200 Hour Yoga Teachers 2024

 I loved my 200 hr Hatha Yoga Teacher Training with Jenn! It was so informative and I learned a ton. I completed another 200 hr Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training in 2020 online during COVID and although I know that I wanted a refresher, I didn't realize that the two trainings would be so completely different (in a good way) and I am so happy that I signed up for the training. It went by so quickly and there were A LOT of hours spent on this training. I enjoyed every module and I really liked the weekends in-person, because I felt like they were so valuable. One of my favorite parts of the training were the Anatomy and Philosophy lessons. The Anatomy lessons were amazing and Anne is so great! I loved learning from Rebecca during Philosophy because we didn't dive very deep into that during my first training and Rachel presented the topics in a way that peaked my interest. I also loved her music and the chanting was great at well.   Jenn is an outstanding teacher and I have learned so much from her in just under one year of knowing her. I met her that the new studio after moving back up to Ohio from Florida and was in search of a new yoga studio. Her space feels like home and her classes challenge me in the best way possible! I love her style of teaching and this yoga training was exactly what I needed at this point in my life. I am excited to begin teaching 1:1 sessions at my studio and I can't wait to see what's in store! Thank you Jenn, Rebecca, & Anne! 

 Hello! I am so happy you are here -- I am Kristyn Waterwash and I am a 200 hour certified Yoga Teacher. I completed my first training in 2020 that was Vinyasa style training and just completed my second training that was Hatha style. I am looking forward to teaching beginner students by offering private sessions (1:1). My sessions will focus on the introduction to yoga, posture alignment, and instruction on how to mindfully move your body.

 When you do yoga teacher training with Jen, you can expect to find an excellent balance of asana training, philosophy, anatomy, and applied theory. The applied theory involves how to teach a class with intention, meaning that you learn the rhythmic quality of how to guide people through an experience. You learn that leading a class is much more than just speaking at people and calling out poses, but that there is an art to how a class should be structured. You learn how to tie in themes, how to use yogic philosophy to set a tone, and how to bring a sense of groundedness and connection to a group of strangers.   She also teaches you how to make modifications and use props to ensure that your class/practice remains accessible. This was a big focus of the training: ensuring that we learned about anatomy and how to use props and make modifications as needed. This is important to me because I want to be able to responsibly guide people through a practice with the goal of them having a sense of positive body awareness, that they've learned something about themselves. That's very hard to do when you are experiencing discomfort! Props and modifications are key to keeping a practice accessible, and Jen and her fellow teachers all honor this approach.   There is a special bond created with your cohort. It's a challenging program: you are being pushed in a unique way— in mind, body and spirit— so there's nothing more special than being able to connect with people who are moving through that experience with you. We are all very different people and we left training with a special place in our hearts for each other, which is a beautiful life lesson in and of itself.  

 I found yoga while undergoing a big life and career transition. I turned to yoga seeking some form of movement as a way to relieve stress and because my therapist told me that I needed to get out of my head and move into my body. I had no idea what she meant! haha Then I starting doing gentle and restorative yoga regularly— I felt the stress melt away and simultaneously had big waves of gratitude come about through tears. I was hooked, and remained dedicated to learning more about the connection between yoga and how it can be practiced to move from the mind into the body. 

I went into Wild Nurturer's 200-hour Hatha Yoga Training program to learn more and understand more about yoga from both the physical and spiritual aspects, mainly to enhance my own yoga experience.  I didn’t really see myself having the confidence or will to want to teach yoga, but my experience through this program has changed how I feel about that, and I am now more open to the possibilities, and the desire to share the knowledge I’ve gained with others.    I feel this was a very well-rounded class and we learned everything from the history of yoga, understanding the anatomy aspect and proper alignment in the asanas,  how to build and sequence a class, how to TEACH a class, the Chakras and the mind/body/spiritual connection, and Yoga philosophy, as well as the practical/business side of teaching. It was very challenging at times, but I enjoyed every part of it and gained so much confidence in myself, becoming more self-aware, and having a deeper sense inner peace. I know this is just the tip of the iceberg so to speak, and there is so much more to learn. I’m excited to see more about how the knowledge I’ve gained will continue to enhance my own yogic experience, and to see where the road takes me.  

 I’m a 3-year retiree who decided to embark on the journey of attaining my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Certification, after having practiced yoga myself for 14 years (thanks to my daughter’s influence!). The spiritual connection and “community” aspect of practicing yoga helped me realize that I was a part of something much bigger and I wanted to take a deeper dive into learning more about that for my own personal enrichment. Having attained my Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki Master Certification in 2015, I felt that becoming a Yoga teacher would allow me to share the benefits of both of these holistic and spiritual practices with others.    The style of Hatha yoga that I’m bringing is Gentle, Beginner and Chair yoga, available to all levels and abilities. I hope you will join me in learning how the practice of yoga can enhance your life through gentle body movement and the connection of mind, body and soul.  

 This program changed my life. I didn't know what to expect and I couldn't have imagined the end result. They say yoga effects your physical, mental, and spiritual health and I can say all those came true for me. It was not easy but it was worth it. There was a lot of things, at my age, I never thought I would do from a shoulder stand to making my own video! 

 Ive just completed my 200 hour Certified Yoga Training  and can't wait to start teaching what I have learned. At 48 years old I got sick and tired of being sick and tired and decided to go to a yoga class. Six years later I am stronger physically and mentally than I have ever been. Let me teach you about your body through yoga....no experience necessary, we all start somewhere. 

 My training was great! I learned so much and have a new appreciation for yoga. The option for once a month meets was much easier for me to accommodate than spending multiple days away from my family and work to receive the certification hours. 

 Yoga has provided me so much more than I originally anticipated when I started my practice. I have not only strengthened my body, but I have strengthened my mind. I have utilized yoga endlessly over the years to grow as a person in all area of life. Nothing brings me greater joy than sharing the benefits of yoga with others! 

 Taking the 200 hour Yoga Teacher training with Jennifer at Wild Nurturer has been life changing.  I learned so much about myself throughout the class. Proper alignment in yoga asanas of course but this training included so many aThespects of yoga such as the basic Chakras, yogic philosophy and the science of yoga. I would recommend this class to anyone  looking to teach yoga or just to deepen their personal understanding and knowledge of what yoga is about.  

 I completed a 200hr Yoga Teacher traiing at Wild Nurturer Yoga with Jennifer Langsdale located in Concord, Ohio. I came to yoga over 15 years ago looking for the philosophical "inner" change that yoga can bring and I was not dissapointed. The inner calm the Restorative Yoga practice brought to me is beyond anything I have experienced. Practicing yoga has the potential to bring health and healing to all aspects of our human existence including physical, spiritual and mental. 

 Hello, my name is Aleena! I started my journey in 2017 beginning into the world of holistic wellness. I started with my Reiki certifications completing them in 2021 leaving me as a Reiki Master Usui & Holy Fire ®. I complimented my Reiki practice with Mala Creation workshop and furthering my knowledge in Crystals. In 2022, I began my education with the Wild Nurturer completing Jennifer Langsdale’s Integrative Wellness Program which included a certification in 300hr YTT specializing in Restorative and Trauma informed yoga and Level one Aromatherapy certification. Furthering my education in 2023 I joined the Wild Nurturer’s 200hr Hatha Yoga program and Inner Wisdom ® Yoga therapy program. 

  My name is Ashley Leaf, I have been practicing yoga for 10+ years and I have loved every moment of it (especially savasana!) I love exploring and discussing all things “woo” chakras, astrology, and tarot to name a few. 

  Yoga teacher training is something that has truly changed my life. I learned about the philosophy, the practices, the asanas, and most importantly, about myself. The environment and community that was build by learning with a small supportive group was fantastic. I felt heard, seen and supported throughout this journey with a lovely group of supportive people that have certainly become lifelong friends. I am excited to share the practices I have learned from this training with all my future students!

Monica Kelson Certified 200 Hour Teacher My goal for YTT was to gain more confidence and learn more about yoga. Jennifer has so much knowledge to share about yoga, both the physical and psychological parts. I loved learning more about the chakras. I feel like I have learned a lot about myself and yoga through the training. I am definitely more confident and I look forward to explore my continued yoga journey.   Teaching Hatha yoga, specifically slow flow and restorative yoga. Available for private sessions. monicakelsonyoga@gmail.com 

 I think the program was really well done.  I feel like I received a well-rounded training that covered many topics.  Comparing notes with other teachers I know, I realized Jen's program put a much larger emphasis on learning how to sequence, forcing us to think for ourselves when creating sequences, and find our own teaching voices instead of just parroting her.  I am truly grateful for this instruction and believe it has prepared me well to teach.
