Testimonials

This is a thorough, well thought-out training program, led by brilliant, compassionate, caring guides. The training exceeded my expectations (and I had pretty high hopes!)

Offering years of experience and a wealth of knowledge, Bobbie and Karin created an environment of support for their students’ personal and professional growth and development. They were always readily available to us and remain deeply committed to their students’ success. In addition to their teachings, Robert Litman provided expert education on anatomy and physiology.

Covering all aspects of yoga, we delved into way more than seemed possible in a 200 hour course. No stone was left unturned and I look forward to continuing to learn from these outstanding yoga guides. I’m extremely grateful I went with Soma Yoga Teacher Training.

Rachel Fox ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When I decided to do the 200 hour yoga teacher training with Bobbie in 2004, I had no intention of teaching - I just wanted to deepen my yoga practice.

Through Bobbie’s warm, precise, creative teaching, I developed the confidence to become a successful teacher - mostly of older people (I was already older) - but really, people of all ages and abilities.

Wherever I taught (Adult education programs, gyms, camp, afterschool programs, Over-55 communities, Soma Center), people told me that they had never received such detailed instructions for coming into poses, and had never been presented with options for making a pose a possibility for their bodies. This is all due to Bobbie, who blends movement and other complementary practices into traditional yoga teaching.

Bobbie gave me a second career that was so fulfilling because I was able to create a loving community where my students and I learned from each other.

Aviva Ray ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Outstanding learning experience expertly guided by Bobbie Ellis and Karin Weinstein with knowledge, empathy and caring. Personal attention and continuous support throughout the training.

A wonderful experience, not just for learning but for personal growth as well.

Dory Marcus ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had the honor of being in Bobbie’s very first Soma Yoga Teacher Training in 1997. This training was life changing for me. I learned not just how to be a great yoga teacher I grew and expanded in ways that I didn’t even expect, which gave me so many opportunities in my life. This was the greatest gift I ever gave myself. I have been teaching ever since!

Bobbie holds a space full of compassion, knowledge and wisdom that take you deep on a journey into the practice of Yoga. This training will give you everything you need to know to be the best yoga teacher you can be. Bobbie teaches every aspect of yoga so when you are complete with your training you are a fully confident Soma Yoga Teacher.

Pamela Jane ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It’s been nearly 20 years since I’ve completed my Soma Yoga Teacher Training with Bobbie and this experience continues to resonate in my life, both personally and professionally.

The training was exceptionally thorough, well-planned and delivered. The group of fellow trainees was small, friendly and encouraging. Bobbie, through her example, showed us how to be effective yoga teachers: knowledgeable, understanding and accepting.

Due to life’s circumstances, I did not start teaching until about 10 years ago. Having relocated to the UK, I have trained with many internationally acclaimed teachers over the years. However, I always come back to my foundational training with Bobbie to inform the rest of my practice/teaching. The Teacher Training lies at the heart of my own yoga journey, both as a practitioner and teacher of yoga.

Twenty years on, I am still filled with gratitude for the opportunity to train with Bobbie. I whole-heartedly recommend this training to anyone who would like to deepen their own yoga experience, as a student, as a teacher, or of course, both.
