We take this journey together, the relationships and connections in each cohort are a very special part of teacher training that can be lost in online video-based training. Together we hold space for discovering our true selves, empowering our inner strength and resilience, and discovering the universal truth. That we are whole and complete as we are.

Not everyone takes their training to become a teacher. Students also join to develop the peace of mind, increase their quality of life, and support their physical and mental health. The tools & experiences you gain are universal & may be applied to all aspects of your life.
