Here’s what Nikki Rodriguez, owner of Restorative Wellness in Vero Beach, had to say:
"Working with Troy has been an absolute game-changer in creating our yoga teacher training program. His depth of knowledge is unparalleled—I've yet to see anyone stump him with a question about yoga! Beyond his expertise in the practice itself, Troy brings the invaluable experience of having been a studio owner. His firsthand knowledge of the challenges and intricacies of running a studio has been an incredible asset."
