Cleo Post, Owner & Director, E-RYT 500, B.A. Yoga
Cleo has been teaching yoga for 11 years and practicing yoga for 13 years, starting at an instructors house in the magical woods. The connection with the birds, the beautiful stream trickling outside, the breath, and the yoga poses expanded her awareness and consciousness. Her love for yoga blossomed and brought her to complete her 200hr yoga teacher training from Kripalu in 2011 and later to Naropa University (A Shambhala Buddhist Univeristy) where she received her 1000hr yoga teacher training and B.A. in Yoga in December 2013. The immersive and comprehensive yoga program at Naropa enabled her to dive deeply into the ancient yogic texts, the practice of asana, the study of Sanskrit, yoga nidra, and much more. Cleo has studied under many amazing teachers, and has gained insight through experimenting with different yoga styles, which ultimately enabled her to find her own distinct teaching method and flow. Cleo opened Rainbow Body Yoga in 2014 and is beyond blissful to offer and share the joy, peace, happiness, love, calmness, serenity, and awakening that yoga brings to all that come to practice. Her intention is to awaken beings to their true nature, an infinite array of colors beyond colors, activating the Rainbow Body, and remembering the true light within.

Jacob Friedman, RYT 200
For Jacob, unconditional love is the goal, and yoga is the path. His classes provide a non-judgmental environment that is supportive and welcoming to all. He guides you safely through practices designed to cultivate introspection and physical development, to challenge and heal, and to inspire observation of and connection with every part of your self. By mindfully turning inward and working to uncover your own inner light, you will leave class feeling empowered and open to a deeper love and compassion everywhere in your life.
Jacob's classes are based in the Kripalu tradition: student-focused, accessible to every body, a balance of effort and ease, with bits of yogic philosophy and playfulness thrown in for good measure. Jacob is deeply inspired by his teachers at Kripalu, where he trained under Kari Harendorf and Yoganand Michael Carroll. He feels immense gratitude for the all teachers in his life: yoga teachers; school teachers; friends; perhaps wisest of all, his dog Maya; but most especially he is grateful for his parents, for their endless love and support. He remains an eternal student.
When not practicing yoga, Jacob may be found wandering in music, playing philosophy, stir-frying a forest or reading vegetables.

Testimonials
“Yoga Teacher Training at Rainbow Body Yoga was a life changing experience. I learned how to heal through Yoga & various energy healing modalities, how to put together a class, and how to effectively cue poses. This training fused together Yoga and all kinds of magic that allowed me to see the world from a different perspective. I made amazing friends and truly enjoyed spending every weekend spent in the teacher training. Additionally, Cleo helped me to figure out my "why" behind teaching, identifying my goals and seeing how they changed as training progressed. I graduated YTT feeling very certain on my path AND already had classes lined up to start teaching upon graduation! I will always be grateful for the magical way I was able to find & complete this yoga teacher training at Rainbow Body Yoga and the way it has impacted my life." - Chloe
"Cleo Post & Rainbow Body 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Intensive far exceeded any expectations I might have had or hoped for. It was one of the single best decisions I've made as she was the most wonderful teacher and perfect example of a Yogi." - Loretta
"I have been wanting to complete yoga teacher training for a few years. I'm so happy that I found Cleo at Rainbow Body Yoga! She provided a transformational journey during our yoga teacher training that was packed full of learning and teaching opportunities. If you're looking for the complete package when it comes to your yoga teacher training - Rainbow Body Yoga is a must!" - Jenna
"My 200 hr YTT with Cleo was the best decision I've made in my 11+ year history as a fitness instructor and lover of yoga. The immersive training prepared me to teach yoga that is true to form and tradition, but also taught me how to embrace my own unique style of teaching. Since my training, I've led so many successful yoga classes, yoga combo classes, special workshops, and guided meditations. Cleo's training gave me the confidence to not only teach yoga, but also to confidently get out into the world and share my gifts. Her whole self approach really cracked me wide open and allowed me to discover interests in so many healing modalities in addition to yoga, and I am so grateful to have had such a thorough training that went so far beyond the asana practice of yoga and deep into the philosophy as well. In all honesty, she enlightened me." - Allison S
"Since the yoga retreat my life has changed so much for the better. I feel so empowered and inspired to spread knowledge and wisdom to others. Getting certified in yoga has improved my life and helped me to lead a happy, healthy life, loving what I do and guiding others on their own path to self love and healing." - Carmela
"YTT with Rainbow Body Yoga was truly a life transforming experience. I cannot recommend this program enough. I learned all that I sought after and I discovered things about myself I didn't even know I needed to find." - Kristina
“My gut told me to participate in Cleo’s immersive YTT retreat and I am so very glad I listened. I felt supported and safe to be my self from the moment I arrived. I also enjoyed the lessons on other healing modalities (e.g., tarot, herbalism, and ayurveda) that Cleo included in our syllabus. This illustrated the idea that while yoga is a powerful practice, it is even more beneficial when a part of a multifaceted holisitic healing routine. Cleo’s training empowered me to embrace my gifts, find/use my voice, and honor the calling I feel to help others heal and I am forever grateful for that. But most of all, I am grateful for the connections I made as I keep in touch with many of the beautiful beings I met and they continue to inspire me well beyond the training!” - Laura
"Loved the class so much! Great teachers and curriculum." - Allison R
"The Rainbow Body Yoga teacher training program was an immersive and enlightening experience. The program focused on the balance of body, mind, and spirit. Cleo is an experienced, knowledgeable, and exemplary teacher. Her calm energy and patient approach allow the student to feel comfortable with the learning process. I was able to gain the skills I wanted to acquire and apply them effectively in my life and my work." - Conny
