What most people don't realize about a yoga teacher training is that it is so much more than learning just about yoga or about the poses.
1. Communication. Learning to stand in front of people and express your thoughts, share ideas as well as guide them through various postures isn't something that we are all naturally good at. But it is something that we can work on and improve.
2. Confidence. If you were anything like me standing in front of a room full of people and speaking was a terrifying thought. After going through training that has slowly faded over the years. You start to trust your own voice and learn to stand firmly and hold space.
3. Awareness. We learn to observe, reflect, and start to have a dialogue with our body, our mind, our relationships, our day-to-day actions and decisions. All of this can be done without much thought or with more awareness. We can bring a greater intention to our daily life.
There are plenty of trainings out there, but am biased and think that the 200-hour Dou Yoga training is pretty stellar. less
