Becoming a yoga teacher is far from just learning poses, it's about:
nurturing yourself
at the deepest level.
When you move from doubt to certainty,
from anxiousness to ease,
from "not enough" to wholeness...
—
something extraordinary happens.
These 4 weeks will support you in uncovering limiting beliefs, in creating game-changer, powerful habits in yoga & meditation & breath work & in becoming
the most fully expressed, authentic & fully alive version of yourself.
That energy is so contagious for every area of your life, personally, professionally & with all you desire to create in your life.
"This training jumpstarted a much needed and long time coming wellness journey for me. I am so proud of myself for taking this leap of faith. I now am actually living my yoga in far more profound ways, & I feel so much more light, joyous, and at peace. The whole experience is so freeing and truly life changing." -
Katie, Winter 2025 Graduate

Our next live, 4 week training is:
Monday, October 6th - Sunday, November 2nd
Every Monday - Thursday
→ 6:00 am – 7:30 am EST
Wake up and pop open your computer. Together, we’ll do powerful breathwork, meditate, journal, get clear on our intentions for the day & do yoga in an uplifting environment. We’ll close our computers at 7:30 am so you can get on with your regular schedule.
Every Monday - Thursday
→ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm EST
We’ll hop back on for another live session to deepen our learnings from the course, learn the science, expand on the yoga teachings & practice restorative yoga. (For the very most part.) We’ll also connect & share before hopping off for a night of blissful sleep. (Restorative yoga at night is so good for this!)
We'll be together - in person - every weekend:
Every Saturday → 12pm-4pm EST
Every Sunday →
9:00am – 3:30pm EST
We will be in person at both our Chapel Hill and our (new!) Charlotte studios.
(These in person sessions will also be available live via Zoom, but we strongly encourage you to join us in person.)
Testimonials & Verified Reviews
Our morning rituals create the best start to my days and I intend on continuing this practice going forward. Throughout the day, I have found myself to be less anxious, more focused and grounded, and more in tune with my own body and feelings which permeates the interactions I have with others and myself in a more positive way."
Carrie, Jan 2024 Graduate
I don't feel like I am the same person at the end of the training that I was at the beginning; I feel more confident, courageous, and strong on the inside and out. This training was a four week intensive in discovering myself more deeply and learning how to share myself with others in the safest and most welcoming community.

Expect To Deep Dive Into:
Yoga Sequencing
In Yoga Teacher Training, we’ll bring you out of the "theory" phase & into the true practicing phase so can feel how to confidently practice on your own, or in sharing your love of yoga with others.
You'll naturally grow to share your unique voice & authenticity in new ways.
Breathwork
The way all of us breathe unknowingly is harmful to our physical, emotional, & mental health.
It creates more stress & anxiety.
We’ll flip this switch during our four weeks together & you will physiologically change your body, your energy & how you feel physically.
Meditation
We’ll dive deep into all the incredible, modern science of meditation & the most impactful part?? We’ll meditate together every day.
Even if you think you can’t do it or it’s not your thing, you’ll discover - for real - how this one (very short & simple practice) will be a must for you moving forward in your life.
Sharing Yourself
The way we make a difference is when we share our genuine & authentic selves.
You'll discover how to confidently lead a group of people in a way that deeply connects & “lands” with them. This skill set will serve you well beyond the mat, in many other facets of your life.
Yoga Assists
Assists in yoga are such a gift & offer so much care, compassion, stability & extension.
A yoga assist can often foster transformation in ways that a verbal assist cannot. You'll feel confident in offering these in your classes or for yourself.
The Business Of Yoga
You won’t just graduate from our training & hope for the best.
Feel Better Yoga has an after-RYT mentorship program, designed to support you in getting on team at our studios, if that is your desire.
Additionally, you will get all the inside info on creating a yoga career, & even how to create & build your own yoga studios.
And More
From yoga anatomy and alignment,
to Chakras, to Yamas & Niyamas …
There's so much more that’s woven into our Yoga Teacher Training.
Testimonials & Verified Reviews
The AM meditation was fantastic. I think meditation can be a really daunting thing and in the past, I only ever did it when I was stressed out/not doing emotionally well. Putting this into consistent practice made me feel so accomplished and peaceful as I moved throughout my days. Same with the daily practice -- I gained an energy I didn't even know I had! (literally, I was concerned I had a sleep disorder because of how chronically tired I was before this training.)
- Lindy, Jan 2024 Graduate
Oh I was dreading partnering. DREADING. I hate not living up to someone's expectations or disappointing them so I was hating the thought of this but I LOVED IT!!!! I felt very connected with all of my partners and got to know them well quickly. Something about this training makes everyone so open and raw that the connections are so quick and easy and flowy. I will not let go of these people!!

Meet Your Lead Teachers
Shelley Roupas & Heather Kasey
Hey, I’m Shelley Roupas. (On The Right)
I am a mom & bonus mom of 4 fellas (21-24 years old,) married to Todd (the fun to my serious,) founder of Feel Better Yoga, an RYT500, a Tier 1 Certified Baptiste Teacher & Lululemon Ambassador.
I completely love what I get to do every day!
I created Feel Better Yoga in Sept 2016, and still feel so in love with the fact that I get to do this! I fully believe, "what you give, you get," & getting to be a part of other people's transformative journeys is such an incredible honor.
I created Feel Better Yoga in my late 40's, during the most painful, scary time in my life. I was in broadcasting during that time, loved that, too, but yoga helped me see my life differently, in such a helpful way, that I felt I had to share it with other people, "come what may!" (Even though I could talk to a TV camera all day long with no problem, sharing in front of "real eyeballs" terrified me.) I am so glad I took that chance.
Hey, I’m Heather Kasey. (On The Left)
Director of Feel Better Yoga Teacher Training, An RYT500 with advanced training in anatomy, restorative yoga, yoga & emotions, and more.
I’ve been a full-time yoga teacher since 2012. My teachers include Dice Iida-Klein, Rusty Wells, Tiffany Cruikshank, and all of my students. When I’m not doing yoga, you can probably find me with my darling dog Reese or saving elephants through my non-profit, ELEI (Elephant Livelihood Initiative Environment).
My Feel Better Yoga students say they love my natural, calm, knowledgeable way of sharing advanced yoga with lightness, ease, and FUN. My goal is to make you feel seen, and connected, and know that you ARE ENOUGH EXACTLY AS YOU ARE.

Testimonials & Verified Reviews
"It was such a healing and self-loving journey. And you walk away with all the tools to be a great yoga teacher way beyond knowing how to call a sequence or pose, to powerfully share yoga through vulnerability. It's such an incredible experience for challenging yourself, expanding your horizons, and letting go of self-limiting beliefs.
