I did the 200 hrs yoga training in February in Tulum and it was a life changing experience. I was looking to do a YTT for a while and when I found this one I didn't think twice. The aligned flow method that Richelle has created was exactly what I was looking for as a yoga student and also what I wanted to share as a teacher. The program structure was really on point, we reviewed everything from yoga philosophy, anatomy of the body, all the asanas and the variations , transitions and also really clear cues that make teaching a class way easier. It was amazing the way richelle and dee acompannied us through all the program. Personally this training has been one of the most challenging things I've done because im never done anything like it, being able to hold space In such a beautiful way and create this trust environment In a yoga class is one of the best feelings in the world. Richelle and Dee really are really aware of our own independent learning curve and they accompany us in every step of the way . I would recommend this experience to anybody interested in learning more about themselves, the body , the spiritual side of yoga and also in a self confidence building experience. Thank you for everything amazing woman ! so grateful to have met you on my path

The YYT offered at Yoga Dicha is the gold standard of yoga teacher trainings. If you are interested in learning how to teach yoga or expand your personal practice this is the course to take. The instructors (Richelle & Dee) really emphasize the importance of proper alignment, clear cueing and inclusivity. You will graduate the course with way more than just being able to call out yoga poses in Sanskrit. You will leave with the knowledge and confidence to teach and a strong, beautiful community to support you on your journey. Taking this course was one of the best decisions of my life.

Richelle, Dee & Adry were wonderful instructors for my first-ever Yoga Teacher Training. The Aligned Flow Method (which I stumbled into by total accident— I just wanted to do my training in Tulum!!!) wound up being such a great way of learning about yoga & how it relates to our individual bodies & experiences. The class created a lovely community vibe for all us students, there were puppies(!), the studio was a gorgeous space and we got to make malas! You learn a whole lot in a short amount of time— which can feel intense— but Richelle et al take the time to answer all your questions (I had a million & they were very patient with me) and give you a great foundation for how to actually teach postures, the business of yoga, adjustments, everything. I felt truly supported by the whole instructor team & feel very fortunate to have chosen this YTT for myself!

I completed my own YTT with Richelle at Tulum Yoga School five years ago; an experience I’ve always remembered as one of the best months I’ve had. Returning this past month, this time in the capacity of an assistant to Richelle, was rewarding in ways I couldn’t have imagined. After several years of both practicing and teaching yoga, it was super refreshing to return to my training roots and a style of yoga that focuses on inclusion, individual bodies and creating holistic experiences. Witnessing Richelle’s expertise from the other side of things was hugely helpful and informative for me and my own path as a future YTT leader for The Aligned Elements brand. Her ability to hold space for the group of students as a whole, identify and address individual needs, and share her own experiences and learnings - which are extensive - in a relatable way are key components of mentoring and leading. I also appreciated the specific and detailed feedback she offered me, as well as the way she made herself available to me both inside and outside of the studio. If I was excited about the opportunity to be a part of the YTT teaching team before, I now also feel empowered, prepared and supported to step into this role.

If I could give more than 5, I would! My experience with Tulum Yoga School will forever be one of the most cherished and “worth it” experiences / choices of my life. I’ve been through a few teacher trainings now, and I can easily say that this one filled my soul and changed my teaching in such a wonderful way. Richelle has crafted an intentional, comprehensive, and accessible program that allows you to be curious, ask questions, dive deeper, and find your own voice. While it is challenging to learn so much in a span of just a few weeks, she continues to encourage and support her students in a way that calms any doubts and reinforces that you absolutely chose the right place and people to support your teaching and learning journey. Every day is carefully planned to continue giving students a chance to learn, apply, and reflect. From the very beginning to the end, Richelle and Dee, who supports the YTT experience with an ever-present smile, make you feel welcome, supported, heard, and valuable; they truly establish a community and their joy is tangible and contagious. I admire and respect them both beyond words; even more, I trust them and know that they will remain mentors even though several time zones now separate us. Choosing a yoga teacher training (or immersion learning if you are not sure yet about teaching) is a big decision and one that you should carefully consider before committing. I fully and confidently recommend Tulum Yoga School. When the program ended, I found myself a little bittersweet — I was so happy to have finished, but also longing for more time with them. It’s such an incredible experience and I will be forever grateful for it and them.

My experience at Tulum Yoga School was more then I had imagined. The moment you walk into the studio Richelle and Dee you in like family. Richelle and Dee take away the stress from walking into a new environment and immediately make you feel like you are home. The days are filled with hard work, good knowledge, laughter, and puppies. It’s doesn’t get much better.

I completed my 200hr yoga teacher training with Richelle at Tulum yoga school and loved every minute of it! Not only is the studio a beautiful place to practice but Richelle, Adry and Kristy are great teachers. The course gave me an in depth understanding of yoga and how every body is individual, giving me the confidence to be able to teach in an inclusive way. The course has an emphasis on setting up the foundation of postures and how to create flowing sequences which is why I think it is perfect for someone just starting out as a teacher like myself or someone wanting to gain more confidence in this area. Highly recommend!

I did my 300 hour yoga teacher training at the Tulum Yoga School and overall it was a good experience. Richelle is very kind, warm, welcoming, knowledgeable and has her own spin on yoga and what it means to practice (and live) in alignment. I learned a lot from her and the other instructors. I really appreciate that the course focus on inclusivity and learning to teach yoga to all people with all different body types. If you're into cute puppies, you will especially love taking a course at the Tulum Yoga School! :)

It was truly a life-changing experience, Richelle and Dee are amazing teachers, very supportive and helpful, and they took the time to respond to all the questions I had. The course itself is amazing, in a short amount of time you learn a very inclusive way of teaching yoga to all kinds of people. It is very hands-on, so since the first week, you start practicing with your fellow teacher students about the poses. The yoga shala in Tulum is very beautiful, you feel like you are practicing in the jungle, which makes the experience even better, I would recommend this course to anyone who is interested in learning more in-depth about yoga, either for teaching or for personal purposes, and in whichever level they are at. I am very grateful for this experience, I loved every minute of it, especially our graduation class with rescue puppies 💕🐶. I am looking forward to doing the 300hr YTT in the future with Tulum Yoga School.

Words can’t explain my gratitude for this yoga program. Richelle, Dee, and Adry are masters at what they teach and provided the BEST experience! I signed up for the training for personal transformation and not certain if I was going to teach after, but they inspired me so much that I want to teach now! They provided a very strong foundation to begin teaching and what I love most is how the Aligned Flow Method truly is inclusive, accessible, and authentic! You learn how yoga is for every body and how to teach it to every body. I walked away with confidence and embodying my authentic self! I can’t recommend Tulum Yoga School enough!
