Our vision:
Our vision is to nurture 200-hour teachers to grow confidence in their teaching skills and their ability to hold inclusive spaces for broad and diverse communities of students.
We believe that a 500-hour yoga teacher should feel comfortable and confident in their teaching skills, but also have mastery in areas of yoga that they feel passionate about.
We believe that a 500-hour teacher should be able to skillfully teach public classes, but also hold space for students in a one-on-one and individualized context.
We believe that a 500-hour teacher should have the skills to teach in multiple public settings from yoga studio to community and know how to hold a supportive space for diverse communities of people.
