Awaken your unique voice + impact as a leader. This program is designed to take you from ‘Yoga Teacher’ into Embodied Yoga Teacher, Leader and Facilitator. 

You have a unique gift, voice and offering living within you that the worlds needs. Throughout this journey we will dive into many layers within the SELF to shed limiting beliefs, patterns, habits and stories that keep you playing small in your life.

AWAKEN who you are meant to be through yogic philosophy, conscious reprogramming, shadow work, emotional alchemy, breathwork and an exploration into the subtle body.

Deepen your understanding of Living Yoga through the Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, the four paths of yoga, kleshas, elements of yoga and how you can relate this to your life today while living in a modern world.

 

ELEVATE

ELEVATE your skills + knowledge as a yoga teacher. This training is very hands-on, experiential and will help fill in any gaps as a teacher to launch you further onto your path.

ELEVATE your teaching skills in leading Vinyasa Flow, uplevel your sequencing methods, deepen your understanding of Sanskrit, refine your communication, language and verbal cues, learn how to create transformative Dharma talks, learn how to intentionally weave Yogic Philosophy into your class themes and dive into the art of hands on adjustments.

You’ll also build your skills as an intuitive guide and learn to teach beyond a yoga class - how to facilitate events, workshops and work one-on-one with private yoga clients. 

 

EXPAND

Expand your offerings + modalities to serve wider and deeper. 

During this journey you will learn many tools, yoga styles, embodiment and somatic based methods, practices and principles that will invite you to expand in ways beyond what words can express.
