What are the benefits of the Thursday Track?

This longer format weeknight track is geared to those who have a busy schedule with full-time jobs, children, social engagements, etc. It also allows for the slow absorption of knowledge; one has the luxury of time to savor all the new information.

The long format also comes in clutch for extra practice teaching time! We are one of the only studios that prepares you to teach an hour long yoga class by the end of your teacher training.

You may choose to join us either in-person or by zoom!

Or connect with us first by emailing marnie.castor@gmail.com with any questions you have!

What are the benefits of taking a Teacher Training?

At the end of the Teacher Training, you will be recognized as a 200 hour Yoga Alliance certified yoga teacher. You can begin teaching public or private classes. Even if you don’t want to teach yoga, you will deepen your yoga practice and get a greater understanding of what the science and art of yoga is. Teacher training is a deeply satisfying experience; you grow and you learn a lot about YOURSELF. It is a gift that you not only give to yourself but also share with other people. The study of yoga is a lifelong journey; it doesn’t expire.
