General Comments
Becoming a yoga instructor has been a lifelong dream and I went into the training not knowing what to expect for a 200 hour training. I had prepared by reading the required books and memorizing the journey into power and practicing yoga daily. I thought I was ready. I had no idea that it would require such intense not only physical stamina but emotional and mental as well. Each day as I interacted with other humans with similar goals, I learned how to communicate and share difficult and emotional experiences and listen intently as they shared theirs. I learned not only about the history of yoga but was happy to see how the ethical and moral practices aligned well with my own life. As I studied anatomy I recognized why some bodies can move into certain poses easily and others adapt modifications. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Most of all I believe, as my mentors gently pushed me while reminding me I'm in a safe place, I learned to develop confidence and find my voice. I will forever remember and be grateful to the trainers at Baptiste Power Yoga Nashville, and I can't wait to share my knowledge with the world.
