Yoga Testimonials

"I can't say enough about my YTT, I know that I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I expected to learn about and how to teach yoga. I did not expect the self awakening and healing or the intimate bond formed between the group and nature. I found a true sense of love within myself and in the world. My three weeks of YTT were exceptional and profound."

"My YTT was everything I could have dreamed of and so much more... It has transformed not only my life, but the way I view myself and all of creation.  Through this journey I have tapped into who I truly am, and always was- It has enabled me to heal, walk through fear and trust that there are much larger forces at play here- guiding me on my path, showing me my purpose in this life.  It is now my mission to help guide others on their path of self-realizations and healing... I cannot say enough about this experience except- buckle up!  You are in for the ride of your life ;)"

"My yoga retreat to Peru was amazing, life changing & one to certainly remember. I am so thankful that I had Darin and Lacey as my guides as I discovered: shamanic healing traditions & ceremonies, practiced yoga, meditation & immersed myself in Peruvian culture. The retreat center felt like our little haven. It was clean, welcoming & provided the perfect home base during the retreat. The retreat had a beautiful balance of personal time and group time, time in nature & time in town. I highly recommend Darin & Lacey's shamanic yoga retreat to anyone interested in learning more about yoga, cultivating their own inner light, discovering medicinal plant ceremonies in Peru or just in general, want an authentic immersion into the country and its traditions. Thank you, Darin & Lacey for being simply wonderful guides along the journey!"

"Our days started early with meditation in the open-air shala, with the sun rising over the lake and the volcanoes, followed by body-warming yoga. The yoga we would practice in the mornings was the yoga sequence that we would break down pose by pose later in the day, as we would prepare ourselves to teach the sequence and the poses. Following my experience, I feel prepared to confidently teach a class.”

“The fire circles at the start of our training immediately showed me that this school stood for more than just becoming a yoga teacher. I could feel the sacredness of this school and land when we started by creating a Talisman to burn, shedding our unwanted layers. We called to the winds of the North, South, East, West, Father Sky & Mother Earth to hear. The compassion and comfort of our teachers allowed us to all evolve in the ways that we naturally desired. I am so grateful to have met such inspiring friends and healers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart....Jai!”

"Lacey is an amazing guide, i completed my 200hr YTT with her in Peru and her knowledge and passion for yoga inspired me. She is very grounded, peaceful and connected to Mother Earth and my experience was truly unforgettable."

"Working with Darin and Lacey is a special treat! They employed me at their healing dome at Wanderlust Tahoe in 2014, and from day one I felt held and thoroughly guided through my experience. Taking their yoga class is equally enjoyable. Their warm hearts, sparkling souls and contagious smiles create a beautiful and sacred healing space in which to surrender to my Self. I highly recommend any time that you can spend with these two. It will nourish your soul deeply."|"Working with Darin and Lacey is a special treat!

“I was called to Costa Rica to couple my advancement with a deep spiritual cleanse and ran with it, only to find one of the best experiences I could have imagined -- far exceeding any expectation I set and more deeply purifying than I initially recognized I needed.”

"I could have not asked for better to start this journey. Darin and Lacey are the kindest most patient and loving teachers I have met. They chose a very beautiful and mystical location for the training which makes it all the more special. I personally wasn't doing this course with the intention to teach straight away but more so to deepen my spiritual practices, feel more comfortable with creating my own ceremonies, to make yoga a lifestyle and stay on this path with devotion and conviction. I feel I received and learned exactly what I went looking for, plus I feel like I could happily teach a class now which is not something I ever felt comfortable with. I loved every minute of this experience, even the ones that were emotionally challenging. I would highly recommend it. I intend to keep taking courses and furthering my knowledge with Sacred Paths no doubt. ~ Ahó"

I have so much gratitude for having found sacred paths and the experience that was offered. As I reflect on the journey I am especially grateful for the variety of approaches and content that we learned. Connecting to the elements and the natural world around was healing and enlightening. It was obviously very intentionally planned out. The instruction was very high quality. It was truly a life changing experience.

"The 200hr training was a step towards my health and I can feel new pathways opening up in my system. There is space and expansion in places that I haven't felt for a while and this is just one of the gifts that I have received. It was a journey of movement, laughter and ritual and the beauty of it was the on-going knowledge that rained on us - colorful, rich and full of Life. That's Sacred Paths Yoga."

I completed the 200hr online YTT with Sacred Paths and I really appreciated this format as I still reference the material frequently.

I love the variety of teachers and material available, the training and workshops are an excellent tool to assist you in planning your own classes, highly recommend Sacred Paths.

The Sacred Paths Yoga 200hr YTT is well structured to provide a basic understanding of a wide scope of yoga and meditation with a unique emphasis on self discovery and application. The Sacred Paths Yoga 200hr YTT training in 21 days is a rigorous program, with a structure that can prepare students to be able to teach and/or deepen their practice immediately after completing the program. Some of the best parts of my training were instructors Hana Pepin and Adrianna Peters, and the beautiful setting of Costa Rica.

Sacred Paths is an incredible institution! Their 200-RYT was transformation, well-structured, and inclusive. I felt like I learned more from Darin and Lacey in 3 weeks than I had in all of the previous years of personal practice and attending classes. They have artfully drawn from a variety of cultures and disciplines in a way that allows students to take what serves them and begin to formulate their own model of what it means to live a yogic life. Beyond learning, this was a well-facilitated opportunity to unplug in a beautiful place and reconnect with yourself and those around you. Kudos to this team!
