In striving to provide equitable access to material essentials, they are committed to meeting people where they are, learning one another’s stories and working collaboratively. They are committed to mutual respect.They are committed to scrutinizing the root causes of systemic inequity and inspiring those around us to be part of bringing change to systems that have been designed to leave certain people behind.

We’re known for our tiered pricing for our weekly classes, we also offer these tiers for our YTTs: Community $2700, Standard $3000, and Support $3300. No questions asked, and payment plans are available.

👉Do I have to be good at fancy poses?

TEACHING A THERAPEUTIC PRIVATE

✨ This weekend ✨

December 6 & 7 | 12-5pm | PYP DOWNTOWN

Last chance to register for this weekend training with Kate! Dive deep into the nuances for teaching privates, learn creative and effective ways to use all sorts of props, and discover hands-assists that support you and your student!

Learn a bit more about Kate! 👇

Kate’s love for yoga began about 10 years ago while living in NY. After a few years of being in search of something that would help her move through life with more physicality, ease and health she quickly fell for the practice after experiencing the ways in which it was supporting and helping different aspects of her life. Growing up an athlete, her love for the physicality of it all is certainly at the core of her appreciation for the practice, however as she’s moved through life, her experience with the ways in which it supports and feeds her imagination has been the most fun.
