“There was so much value, it's hard to choose one. I suppose the physical and mental growth that happened for me during this training, the community that was built with my fellow trainees, and how the training helped me grow as a teacher- these were all gems. Our trainees really cared and were very generous with their time and knowledge, and I am so grateful! Also, I love how we dove so deeply into the philosophy of yoga!”
