reach their fullest potential. One of my favorite things to have learned was the law of attraction as well. I have a greater understanding on how to not only communicate and understand my needs but I have learned how to better communicate with others, and how to let others know that they are being understood. I also love how you have us immediately immerse ourselves the first week in teaching each other what we have learned. A great hands on experience, Thank you.

Yoga teacher training invited a sense of expansion into my life that is not just cool and dope and good, but is now totally essential to my sense of self. This training provided the content and experiences necessary to bridge turbulent worlds and establish a sense of serenity in my internal universe. I felt that Brittany was 100% committed to my growth and the growth of all my sisters in the group. Everything she did was for our benefit. I’m UBER grateful for all the shining souls I got to associate with every day! I met some of the most wonderful, beautiful, genuine spirits and fostered connections that I feel on a cosmic level. My life is TOTALLY different than it was before YTT. If you’re longing for your heart to go boom-boom and reach nearly explosive levels of love and connectivity, DO IT NOW!!!

The number one thing that I loved about this experience was how open it was to all levels. I was nervous coming into it that this course would be too much for me, but it was so inclusive for people at any level, shape, size, age, or stage in their life. The second thing that was the absolute best about this training was that there were 12 of us. Each of us became such close friends that will last forever. I have gotten so close with all of them and we have learned and grown with each other for the past couple of months. Overall, this training is incredible and if I am still in the area, I will definitely be taking TYU’s 300-hour YTT course as well. I love Brittany and I love TYU with my whole heart.

Certifying with The Yoga Underground was truly a life changing experience for me. I loved the variation and diversity of Brittany’s training. I appreciated that not only did I learn about the history of yoga and the power of meditation and mindfulness, but that I was also able to learn how to teach and sequence a yoga class. Brittany is an amazing teacher and mentor. She is so down to earth and her energy and zest for life is infectious! I have created life long friendships with my fellow YTT trainees. I am a better version of myself thanks to what I gained from this experience! I highly, highly recommend to anyone who is interested in doing a yoga training to do it through The Yoga Underground!

Everyone told me that I would love my teacher training, but I had no idea how much it would change my life for the better. From the moment I stepped into class, I felt safe, supported, and free to explore myself. I was very nervous and worried that my personal yoga practice was not advanced enough to complete a teacher training, but the wonderful group of people in my class and the workshops held helped me gain more confidence than I could have ever expected in such a short time frame. By the second week of class I felt confident enough to invite my friends to the studio for a practice class. I had the chance to teach 3 separate practice classes during the 5 weeks of my YTT, and I felt so confident and empowered during each of them. I made lifelong friends during the training and I am so grateful for the love and support I received from the other students and of course from you and Stephen. Overall, this class enriched my life in too many ways to count. I was given practical tools to help in my yoga ventures as well as my personal life. It was so much more than a course on teaching yoga, it was a beautiful exploration of mind, body, and soul. I can’t wait to continue my education in the 300 hour training next month!

I loved EVERYTHING about my training experience. But if I had to sum it all up into one thing that would be… self love. I learned to love myself through the things taught, the people I met and the fact that I faced my biggest fear. Being the center of attention. The one in front of people. It mortified me. I almost wanted to quit when I found out I had to teach a class open to the public! But I did it! I did it…. And I lived to tell the tale lol and I am soooo excited to do it again. I’m excited to look stupid, to learn, to grow… and I’m just so excited to continue on my yoga journey. Thank you soooo much for being YOU Brit!! You are amazing. And I’m so grateful for you and everything I learned on my YTT journey. Xoxoxo

I just really loved the community – being a part of a yogi community, having yogi friends that became a family, doing yoga every day with everyone, creating such a safe space in my life where I could be free to express myself and cry and try my hardest and open up. What a beautiful thing that was. I feel like I was able to deepen my practice, but also my love and appreciation for yoga in my life. I was able to get better at something I love, and that’s always such a fun feeling. I grew in confidence in myself, like yeah, this is actually something I can do, and do well at! And I just felt so much love from you and the group throughout the whole process. It truly was transformative, and it has helped me to establish a knowledge that I need yoga in my life for the rest of my life. Namaste <3
