This is the 5th in a series of interviews with graduates from the Integrative Yoga Therapy teacher training program offered through Body Therapies Yoga Training.

1. What is one thing that every yoga teacher trainee must do?

Create more space in their lives so they have time to do the work on the course and allow it to integrate into their lives.

2. What is one thing that every yoga teacher trainee must avoid?

Being a perfectionist

3. Is being a yoga teacher just trendy or is it here to stay?

It depends on the intention of each teacher and how seriously they take the yoga journey.

4.  Can a yoga teacher still be successful if they are in a crowded niche?

Each teacher brings their own gifts.

5. What has the yoga teacher training done for you?
It has shown me that yoga literature contains a vast and deep body of knowledge.  As I integrate yoga more consistently in my schedule, I find it is gradually unwinding my body.  As I prepare for the classes before I teach, I continue to learn more about yoga and am happy to share that with others.
