Yoga Teacher Training

I've been teaching yoga in my community for the last three years, since I was 17. Growing up, I was always overweight and yoga was a fitness class offered when my family joined the health club. I loved my teacher, she made me feel like I belonged and truly cared for me. A year after I lost the weight I kept up the practice for fear of gaining weight which lead to an eating disorder. My meditation then began to focus on choosing a new action when fear and anxiety entered my being. Through that revelation, I was able to become free from those self-limiting beliefs and my life became the possibility of self-love, happiness and love for others.
When I walk out of the studio after teaching, I feel more alive and connected than ever. It's my favorite feeling. During our practice I see the physical struggles, emotional struggles and then the letting it all go. I help create a beautiful space for compassion, love, patience and grace. We create new possibilities together and when I see someone able to go a bit further in their practice or get into a pose they've never been able to do before, it's THAT astonished moment in their eyes that becomes delight, joy and a feeling of success that impacts everyone's practice!
To become a full-time teacher and create those things every day is my dream. To do this, I need the further accreditation of my 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) certification. I have applied for a training that begins this September and I'm reaching out to you to ask for your support. Thank you so much for this opportunity.

Namaste
(the light in me, honors the light in you)
