Business ProfileforSouthern Soul Yoga

I began my yoga teacher training at Southern Soul Yoga earlier this March 2024 on Friday night. The owner Jenna W***** spent much time going over expectations. One of which was no late arrivals and no absences. I let her and her trainees coordinator know I have clinical anxiety and depression and it was the main reason why I was taking up this training to help with the symptoms and energy. I told them that first night that the most heads-up I could give to being late or missing training was the morning of depending on how I was feeling. The coordinator said that was fine. In the early morning of the next training day, I let the coordinator know I was not coming in due to not feeling well. She did not reply back. 3 days later I received an email dismissing me from the training program due to my absence. When I pursued answers as to why they could not accommodate my absence since it was medical and the program offered 75 extra hours to account for any missed hours, they stated they had their own rules and boundaries set for how they wanted their program to run and that it was not the place for me and wouldn't of let me begin the program had they known of my anxiety and depression in the first place. No comment on the extra hours in place to give students flexibility. No comment on refunding me. No guidance as to other programs in the area. 2 stars because prior to being dismissed from the program I went in for a regular yoga class. Clean place, that particular instructor was kind. Would not recommend the yoga teacher training or expect understanding or flexibility from owner.
