Beyond the training days
Some of the most important learning happens between sessions. Alongside our time together, you'll keep up your own practice, get comfortable leading others, and steadily build the knowledge you need to teach with confidence.
20
Hours of practice teaching
Completed outside of our scheduled meeting times. Teach friends, family, fellow trainees, or anyone willing to roll out a mat. This is where your cues, sequencing, and voice really start to take shape.
