200-hour Body Positive Yoga Teacher Training

This yoga teacher training certification was one-of-a-kind. 16 of us traveled from all over the United States to Richmond, Virginia to meet in-person for the very first time.

This was the first 200 hour teacher training I facilitated. I created a truly original program in the industry. This training emphasized accessible, adaptive yoga asana practice, intersectional feminist and social justice principles, addressed working with marginalized communities and outside the “mainstream yoga” industry, and operated from a body neutral perspective.

Faculty included Valerie Hesslink, Francesca Cervero, Michelle C. Johnson, Lisa Vaughan-Meer, Susanna Barkataki, Kelley Palmer, and more.

I structured the training to be ideal for folks to travel. We had 5 sessions spread out from October 2019-March 2020.

Anyone remember what happened in March 2020? I found myself suddenly canceling the last 8-day module of our training and pivoting quickly to finish our training online.

My students were brilliant, and this is one of my favorite teaching experiences to date. I am forever grateful for this group!
