Why Dive Into a 200 Hour Program?
Think of the energy in the room during a yoga class. There’s a palpable magic when we share space to move and breathe and evolve.
That same energy is intensified when you’re part of a group of like-minded, high intentioned friends sharing 200 hours of yoga study, practice, and community.
A yoga training is NOT just for people who want to be yoga teachers. It’s just as incredible of an experience for people who are simply hungry for knowledge, desire a deeper connection to their yoga practice, and want to grow in a safe and spiritual setting alongside others.
