Our yoga philosophy
We believe that the journey of becoming a yoga teacher and the ongoing learning that is a part of teaching yoga is both a genuine honor and a responsibility that is profound and significant today more than ever before. Yoga means unity to the true self and the Divine by the practice of stilling the mind and body. Our community of knowledgeable, experienced and open-hearted teachers are committed to walking this path with each of you as we strive to help ourselves and others find this unity and reconnection through the practice of yoga.
We come from a background of traditional yoga techniques and a strong foundation based on the yoga sutras and yoga philosophies of Hatha yoga, Vinyasa and Ashtanga yoga, while integrating other progressive and traditional yoga techniques including Kundalini yoga, Buti yoga, Iyengar yoga. We love to honor all lineages and believe that all yoga is good yoga. We incorporate the practices of pranayama, yoga nidra, mudras, and other meditation techniques into our course material, our classes and our practice.
You will gain the confidence and skills to become an effective and inspiring yoga teacher - not only through your training hours but through your personal practice, through the deep connections you will make with your teacher training cohort, and most importantly, through personal challenge and accomplishment of completing your 500-hour yoga teacher training.
