Education & Experience Matters.
A Few Words From Heather:
​
"I believe that education is one of the most important elements that influences whether a yoga teacher trainee becomes a good yoga teacher or a great yoga teacher. With knowledge, a strong curriculum, guidance, and support I've had the honor of watching so many shift from uncertainty to a confidence in their abilities as practitioners AND as yoga teachers!"
