What’s it like to go through Teacher Training at Past Tense? 💜 Hear from one of our graduates, Barbara, about their experience!

Our 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training offers a supportive, hands-on environment to deepen your practice and develop the skills and confidence to teach a well rounded asana class.

Next year’s training is divided into two parts— the Teacher Training and Yoga Immersives. Yoga Teacher Training focuses on skills, knowledge, and application to teach. Yoga Immersives offer opportunities to explore specific aspects of yoga more deeply and can be taken over the course of two years.

Sound baths: no water required. 🤭

For this edition of The Lowdown: Stuff Worth Knowing, we’re breaking down what a sound bath actually is, the science behind it, what you might experience, and the different tools and instruments that create all the sound.

And yes, there can be many more instruments involved than the ones pictured here. Singing bowls, mallets, gongs, chimes, drums, harmoniums, and other instruments can all make their way into a sound bath depending on the practitioner and experience.

Curious what it feels like for yourself? Kelly is leading a sound bath tonight, Sept. 3 at 7:30pm, and there are still a few spots left!

Come get comfortable, slow down, tune in, and see what you notice.
