What is my biggest vision for the teacher I want to be?  What sense of purpose inspires me? 

All sessions include a mix of practice, lecture, workshop and practicum.  Upon graduation, you will receive a 200 hour certificate which allows you to register with the internationally recognized Yoga Alliance.
