    I'm so glad I took this training. It was affordable, and the curriculum was flexible. I worked at my own pace and took so much from the whole experience, deepening both my practice and my teaching. I feel like I've grown immensely as a person throughout this training, and I'm eager to continue my journey as a yoga teacher.

    I would certainly recommend the 200YTT to anyone considering it. I got a holistic experience, not just a teacher training. This is a gift.

    I just completed my YTT500hr certification with HJYU, which all started back in 2019 when my brother, cousin, and I all joined Happy Jack's YTT200hr Hero's Journey in Muskoka Ontario with open eyes and open hearts. It has been such a fulfilling journey for me, and by no means the end. HJYU's community is filled with incredible people!

    I did my YTT 200 HOUR training through happy Jack and honestly best decision I took. Jack and Hanna are wonder people and they truly intent you not to just get a certificate but help you transform yourself the best version. The community is also great, everyone's really supportive and it is such a safe space to grow and be vulnerable.

    I have had an amazing experience doing the 200 hr. teacher training course at Happy Jack. I have felt safe all the time and been challenged to do what I didn't expected I could. I can only recommend it if you want to do something great for yourself.
