Releasing past traumas, and fear-based beliefs so that you are able to step forward into the light and allow yourself to shine to your fullest potential.

This teacher training course is a combination of years of experience through obstacles, challenges, and hardships backed by creation, exploration, and self-progression.

This yoga training is perfect for new students looking to refine and deepen their practice as well as for certified teachers who have already completed a 200-hour or 500-hour teacher training and are desiring to move their teaching skillset beyond the scope of asana and into the more transformative practices of the ancient and incredible science of yoga.

On the other hand, this is an all-level training. If you are brand new to yoga this training is a beautiful foundational platform for you to begin to develop your practice as a practitioner and as a teacher.

This training will allow you to let go of disempowering beliefs, fear-based reactivity, ineffective communication, and unhealthy habits with your daily Sadhana (daily practice). In addition to yogic philosophy, creative sequencing, yogi history, and the science of anatomy this training will dive into the human relationship.

If you are in a relationship or wanting to be in one, this course will teach how to navigate the realm of relationships, so they become your greatest teacher. Not through separation or conflict, but rather through self-responsibility, opening to pleasure, and knowing your worth, so that a partnership with a beloved becomes a joyful source of awakening, expansion, passion, and pleasure.
