Teaching holds a mirror to the soul. If I am willing to look in that mirror and not run from what I see I have a chance to gain self knowledge and knowing myself is as crucial to good teaching as knowing my students and my subject. In fact, knowing my students and my subject depends heavily on self knowledge.” Parker J. Palmer, The Courage to Teach

Learning adjustments gives you an understanding of where your working and where you’re releasing in the poses. We can do yoga and be very lax and hang out in joints and recruit the same old large muscles that are always doing the work. Which in turn can ingrain repetitive patterns in our bodies over and over. We aren’t laying new grooves for balance and awakening.

In our training the focus of adjustment is to teach you the full activation and maybe even reveal the doorway to the next phase of your Asana practice.

Take me to your leaders!
Meet 200 hr Yoga teacher training facilitator Jennifer Carmack, E-RYT 509

This will be Jennifer’s 8th 200 hour training she has led for Wild Spirit School of Yoga. She was trained at the Shoshoni Ashram in Nederland, CO. A traditional training focused on understand the full spectrum of yoga philosophy. She has been teaching yoga full time since 2008.

Jennifer’s draws on the practice and alignment of Hatha yoga and the Iyengar lineages. How do we create the balance between effort and receiving? Where is the sweet spot when the pose opens up the lines of energy in the body that offers us perspective and growth? Hatha yoga means sun and moon. It is a study of the dual nature of ourselves and of life. My hope is to offer my students the full experience of what yoga can be. The physical aspects of the practice are just as important. Yoga theory tells us that asana practice is how we access “the oneness” in our body. As we begin this embodiment practice, we can use the somatic tools to understand the nervous system, and uncover the relationships between the body and the patterns of trauma and energy we all carry.

As we practice the activation of asana, there is more to experience with each pose. Acknowledgement of what IS, and  resting in that moment as a full experience. Then to ride the backside of that activation wave. tuning into the receptive spaces, as ease in our breath, softening of our demeanor to allow for reverence, the samadhi and gratitude. This is the offering of our yoga experience so we may be truly able to integrate yoga into our lives, on our mats and within ourselves, that is what begins to transform us.

I truly believe that every thing in life is a direct reflection of ourselves and where we are in the process and in our perspectives. Everything is an opportunity to yoga…to step into the wider view of ourselves, while taking our place in our lives, is empowering and offers us grace. We do this work together so we may learn for ourselves and reveal the truth of our practice and process is what we offer others as we teach.

Training starts June 2020!

Take me to your leaders!
Meet your 200 Hr Yoga Teacher Training facilitator, Emily Willams, E-RYT 500

Emily's journey with yoga began to blossom in 2006. I was guided to yoga by a hope to deepen my spiritual journey, find peace and happiness and connect the energies of mind, body and spirit; initially, I fell in love with the principles and sequence of the Ashtanga practice.

As I have continued to grow and vary my practice, so has my understanding of yoga and how it integrates into whole-living.I have evolved into and out of the rigidity of the Ashtanga structure, and am forever grateful for the lessons it taught me in my body, about my mind, and how it has allowed me to connect with the Something More.

Beginning to truly understand the link between subtle energy and well-being, I received my Reiki Master Practitioner training under the guidance of Jennifer Carmack, and I continue to learn and grow under her patient, partnering friendship. Furthering our journey together, I jumped in with both feet, pursuing my passion full-time at Wild Spirit Yoga.

My greatest hope is to empower­ myself and my students to embrace our individual strengths and realize our unique visions, thus living the life we were meant to live here on this earth; with purpose and vision in service of the greater good. I have become immersed in the ceremony of life, the sacred union of being human on this planet. I believe life should be celebrated, every day, in everything... and am dedicated to continue this work. The growth is in the work, and we achieve this through accountability and support… we are meant to connect, contribute and bring value to others along the way. I am learning new ways to uncover patterns and false identifications in my own life and hope to continue to partner with others to do the same.

Our next training starts June 2022!

When we are highlighting a teaching skill, simple actions, basic poses can be helpful because the trainee is freer to consider the teaching skill, not just the posture if the posture is basic.

When we are introducing students to actions for poses, we start by introducing the action early in the class. We build basic postures with the intended action and build up to how that basic action is needed as the poses progresses.

Learning teaching skills and methods of practice is exploring yoga practice thru a new lens. Our next 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training kicks off this June 2022.

All the information logistics and pricing are on our website. Space is limited and beginning to fill so if it’s something you’re interested in please reach out and let us know.

Teaching yoga is not a linear process. It is a "coming to" sort of process. Coming to training in exactly who you are today, to use the tools of yoga in a whole embodied way...moment to moment.

So that YOU have an experience of yourself thru the yogic lens so that in itself will be the beginnings of the offering you will make as a yoga teacher. We must teach from where we have been, in theory and in experience.

Our hope as leaders thru this process is that training will continue to reveal itself for years and years to come. That your relationship with the practice of yoga will have benefited you in some way. Perhaps provided relief when you felt most tense. Offered grace when you felt none, and reminded you that you are in fact HUMAN.

Yoga is an experience of the divine thru YOU, your body. Emily Williams and Jennifer Carmack have created an amazing experience for you that is what yoga offered them. And same with the other amazing teachers that will join us, offering their experiences, their process of how yoga met them, loved on them, transformed them and opened them up to all the possibilities of the divine.
