Yoga 101

Are you curious about yoga? Have you ever wondered, “what exactly is yoga?” Have you been thinking about starting or restarting a yoga practice? Are you looking to connect with yourself and this practice on a deeper level?

…without having to learn at a studio where everyone else seems to know what they’re doing (hint*hint* no one really knows ;-))

…without paying for expensive private lessons

…without having to leave your house

…without having to even change out of your pajamas!

What if there was an online course that…

• Allowed you to gain CONFIDENCE in your practice and learn from the comfort of your own home
• Was EASY to use and allowed you to go at your own pace
• Provided you with helpful resources that you could keep forever to SUPPORT you for years to come

Maybe you...

• Are looking to understand what yoga is and if it’s for you
• Have heard so many great things about yoga, but you’re not convinced it will help YOU
• Feel confused with all the poses and don’t know where to start
• Feel disconnected from your body
• Are curious around what style of yoga is best for you
• Are looking for something to help you find more peace and less stress in your life
• Tried a yoga class or two and didn’t feel relaxed at all
• Don’t understand how sitting still in meditation is supposed to help
• Cardio is your exercise and don’t think yoga is right for you
• Feel intimidated going to a yoga class in a studio until you have a basic understanding of the practice and the postures

Listen, I’ve been there before.

When I first started practicing yoga, it took me awhile to go consistently. I felt really out of place and the teacher was saying things in another language (which I later learned was Sanskrit) and part of me was fearful I had accidentally joined a cult!

It wasn’t until much later when I committed to a 200 hour (and expensive) teacher training program that I learned more about the practice and how it fit in with my life.

13 years later, I don’t even recognize the person Yoga has helped me to become. I’m happier and healthier than I’ve ever been – and most importantly – Yoga has given me the tools to craft the life I’ve always wanted.

I live in my dream city, San Francisco, teaching yoga and building a beautiful community, married to the greatest love of my life, and most importantly…I love the person I’m becoming. I live my life with PURPOSE.

So now you might be wondering…

How did yoga do all that?

I thought yoga was a workout, what does that have to do with redesigning my life?

And the answer is…

I started noticing how yoga wasn’t just making me physically flexible, but mentally, and emotionally as well. Yoga is a practice that brings you closer to your true self. And when we’re connected with your true self, it’s easier to say no to things that don’t serve us and yes to those that light us up. We become better friends, partners, parents, and coworkers.

That flexibility came from…

• Learning which yoga style was right for me
• Studying the 8 limbs (or parts) of yoga, and not just the physical exercises
• Learning how to breathe in yoga, and spending time connecting with my breath and body
• Understanding the origins of yoga, what it is, and how it works
• Getting to know myself and taking responsibility for the things in my life I want to change
• And so much more…

And now I’ve taken these lessons and turned them into an easy to follow course called…

Yoga 101 – the tools and support you need to start or restart your yoga practice.
