Teacher Training Staff

Led By Adesina Cash RYT-500 Hour, Gaby Cardoza and Nichol Chase RYT-500 Hour, The Hot Spot Yoga Oakland Teacher Training Program is also enriched by these amazing and talented educators:

Completing the 200 hour teacher training program at Hot Spot Yoga with Adesina was one of the most fulfilling endeavors Iโ€™ve ever undertaken! I expected to learn about the asanas/ poses but I was blown away by the depth and breadth of knowledge Adesina has and felt humbled to learn alongside the incredible yogis I met within the program. She is authentic in her practice and her joy is so palpable that it was impossible not to feel inspired, encouraged, and engaged with every lesson. I also appreciated the guest teachers who offered a glimpse into the possible fields of specialization and broadened our awareness of what it could mean to teach yoga. I would highly recommend this teacher training program to anyone who is interested in understanding the joy that yoga practice brings to oneโ€™s life and beyond!

Teacher Training was the most fulfilling and life changing experience that came at the right time for me! If you are looking to learn more about yoga philosophy, deepen your asana practice and explore different types of yoga all while building community, this is the training for you! The texts, discussion and lecture, and confidence-building practice teaching will leave you feeling inspired and ready to integrate yoga in all aspects of your life. So much love to Adesina and the Hot Spot crew - this is a studio of passionate and energetic people who bring fun and joy into every class! - Madinah
