Is This For Me?

Hear the inspiring stories from our graduates. This could be you, a year from now.

I don’t want to teach, I just want to really learn the poses and be able to carry on a thought-provoking conversation about yoga.  

Get in here. This is as much for you as it is for the teachers. Most of being a good instructor is deeply knowing and internalizing your yoga, for yourself. Once you’ve got that, teaching is an outflow of the discoveries you make while living out your practice. At least half of our Yoga Schoolers do it to deepen their practice but not teach.  

I may have to miss a session or two.  

So miss a session or two - you can make it up (and more, if you want!) through the online version of Yoga School. Don’t throw away a life-changing experience because you can’t be perfect at it. Doing your best will always get you more in life than doing nothing.  

I'm not good enough at yoga yet. 

All the more reason to do it. This is to GET you good at yoga. You'll dissect the poses and learn them intimately. Get the right foundation now, bypass bad habits, and you’ll practice at higher level every day for the rest of your life.  

Yoga isn’t about how deeply you go into the poses, it’s about how deeply you connect with yourself. "Doing it right" makes a profound difference, so this is actually an ideal way to start your yoga journey. 

It’s overwhelming.  

Things are as big as we let them be. You can see it as overwhelming or you can see it as intentional time for you. Also keep in mind that growth is usually intimidating on some level. What pattern do you want in your life: conquering your fears or letting them shut you down?  

I feel guilty spending money (or time or energy) on myself.  

I hear you so painfully well. I used to, too. It caused imbalances all over the place that I thought were just part of life. Things changed in WAY more areas, WAY more dramatically than I thought they would once I started budgeting for myself.  

The thing that changed my ways was realizing the subconscious root: if I didn’t think I was worth spending time & money on, what did that say about how I saw myself? It's one thing to spend money on things you don’t really want or need. It's something entirely different to investing in yourself in super-heathy ways that your higher self is asking for. 

It's so cliche but is SO true: when you're at your best, you're better for EVERYONE else, too. Loving yourself is one of the best ways you can love your loved ones and everyone else.
