You’ll also get access to some self-paced coursework you can start before the training begins — perfect for building in some flexibility from the start.
WHY BECOME A YOGA TEACHER?
To remind others & ourselves of our True Essence. In a world filled with constant noise and clutter that deter us from our true Self, finding a moment of stillness is precious.
On a conscious level, we as humans have forgotten our deep, spiritual nature. We are walking around in a fog and have lost touch with our Divine Essence. We identify ourselves through the lens of a confused society, helplessly giving into their demands and pressure; yet, our souls crave to remember.
Quieting the mind is not about silencing thoughts, but about finding a peaceful coexistence with them. Through our exquisitely curated 200HR Yoga Teacher Training Program, we guide you towards inner silence, where true wisdom and clarity reside.
If you’re passionate yoga student…

Meet Your Trainers (Isabella & Laura)
Isabella Gutfreund (ERYT-500, YACEP, RYS 200) is a dedicated and inspiring yoga teacher who has been training students to become yoga teachers for nearly two decades. Her deep respect for the transformative power of yoga shines through in every class she leads & every hands-on adjustment she gifts. Beginning her journey as a certified Kundalini teacher through the Kundalini Research Institute, Isabella eventually found her spiritual home in Ashtanga Yoga—a practice that continues to profoundly shape her life and teaching.
She has completed extensive training with world renowned teachers including David Swenson, John Scott, and David Kyle (Rocket Yoga), as well as Sanskrit studies through the American Sanskrit Institute and via her Teacher Shantala Sriramiah of Veda Studies. Isabella has also studied directly with Saraswati and the late R. Sharath Jois in India, where she returns annually for a Yatra pilgrimage to deepen her spiritual and personal practice.
***
Laura Kuah (ERYT-200, YACEP) fell in love with Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga after attending a 2018 workshop with Saraswati & Sharmila Jois. As a yoga practitioner for over a decade, it was a series of life events which led her to Heart N Soul Yoga Studio, where she found a supportive Mysore practice under the direct guidance of her main teacher, Isabella Gutfreund. With lots of “blood, sweat and tears” + tough love from Isabella, Laura’s her consistent yoga practice became a transformative force—deeply enriching her life, mental health, and overall body positivity. She has gone on to become a certified teacher, assisting in the Mysore Classroom and has also studied with some of the best Ashtanga teachers out there, such as John Scott, Kino MacGregor, David Garriges and Peg Mulqueen and Jen Rene. Laura enjoys counting in Sanskrit for led Ashtanga classes, Vedic chanting and also studies with Shantala Sriramiah (Veda Studies). Since 2022, she has been a certified Restorative Yoga & Sound Healer, bringing an element of healing + wellness alongside her Ashtanga discipline.
We look forward to welcoming the 2026 YTT 200HR CO-HORT to the Shala!
