"Incredible teacher training program. They brought in teachers from all over the country. Extremely easy to work with in terms of customizing to each person's needs, especially with payments for the yoga teacher training (in case you can't pay up all at once, they are willing to work with you)."

The instructors truly cared about our understanding, experience, and success both during the program and after graduation.

"My experience with the Yoga Pod Tucson teacher training program was overwhelmingly positive. The instructors were knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping each student grow. The curriculum gave me a strong foundation in teaching methodology, anatomy, philosophy, and practical teaching experience. I also appreciated the supportive environment within our cohort. We encouraged one another throughout the training and formed friendships that made the experience especially meaningful. I completed the program feeling grateful for the experience and well prepared to continue learning and developing as a yoga teacher. I would highly recommend Yoga Pod Tucson to anyone considering yoga teacher training."

"I am so grateful that my experience for yoga teacher training was with Yoga Pod Tucson. I have been waiting a long time to find the studio that resonated when it comes to teacher training, Yoga Pod Tucson excels in so many aspects. The owners are fantastic, the leadership, the teachers, the studio itself, every single aspect of it stands in its truth and integrity and it really does shine. The YTT was multi-dimensional and it really brought so much to light. I came from Washington State to do this program with their BIPOC scholarship, and I am thankful for every bit of it :) Thanks Yoga Pod Tucson! Shout out to Shaelyn, an excellent leader."

"YPT 200hr training was incredible! I learned so much about yoga as a practice and learned so much about myself. There is a heavy emphasis on anatomy and how to make yoga for everyBODY. The training left me feeling confident in being able to lead a yoga class. Truly a life changing experience."

"Yoga Pod Tucson’s 300-hour teacher training was truly one of the most enriching experiences I’ve had as both a teacher and a student of yoga. This program deepened my understanding of anatomy-based sequencing, giving me the tools to craft classes that are not only creative but also smart, safe, and intentional. I came out of this training with so much more confidence in my ability to design sequences that serve different bodies and class styles. One of my favorite aspects of the training was getting to immerse myself in different styles like Yin, Restorative, and Yoga Nidra. Exploring these practices in depth gave me a whole new appreciation for their benefits and how to effectively weave them into my teaching. Lead teacher Shaelyn Delgado made the experience truly special. She has a gift for lifting teachers up, challenging us to think critically about yoga, and helping us refine our unique voices. Her guidance was thoughtful, supportive, and empowering. She didn’t just teach, but she created space for us to step into our own as teachers. The entire training was well-structured, immersive, and filled with insightful discussions, hands-on practice, and a strong sense of community. If you're looking for a training that will push you to grow while feeling completely supported, I can't recommend this one enough!"

"Enrolling in this yoga teacher training program was one of the best decisions I've made for my personal and professional growth. The curriculum was incredibly comprehensive, covering everything from anatomy and alignment to philosophy and teaching methodology. The instructors were knowledgeable and supportive, fostering a nurturing environment where I felt comfortable exploring and expanding my practice. Moreover, the sense of community among fellow trainees was invaluable, providing a network of support and encouragement that extended beyond the training itself. As a result, I not only gained the skills and confidence to become a successful yoga teacher but also developed lifelong friendships and a deeper connection to the practice. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to embark on their journey as a yoga teacher."

"I've never felt more supported in a group than in this YTT. My expectations were exceeded and I learned so many valuable things and was given the resources to utilize my new found knowledge. Yoga Pod will forever and ever hold a special place in my heart because of this training. Such a warm, welcoming, and supported environment which allowed me to thrive in my YTT 200."

"I am incredibly pleased with the Yoga Pod Tucson 300 hour teaching training program. I am very glad I made the decision to join. Shae is a true yoga scholar with a well-rounded background and training skillset. In particular she has a working knowledge of functional anatomy, both as it relates to yoga as well as movement in general. Her yoga flows are creative and dynamic, I learned so much about becoming a deeper teacher with a solid anatomy background. Her myofascial training woven into vinyasa is such a skillset and unique offering to be able to teach! Our other lead Kumari is a gifted yin, restorative, pranayama and subtle body teacher. Her teachings are accessible and tangible, preparing me to confidently teach each format. Shae brought in expert teachers from around the country to deepen our understanding of every area of yoga. It was truly an in-depth study of yoga to really ground me as I continue on my teaching journey. I had hoped to deepen my study of yoga, but what I feel at the end of training is like a completely transformed teacher, vibrating with confidence and a solid backing of skillsets. I highly recommend this training!"

"Training through Yoga Pod is one of the best things I’ve ever done, with no exaggeration. The consideration taken by the program director and the studio in scheduling guest instructors, developing engaging content, and supporting the individual passions of the participants is something that cannot be understated! I felt so held, inspired, and challenged working with Shaelyn Delgado and Kumari Sky as lead instructors, and with each new module and guest instructor came a new set of opportunities for interest and exploration. Coming from a more asana-based 200hr program, I felt like gaps in my knowledge were filled— especially in my understanding of anatomy (Shaelyn) and my comfort in guiding soft-body/energetic classes (Kumari, Cheryl Oliver). Yoga Pod Tucson is community-based to its bones, and the folks who are a part of the studio in any way have a pride and comfort that is felt by those who have the pleasure of “peeking in”. I’m grateful to have peeked in when I did and found such a family to join."

"I am so happy that I did my 300 hour YTT with Yoga Pod Tucson. As with any training, you will get out of it what you put into it, but there was so much knowledge between Shaelyn who ran the program, Kumari who co-facilitated it, and all of their guest trainers from around the country. The training covered such a wide variety of topics between anatomy and creating therapeutic classes, yang and yin, sequencing, myofascial release, restorative yoga, yoga nidra and guided meditation, yoga history and philosophy, energetic bodies, trauma informed yoga and being a welcome space, prenatal yoga, Sanskrit, and sacred sound. I felt very supported during the process, to both participate in and question everything. This also lead to teaching opportunities in studio. I believe this has made me a more knowledgeable teacher and now I have friends for life in this community here in Tucson. I highly recommend."

"Shae and Yoga Pod did a great job crafting a thoughtful program. If there were gaps, of which there were few, Shae was always on top of remedying situations. The studio itself deserves credit for the success of the program, but Shae is truly the heartbeat of the program and everything you could expect or want out of a lead instructor."

"The 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Yoga Pod Tucson was an incredible experience. I graduated from the program feeling well-versed in yoga anatomy and physiology, philosophy, practical teaching skills, ethics, sequencing methodology, and more. After teaching my practicum I feel fully prepared to begin teaching the public and confident that I am well-trained. I would recommend this program for anyone and everyone looking to become a really good yoga teacher."
