I was blessed with the opportunity to be part of the inaugural group of the GetWild 200 HR Yoga Teacher Training. It was the experience of a lifetime and one that has forever changed me! My goal was to learn how to teach to varied audiences and I walked away not only comfortable in my role as a teacher, but I learned about the philosophy of yoga, anatomy & physiology, mythology, communication, musical playlists, hands on assist, intelligent sequencing, and theming. Yet this was just the beginning! Kelsey has this amazing ability to teach in a way that engages the learner and to knit communities of people together all along the way. This started during our first introductory session and then built during every call from there … with the culmination of the training at a beautiful, remote retreat center in Northern Nicaragua. WOW … Nicaragua … REALLY? Yes, and it was beyond a fabulous experience. From meeting in the airport, to the drive, to the intimate setting, it was all perfect. We came together with a common goal, to support each other, as we uniquely stepped into our own space to offer ourselves. It didn’t matter where we started, it only mattered that we had come together in growth, in support, in learning, in partnership with open hearts.

Would I do it again? Would I recommend this approach to others interested? Absolutely. Not only will you walk away in your own confidence as a teacher, but you’ll also walk away with bonds, connections, and community that support you unconditionally on your own journey (not to mention the amazing experience of being in a unique country with these people you’ve grown & learned together with).

I have never met another human being more committed to excellence in her profession or her personal passion. Caroline’s talk is her walk. She is humble in a way that is almost disarming. In her presence, I step into a place of honesty and self-exploration that is inspired purely by the example she lives and breathes. Her listening skills are impeccable. That may be one of the most valuable things she has taught me simply by demonstrating. Silence can be far more powerful than any word in the English language. She is wickedly intelligent and has spent the better part of the last 2 years putting in 14 hour days reading every article, book, and reference she could get her hands on. This shines through while she teaches. Her understanding of the human body is evident every time she lays her hands on a student in a posture. Just like her, her assists are gentle and strong. She is intuitive and she knows the body inside and out because she spends about 3 hours a day on her own mat. She "dorks out" on the dry stuff and makes it come to life.  Her knowledge of the sutras, the anatomy, the sequencing, and the practice are stunning.  What amazes me the most is her ability to read the room and let go of her "plan” - even if it is painstakingly prepared.  Her willingness to let the experience be tailored to the unique and changing needs of each human being in the room is sheer joy for me to watch.

Doing my 300-hour training with Caroline one-on-one has made me a wiser teacher.  She taught me to think on my own, to inquire, to research, and to want more knowledge.  I am amazed at how this learning experience created a foundation of confidence in me. I have stepped into my own sunshine by letting go of old ways that didn't work. I am a stronger student as a result of this experience and I have grown as a human being in ways I've yet to define. I cannot find words for how profound this learning adventure was.

To my teacher, thank-you for opening my eyes to the world I live in and taking me along for the journey of a lifetime.  As you head to Maine, know that you leave behind a community who is changed by your grace. I hope you will carry us with you in your heart. May you find the peace and love you so readily dispense to all of those who are lucky enough to have been your student and inevitably, your friend. 

A few months ago I completed my teacher training with Kelsey Harrison and genuinely can say that it was a life changing experience. Kelsey is one of the most inspirational people I have ever met. She is also empowering, hard-working, and an amazing teacher! Teaching is difficult, and Kelsey makes it look easy. She was able to share her passion for yoga with all of us in training. I signed up to learn more about the asanas, or poses, but learned so much more. She embodies the philosophies of yoga in many ways, creating a powerful teaching technique of leading by example! We also were led by Kelsey to a yoga retreat in Nicaragua! It was an unforgettable experience - filled with so much yoga, adventures, laughs, and learning. I highly recommend taking this training even if you are not planning on teaching yoga. It is something I will always carry with me.

The yoga teacher who most inspires me lives her yoga in her life as well as on her mat and in front of her class.  She is constantly studying her books, her students and herself, to deepen her knowledge.  She is continually learning and sharing her discoveries and creations.

This teacher has an uncanny listening ability.  She is so present that she clearly hears and remembers what her students say.  She is able to respond in a way that is precise, from the heart, and without waiver.  It is fascinating to watch and blows me away every time.  This woman is gifted in so many ways.

Her yoga classes are challenging, original, fun and informative.  They are classes that fill you up and leave you inspired to continue practicing, learning, and growing.

The voice of this yoga teacher is kind but direct.  She is supportive, encouraging and loves drawing people together.  It is no surprise that she is so well-loved and respected in her life and in her career as a yoga teacher.

She inspires me to be my best self and to practice yoga seriously and spiritually.  She is humble and compassionate with no trace of ego in her yoga practice or in her teaching.  She is clear and strong and full of love.  She is authentic, kind, truthful and hard working.

You are a beautiful soul, Caroline, and my most inspiring yoga teacher.

Kelsey Harrison and Get Wild Yoga have simply changed my life. 10/10 program. The content was thorough and all encompassing. The instructor was so knowledgeable that she had the ability to be adaptable. If we demonstrated an interest in something that wasn't necessarily covered in the original manual, she was able to accommodate the curriculum and provide outside tools and resources for further education. I can honestly say that I thoroughly enjoyed the final exam because I was shocked by how much I had learned in just sixteen weeks. Lastly, this program far exceeded a comprehensive education. The instructor (Kelsey) facilitated and inspired the most beautiful and encouraging sense of community that I have ever been lucky enough to experience. Between the vulnerability, the laughter, the tears, the unconditional support, and unwavering demonstration of love, I genuinely think of Kelsey and my Get Wild Yoga YTT 200 peers as a part of my family. I admire each and every one of them for different reasons, and I have learned so much from all of them. Kelsey has truly become my role model. She is a gift and a treasure, and I can NOT recommend the Get Wild Program enough. I am overwhelmed with love and gratitude. I am so grateful for this opportunity and for the knowledge and kindness Kelsey has shared with us. Kelsey has a gift and she makes this Earth a better play by choosing to share this gift with others. I feel that I have been set up for success as I embark on the next steps of my yogic journey. I cannot wait to continue learning and sharing these experiences, and I am so excited to share these gifts with my future students.

To talk about Caroline's life and teaching would be to imply that they are two separate entities, but I have experienced first-hand the reality that her life-work is one force. And what a force it is! I have not come across another teacher who lives and demonstrates so wholeheartedly each of the principles that they teach. To experience yoga with Caroline is to gain a deeper understanding of one's self, while developing true strength on every level. Her approach calls to mind a phrase from the poet Mary Oliver, "patience comes to the bones before it takes root in the heart.", inspiring me to initiate discipline from my core and see how that effort manifests in every avenue of my existence. (Notably these manifestations have centered around love and sincerity.) She reminds me that whatever I discover through my practice is a reflection of this life and my own relationship to it. 

I am so grateful to Caroline, to her work and ceaseless dedication to her practice. For the community that surrounds this luminous woman, she has created classes that provide a beautiful balance of challenges and fun. In her warm, loving and encouraging environment, we are all free to deeply enjoy yoga, to learn what we are capable of, to learn from each other and to laugh with abandon while we're at it. What a privilege to be able to share that journey

Enrolling in the 200-hour yoga teacher training program with Kelsey through Get Wild Retreats was one of the most transformative experiences of my life. The program exceeded all my expectations, offering not only a comprehensive curriculum but also a supportive and inspiring community.

Kelsey is deeply knowledgeable and approachable, sharing her expertise in anatomy, philosophy, and asana practice with clarity and passion. Each session felt thoughtfully planned, balancing physical practice, meditation, and theoretical study, leaving me with a solid foundation to start my teaching journey confidently.

What truly stood out was the emphasis on personal growth. The training challenged me to explore my inner self, develop discipline, and cultivate mindfulness both on and off the mat. The small class size fostered meaningful connections, and I felt seen and supported every step of the way.

This program didn’t just prepare me to teach—it deepened my love for yoga and gave me tools to live more authentically. I am so grateful for this incredible journey and would highly recommend it to anyone ready to take their practice and understanding to the next level.

Added bonus was a one week retreat in beautiful Panama where we all got to be together in person after training virtually for 16 weeks, 3 days a week. Each student showcased their class & were able to continue our support for one another. This week in person together was yet another transformative experience that brought the whole process together.

Get Wild Yoga’s teacher training offers an incredible environment for teacher trainees. I can’t fully express how much I enjoyed the entire experience. From beginning to end, I felt completely supported, and Kelsey continues to offer mentorship even after the program is over. The training also surrounds you with a wonderful community of teachers to learn and grow with, which made the journey even more meaningful! Training with Get Wild Yoga was one of the best decisions I ever made, and I wish I could do it all over again!!!

My teacher training experience with Kelsey through Get Wild was absolutely one of the best things I have ever done. Meeting 3 times a week and connecting virtually with the my fellow trainees was so powerful and always the highlight of my week. I loved the virtual aspect was our group was from all over the country which made it even more exciting! We learned so much, became more confident and grounded, made life long connections and stepped into our power. I am so proud to have completed the course and am so proud of my fellow teachers! The Panama retreat to cap off our training was one of my favorite weeks ever! We practiced in stunning Boca Chica, Panama and had the most amazing stay that was thoughtfully curated. Kelsey led us so beautifully and was an unwavering support system. I am so thankful to have done this and can't wait to see where it takes me!

If you're even considering signing up for yoga teacher training, take the leap—especially with Get Wild Retreats. This experience was nothing short of extraordinary, a treasured gift that will stay with me forever. I had the opportunity to learn, grow, and connect deeply alongside nine strong, beautiful women, all led by the inspiring Kelsey. She guided us brilliantly, preparing us to be the best teachers possible, while creating a safe, supportive environment for us to practice, stumble, and rise again. We ended our journey with an unforgettable retreat in Panama, celebrating 16 weeks of dedication and hard work. I’m endlessly grateful for this experience, these people, and the memories I’ll cherish always.

Signing up for and completing the Get Wild 200 hour teacher training was the greatest investment I made in myself last year. I felt very supported throughout training by my leaders and by my cohorts who become like family as you share so much of your life over the course of training. We covered so many areas in yoga from philosophy, to asanas and posture alignment, and physiology. Throughout training I noticed how I was deepening my practice with yoga and applying what we were learning as I continued taking yoga classes. The cherry on top was getting to travel to Nicaragua for our week long retreat where we taught our practicum sequences and earned our 200 hour certificates! It was the perfect way to end our four months of training.

Now, months after our training has ended, I still keep up with my fellow trainees and continue to deepen my practice as a yoga teacher. I come back to my tools learned in training on a daily basis. I am so grateful I took the leap and signed up for my 200 hour training with Get Wild Retreats. This training is for anyone at any point in their yoga practice who wants to learn more about yoga and themselves and how to integrate yoga for daily life.
