My 10th year of opening my studio, and heart, to welcome participants of Sun Moon Yoga Study! Thank you to every student, teacher and visitor that has walked through the doors and into my life. Graduates have achieved excellence as teachers, studio owners; however, I intentionally do not use the words “teacher training” in marketing.

Contemporary yoga, with brand name franchised studios, mass-produced teachers, standardized sequences, memorized dialogue and competitive marketing has changed the view of teacher.

Having decided to teach, they seek a training to teach them WHAT to teach. They are short-changed as you can’t multi-task with yoga. There’s limited self-development when one is trying to figure out how to teach something while they are learning it.
