-
Will I really learn to teach yoga? Will there be practice teaching?
Yes and yes! I feel that it's important that my students feel ready to start teaching upon completely this course. To that end, the course provides set sequences that you will learn to teach, a clear sequencing methodology, and the opportunity to practice teach in small groups. Learning to teach and speak in front of a group can be intimidating at first -- I scaffold the learning to ensure that you feel safe and supported throughout the course.

Can I get started before the calls start on January 14th?
Yes, once you enroll, you will be sent an email that gives you access to more than 150+ of pre-recorded lectures, and assignments, as well as yoga, meditation, and pranayama practices. You can get started right away!
