Hopkinton's Lesley Reilly recently became one of less than 100 yoga teachers nationally to earn the RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher) 500 certification, a Registered Yoga Teacher milestone from the Yoga Alliance, representing 500 hours of certified training.

Reilly is the owner of bCalm Power Yoga in Hopkinton, MA, a Baptiste affiliate studio. Yoga Alliance is the national education and support organization for yoga in the United States. Formed in 1999, it provides standards for yoga teachers and is recognized as a premier designation of certification for yoga teachers. The Yoga Alliance 500 hour standards incorporate technique training, teaching methods, anatomy and physiology study, yoga philosophy and ethics, as well as hands on teaching and observation.

With the 500 hours under her belt, Lesley's enthusiasm about her yoga practice and continuing education is clear.

"I am committed to providing our community with the highest standard of Power Vinyasa yoga. With each hour of training, not only does my own practice deepen, but I feel truly fortunate to pass along that experience to people in the community as well."
