About True FLOW Yoga Teacher Training
True FLOW Yoga teacher training was created to fill the need for a return to the ancient tradition of transmitting physical, mental, and spiritual yogic knowledge from teacher to student in an intimate setting. Yoga training, like so many other things in our society today, has become a corporate enterprise, a big and popular money-making business. This often means that authenticity and individualized attention are traded for more students and more profit. Because True Flow Yoga accepts only a limited number of students at one time (12 students maximum), each student is viewed and guided on a personal, one-on-one basis.
Teaching philosophy & approach
"True teachers use themselves as bridges over which they invite their students to cross; then, having facilitated their crossing, joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create bridges of their own.” ~ Nikos Kazantzakis
True FLOW Yoga was founded under the assumption that there is more than one right answer. Therefore, various styles of yoga including but not limited to Vinyasa Flow, Iyengar, Ashtanga, Restorative, and Yin will be discussed and explored. Students will be encouraged to see Truth in all its forms and to practice and teach in the way that most genuinely moves them.
In this non-dogmatic Yoga Teacher Training (YTT), a broad overview of yoga’s many layers will be revealed. Students will be encouraged to pick and choose only that which rings true from this tremendous wealth of knowledge. Finally, they will use this wisdom to make their yoga practice and teaching their own.
Delve deeper into your practice
Although this 200 hour YTT is ideal for someone who wishes to teach yoga, it is not solely for that purpose. Many people who have been practicing yoga for a while and see countless benefits from their practice inevitably desire to delve deeper into their understanding of yoga. They realize that there is a limit to how much they can learn from a led group yoga class. Reading about yoga and talking to others about it is a great start, but it is no replacement for the traditional individual teacher-student relationship. There is no college course or community class where you will learn all that you learn in a yoga teacher training program. It will change your life and the way that you view your place in it.
Tuition
Regular tuition is $3950 but with Early Registration discount, tuition goes down to just $3450 if you register at least 2 months prior to the start of training. A $600 deposit is all that is required to hold your space and it goes towards your tuition. We offer monthly payment plans and do not charge any interest. We accept cash, check, money order, and credit card. Contact us for more information.

“A truly phenomenal and life-changing training program that is taught by Brynn Rybacek, a masterful and experienced teacher who is passionate about teaching. Brynn is one of the best yoga teachers I have met so it was no surprise to see that her teacher training program echoes the same passion and professionalism she applies to her yoga teaching. Similar to Brynn's yoga classes, the program builds up strategically allowing students to absorb the information in a seamless and non-intimidating way. The classes are meticulously organized and taught in a clear, thoughtful and insightful manner. Unlike many other teacher training programs, True Flow teacher training program gives many opportunities to all the students to teach multiple times throughout the training arming them with valuable experience that they can put to use after the completion of the training. It is also amazing to experience first-hand a deeper look behind what makes a great yoga teacher as Brynn gives her secret sauce to her students without holding anything back. The program gives the necessary tools to students to have a deeper understanding of the yoga practice, get valuable information on human anatomy and impact of yoga poses on different muscle groups, get an appreciation of the spiritual side of yoga and its philosophy, and be confident about designing classes as well as teaching different styles and different levels of the practice. An inspirational and transformational teacher training program that I recommend wholeheartedly to anyone looking to deepen their practice or become a yoga instructor.” - Huma Gruaz
“I recently completed the 200 hour yoga teacher training program through True Flow Yoga, and, let me tell you, there's a reason you see nothing but glowing reviews about it on here. What an incredible experience! Brynn is such a knowledgeable teacher and mentor. I learned so much during this training including: yoga philosophy, asana, anatomy, meditation practices, breathing practices, etc. Plus, I gained a class-full of new friendships with some amazing souls. This was a truly transformative experience that I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to participate in. I highly recommend this YTT program.” - Dru Coleman
“True Flow Yoga Teacher Training was truly one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I am SO thankful I found a way to do this 3 month 200 hour teacher training with Brynn. I had the good fortune of meeting Brynn in early 2016 and after several months of going to her class, I was led (by the universe!) to her amazing program. I am one of those people with a very busy corporate job that requires a lot of travel. I share that in case you are one of those people reading this review. I wasn't sure if I could find a way to do this and make the commitment to 2 weeknights a week and one weekend per month schedule. I am so thankful that I listened to my calling to do this training because where there is a will there's a way and doing this training truly has made my life (and corporate job) so much more peaceful and was worth every ounce of the commitment. I cannot say enough positive things about Brynn. I am one of her biggest fans. And if you meet her and take one of her classes, I guarantee you will be too. Never have I experienced such an AMAZING one of a kind teacher like her which is why I even considered doing teacher training to deepen my practice by learning from her. She is a humble master to say the least. Her practice is incredible. Her curriculum is so well-rounded, incorporating a lot of the beautiful philosophy behind Yoga from the Yoga Sutras. She is incredibly well-organized and always on time. And she has the most beautiful spirit that peacefully and calmly teaches you what yoga is all about - living in love and light for yourself and others and by example of that principle. Anyone considering teacher training should DEFINITELY do Brynn's program. I had no idea what to expect and didn't even consider any other trainings (very unlike me!) since I knew nothing would compare to what she would offer. Again I cannot say enough positive things about this training. My practice and knowledge are on a completely different level and my life is forever changed for the best by going through her program... Brynn, you are such a gem...my forever gratitude to you my dear. You will always be my yogi guru! Namaste” - Lindsey Silva
“Deepening my physical and spiritual practice of yoga through the True FLOW Yoga Teacher Training Program under Brynn's guidance is, without question, one of the most valuable things I have ever done. As a dancer I am drawn to Brynn's teaching style because of the emphasis she places on healthy anatomical alignment in each pose and how clearly she articulates the subtle physical adjustments necessary to find length and create space in the body. I also appreciate her focus on establishing a steadily rhythmic breath pace to drive each practice. Each of her classes are thoughtfully designed to progress towards a challenging peak that pushes me beyond what I believe I am capable of and then draws back towards relaxation and meditation. While in her classes I have benefited from the meditative environment her teaching style fosters because it encourages an unbroken concentration that allows me to journey deeper within and challenge myself. My experiences in her classes had been unlike any others and I realized I needed to complete my teacher training under her instruction if I hoped to one day inspire growth in my students the way she had inspired me. Throughout TFY Teacher Training Brynn shared her wisdom in an intimate setting and in a way that demonstrated her concern for the progress and growth of each trainee. She recognized our individual needs and addressed them with encouragement and constructive feedback. The training program was well-paced, well-organized, and well-balanced as she spent time discussing every aspect of the modern-day practice of yoga including proper alignment of each asana, yogic philosophy, sanskrit, teaching methods, sequencing, and more. I could not have asked for a better individual to train with. Brynn is truly an enlightened guide and I feel humbled to have had the opportunity to deepen my understanding of yoga through her teacher training program.” - Stefanie Maughn
“I would take this teacher training every year if I could. It was a life changing experience that helped me not only improve in yoga, my ability to teach, and overall confidence but also helped me develop better personal habits to relieve anxiety and stress in my daily life. Brynn went above and beyond as our teacher and the amount of care she put into each class was incredible. Despite my huge fear of public speaking I felt ready to teach by the end of our training and am still teaching regularly over two years later. Teaching makes me a better person every day and I wouldn't have been able to get here without the experience I had in my training with Brynn at True Flow Yoga.” - Jacquelyn Jesser
“Best investment in myself I could have made. I recently completed 200hr YTT with Brynn. She is an awesome teacher and creates an environment fit for practicing yoga, she intuitively knows what her students need and exudes grace, gratitude and good humor (on top of her extensive knowledge and experience in yoga asanas, yogic philosophy, anatomy, etc). I would like to complete my 300hr training next, if Brynn offered it I would take it. I can't wait to attend one of her Costa Rica or Maui retreats in the near future. I attend her monthly pop up classes any chance I get and always walk out of True Flow feeling more like myself, more grounded, compassionate and curious. You should definitely sign up!” - Isabel Vo
“True Flow Yoga Teacher Training is absolutely amazing!! It is definitely perfect for anyone that is serious about teaching. I don't know any other training that not only educates you in every aspect that you need as a teacher, but also gives you the opportunity to teach classes to the group so you are a professional at the end of it. Plus, she keeps it to a small group so the training is very individualized to your needs. I would highly recommend it:)” Jacinthe Mitchell
“I rarely write any reviews for anything, but I really want to share my experience in this wonderful training program. This is truly a life-changing class. Brynn is incredibly resourceful, supportive, and kind. She is the best yoga instructor/mentor I've ever met in my life. I attended the 200hr yoga training program with intimate class size, a family-like environment, and supportive and kind classmates. This program is not only involved with physical training but also spiritual and mindfulness practices. Her class leads you to think on a deeper level, to be true to your heart and get you ready for your spiritual path. She is so approachable and all her feedbacks are thorough and sincere. After this training, I feel so confident to become a yoga instructor. Words cannot express how grateful I am to Brynn and this wonderful journey. I highly recommend her training program.” - Nikki Yang
"Brynn's Teacher Training Program is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere is extremely welcoming and comfortable. Brynn's knowledge of all things yoga is truly admirable. She is great with questions, teaching, poses, sequencing, and the overall attitude of a great yoga instructor. She really makes everyone feel excited to get to class and bummed to leave. I know that from this I have seen several positive changes both in my practice and day to day life, and feel qualified to teach a class." - Kelsey B.
"It is hard to put such a personal and transformational journey into words. I had never taken a class with Brynn before starting her teacher training. It was a leap of faith. But after reading other reviews and speaking with someone who had taken the training, I knew I was on the right path. I could feel it in my bones. As it turned out, I could not have picked a better program! The training I received at True Flow Yoga completely exceeded my expectations, which is no easy task! It was the perfect fusion of educational, spiritual and purposeful instruction. Brynn guides with precision and laughter, without ever making you feel self conscious. She is quite relatable even though she is a very advanced yogini. She is able to gain your respect as a teacher, but her warmth and lack of judgment make you feel like you are in the company of a friend. I believe Brynn to be an old soul that is as authentic, knowledgable and passionate about yoga as anyone I've ever studied under. She truly has a gift and a commanding, yet gentle, presence as a teacher. To know her is to love her. She is an absolute light in this world. I was also fortunate to share the space with a beautiful group of like minded teacher trainees that I hope will be lifelong friends. At a minimum, you will deepen your asana practice and learn teaching techniques. But, if you are open to it, you will learn something much greater that will apply on and off your mat for a very long time to come. I could not have asked for more from a 200 hour TT program or the guidance I received. I feel privileged to have taken part in such a thorough and far-reaching experience. Without a doubt, I am forever changed, forever grateful." Jessica L.
"Absolutely, positively, unquestionably, the most phenomenal experience I have been blessed enough to take part in!" - Brittany A.
"Brynn is not only well-versed in the practice and philosophy of yoga but also has a natural gift in being able to lead and guide, while bringing out the best in people. This is what makes True Flow Yoga Teacher Training so amazing. Brynn is a warm and thoughtful perfectionist, and I mean "perfectionist" in the best possible way! The entire program is really well thought out and paced just right, easing you into the program gently as you arrive with "first-day jitters". Before you know it, you're halfway through and 100 asanas into the program! I loved how everyone in our class progressed in their personal practice, wherever it was that they started. I know I felt much stronger physically and richer emotionally by the end of the program. And now teaching others is a natural desire that I feel ready to do. I can't wait for workshops and retreats with Brynn in the future! I am so glad I signed up for True Flow Yoga Teacher Training and here are the reasons why: A teacher training program is only as good as its teacher and Brynn is by far the best I've experienced. Smaller class size allows a lot of personal interaction and a deeper experience. You learn yoga poses the right way, correcting and modifying poses in yourself and your classmates for proper alignment. You go beyond poses and are exposed to the philosophy of yoga and how it can apply to you. You get solid practice developing sequences and teaching full sessions before the program is over, unlike some larger class programs where you barely practice teaching a full session. The learning environment is productive, down-to-earth, and encouraging. I have nothing but great things to say about Brynn and True Flow Yoga Teacher Training...highly recommended!" - Jeanne L.
