I'm a new mom, so I am always on the go - even before having my daughter Kinsley - I always had 8 million things to do at one time. When I enrolled in my Teacher Training in 2013, I was in school with a double degree (go Terps!), working 15-20 hours at a Country Club Fitness center and teaching Pilates 10-15 hours a week. Oh, and then I decided to get a boxer puppy, just because!
I can totally relate to being "too busy" for something, but I decided to enroll anyway and it changed the entire trajectory of my life. Wicked Om Yoga's 10 week program covers everything that other trainings do, just in a condensed period of time and with an accessible schedule (2 weeknights and 1 weekend afternoon). The program itself is meant to be flexible, as I know I'm not the only person with a busy life, so don't stress about missing a few sessions! You can make up most of the sessions with Ciara or another TT coach on your schedule. The training is such a great way to dive deeper in to all aspects of yoga. It is open to everyone - whether you want to become a teacher or just deepen your understanding of yoga!
This is arguably one of the most important questions I get asked by my students, friends and family. My Teacher Training was one of the best decisions of my life – not only did it deepen my practice on my mat, but it brought light to other aspects of my life that I was not expecting. And that’s all alongside hanging with an awesome group of people with whom you make life-long friendships. I spent 8 weeks with some of the most incredible people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I was inspired by each and every one of my coaches and fellow teacher trainees on a daily basis. To this day, I am still amazed at my experience and it’s something I wish to share with everyone I meet.
Imagine choosing you, for only a short period of time – 10 weeks or nine months. I mean, really choosing you, above anyone else. Teacher Training is an opportunity for you to choose you, in every sense of the word. Wicked Om’s Yoga Teacher Training is a 10-week program that deep dives in to all aspects of yoga, including actually learning how to teach! The training is open to anyone – even those who have no desire to teach yoga! You’ll learn how to trust yourself, find your voice and build life-long friendships and a strong community, all while coming from a place of abundance. What could happen if you choose you for 10 weeks? Come find out!
