Yoga Academy Teacher Trainings...

If you are wondering if you should become a yoga instructor (whether it is a Yoga For BJJ Instructor or an official Yoga Instructor) that is a good question. 

If you are reading this blog post wondering about the above question...Then answer is more than likely 'YES!'. 

Why is that? 

Perhaps you are wanting to deepen your own knowledge and practice, learn something new, maybe even teach and help others - giving back to your community through yoga.

Often I hear of people who miss out on amazing opportunities because they don't know if they are 'ready'.

 A great metaphor for this is: someone who does not go to gym because they need to 'get into shape first'. The purpose of the gym is to get them into shape. 

Seems a little ridiculous, doesn't it?

Missing the entire point - that the purpose of the gym is to get them into shape. Therefore, they missed out on the goal of getting into shape, feeling better emotionally and physically, and even inspiring others to do the same. 

The concept: A person never feels ready, and the timing will never be perfect. But if it's not your job to feel ready, it's our job to make you ready. Perhaps you are more ready than you think. 

Think of these teacher trainings as a boot camp - you head into the training having completed your homework and unsure of what to expect. You leave the training a confident instructor having joined a community of likeminded individuals from all over the world. 

Okay. So what are these  Yoga Academy Teacher Trainings all about?

The level 2 really is that next level of training and we want to progress your development as an instructor.
It is not something you ‘check off your list’ or ‘complete’, but something you grow into, and evolves with you over time. Level 2 course is the equivalent of getting your blue belt in BJJ, you have the foundations - and begin finding your training, teaching style and crafting your game together.
