Celebration of First 200hr Yoga Teacher Training

Wow! Wahe Guru! 16 Brand new Yoga Teachers on Sun Studio's stage! They travelled from far (Halifax being the record) and near, made time and space in their lives to commit to 20 days of studio yoga teacher training time, 30 hours of observing and taking live yoga classes, and many, many, many hours of homework and practice! I believe it's taken more than 200 hours to come to completion. 

Jay Suttonbrown from Manipura Yoga College offers a unique foundational training, teaching students wisdom, knowledge and experience of both Hatha Yoga and Kundalini Yoga traditions in her 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training.  Hatha practice and teachings inform Kundalini Yoga practice, as students learn safe adjustments and alternate postures. Kundalini Yoga practice informs Hatha Yoga practice with a deeper understanding and experience of energetic bodies and a wide range of use of 'Naad', or Sacred Sound Current. 

I am just in awe of all these amazing people, who worked so hard since February.  It takes strength, courage, discipline, commitment, power to surrender and sacrifice to get there. 

​CONGRATULATIONS to all!!! The hard work pays off. I witnessed huge transformations and people stepping up, showing their authenticity, vulnerability and finding their voice.

And a HUGE THANK YOU to the amazing, powerhouse, FireStar Yoga Teacher Trainer: Jay Suttonbrown from Manipura Yoga College. Without you making time and space to step out of your busy life in Nanaimo, this would not have been possible. Haaw'a, haaw'a, haaw'a. 

I stand in awe and am so grateful for this community of yogis and fellow teachers, you all know how much it means to me! 
Wahe Guru!

Blessings to all,
