Certified (y)OG(a)
You heard right! This January I finally decided to take my love for yoga next level and take a RYT 200 course.
What exactly is that? Well it's when you complete a 200-hour yoga teacher training program that is registered with Yoga Alliance and meets all of their requirements.
I couldn't have asked for two better teachers to learn from than Holly Weston and Katherine Wilder. Holly Weston is as smart as she is beautiful and owns the studios where the certification took place, Haute Yoga. Holly spent several years living in New York and had the opportunity to take classes with Sharon Gannon during the birth of Jivamukti. Katherine (equally gorgeous inside and out) is an incredibly talented massage therapist that moonlights as a insane yogi. She's been studying yoga since 2001 and teaching since 2004. She credit the philosophy and Universal Principles of Alignment of the Anusara Yoga method has had the biggest influence on her practice & teaching style.
What does all of THAT mean? It means that they are just so overwhelmingly awesome it almost hurts. The certification process was one o the best things I've decided to do. There are no words for how much my heart just fills up with happiness looking back on our incredible adventure.
