"Before enrolling in the training at Chi-Town Shakti I researched nearly a dozen other programs throughout the Midwest. i was impressed by the depth of study this training offered, and knew the small class size and length of the course would provide me with the support I needed. The instruction was detailed and provided me with the tools and skills I need to be a great Yoga teacher. I have so much gratitude for Bhakti and the staff at Chi-Town Shakti." -Rachael H.

"The Shambhava School of Yoga's teacher training was incredible! I learned so much about my practice, my teaching, and myself. Through studying pranayama, meditation and asana I grew into a true Yoga teacher- one whose love of Yoga has become grounded in a strength of knowledge and an open compassion for all students of Yoga. Truly a magnificent and life changing experience!" -Alexa P.

"I began my journey with teacher training wanting to deepen my physical practice and be certified to teach. Although I still find joy in the physical practice, the training has opened my mind and heart to the spiritual life I have been so hungry for. I am a happier, healthier and more connected person, and I cannot thank Bhakti and her staff enough for the knowledge, guidance and experience they have so selflessly offered me. My life is fulfilling, my purpose is clear, and I am comfortable with this shifting every moment of every day. Thank you." -Addison D.
