Yoga Teacher Training Dream!
Donation protected
Hello to my fellow GoFundMe onlookers! I have been practicing yoga for a couple years now and the more I practice and teach my friends and family about yoga the more I realize this is what I was meant to do.
Yoga to me is more than just a physical practice, even though the yoga asanas are still a very important limb of yoga. The practice of yoga to me is an interal awakening, a spiritual growth to become aware of who you really are. I believe that by practicing yoga you can overcome any life obstacles or fears, may they be in the past or future. Yoga teaches us how to love ourselves and each other, how to deal with what may seem like failures, to be humble even with our successes and to be true to who we are. Yoga is a practice, it is not something we are ever done with.
My dream is to be a yoga teacher and to share my knowledge on yoga with as many people as possible but even if I can help just one person enhance their yoga practice my dream would come true. I want to make yoga affordable to everyone, after all yoga used to be free. I would love to offer more affordable classes or teach people how to have successful at-home yoga practices so everyone could benefit from yoga.
When I am not doing the physical practice of yoga I am either reading books about yoga, watching videos or lectures on yoga, I am currently taking an online yoga teacher course by Sadie Nardini (just for knowledge, I can not teach with this certification) or volunteering at a local yoga studio. As you can see I am dedicated to enhancing my knowledge on yoga but without help I could not afford to get my yoga teacher training certification.
Exhale Yoga Studio offers teacher trainings a few times a year and they are planning on doing one in April of 2015 with Meghan Currie my all time favorite yoga teacher in Bali. I have one year to save and raise enough to be able to attend. Any donations would be greatly and forever appreciated. I will be saving my own money of course but even with that it would take me well over a year to save enough. Anything helps! Thank you so much for taking your time to read this and have a lovely, wonderful day!
Love, Josie
