"OUTSTANDING! As a former Marine, A yoga teacher, and founder and excutive of Semper Fit, it is important to me to spend my time and training wisely and to be at the top of the spear for Veterans Health and Wellness, Yoga Warriors fulfilled that mission in ALL categories!

"This was a great program. The program was very well thought out and prepared the teachers looking to get certification in the Yoga Warriors program. Research and analysis was excellent and the weekend session is very thorough, prepared and explained . The take home material is great.

Lucy and Lynn have a passion that is very apparent for this program and it is an honor to be part of the program." - Mary F.

Both Lucy and Lynn have a great understanding and sensitively to working with people with PTSD and training others to teach veterans." - E. Bradley
