Yesterday at our Meet and greet session about the 2025 - 2026 Tula Yoga Teacher Training the question was raised wondering what a training day looked like if it wasn't all about the physical asana (posture) side of yoga. What a great question! While asana, or yoga postures, is an important part of a Yoga Training, it is just one of the 8 limbs, of one of the 4 paths of yoga - so there is so much more! So, in a nutshell, here is the answer. A typical Tula training day includes
* Morning meditation - a variety of meditation techniques are explored so students can find the approach that works best for them.
* Asana Practice either with the larger Y community, or in our small training group. Practices include moderate and gentle flow, and exposure to other styles of yoga - including chair, restorative, and yoga nidra.
* Teaching methodology - Teaching yoga is as much about holding space as it is leading and imparting knowledge, so it may be a different skill set than you have previously mastered if you are already a teacher.
* Group projects - Valuable learning comes not only from the teacher, but from the other students, and the process.
* Asana lab - breaking down the postures, reviewing anatomy from online sessions, exploring different variations for different bodies, learning how to guide others in exploring the postures in their unique bodies
* By the 2nd month students are practicing teaching each other, so a 2nd meditation or asana practice may be on the schedule.
* Open discussions on reflections, insights, history and philosophy of yoga, questions that arise as part of the learning process.
* Between in-person training weekends there are on-demand sessions on Yoga anatomy, and yoga philosophy, and the group joins together on-line once a month to re-connect, and to discuss the online sessions.

The once a month in-person weekends are full and rich, and students leave each training day knowing that they have worked hard, physically, mentally, and emotionally, but feeling invigorated to learn and experience even more!

When I decided to become a yoga teacher it was because I loved yoga and teaching movement. Now, the highlight of being a yoga teacher is when students share with me how yoga helps them navigate the challenges of life with equanimity. ❤️
Whatever your intention in considering a Yoga Teacher Training I encourage you to lean in, who knows where it will bring you!

So Hum - I am. Beauty in simplicity.

So Hum - I am. Beauty in simplicity.

Perhaps uncomfortable at first, but beautiful words that when heeded offer immense comfort and peace.
“Become conscious of being conscious. Say or think “I am”, and add nothing to it. Be aware of the stillness that follows the “I am”. Sense your presence, the naked unveiled, unclothed beingness. It is untouched by young or old, rich or poor, good or bad, or any other attributes. It is the spacious womb of all creation, all form.”
― Ramana Maharshi
