Yoga Teacher Training with Mary O'Toole
I started a new journey in 2006 when I began my yoga teacher training. I had no idea why I was drawn to this training. I was only doing yoga for a few short months.
I had no idea what was in store for me. I only knew I had a pull, a feeling, a need to be in this specific yoga teacher training. My husband encouraged me to "go for it".
I signed up for yoga teacher training with hesitation. My mind told me it was the most ridiculous idea ever. It also told me I was the least likely person ever to teach yoga. I really had no desire to teach yoga but knew I had to be in the training at that time.
I'm happy I didn't listen to my mind but instead listened to that feeling, a strong pull to be part of a 200 hour teacher training program.
Once i started the training I wanted to quit everyday for the first three months. I had no idea why I was there. I was the only one in class who had little to no experience in yoga. After all I started doing yoga by following a video tape by Suzanne Deason at home.
My teachers knew I was on the edge of quitting. Every time my body moved into a pose it made a very loud cracking noise. My body was so tight that I had to modify almost all the poses. I never looked as good as the other students who made their way so gracefully into each pose. What yogi's call "easy sitting" was everything but easy for me. I had lots of reasons to NOT be in this training but I didn't quit.
About half way through the training something shifted/changed for me. I don't know what but I remember all of a sudden I felt OK with being in yoga teacher training. I felt ok with having to modify and use props to support my body in certain yoga postures. I made it OK to be OK with who I was and how I had to support my body at the time.
My yoga teacher training was a big journey of self discovery. I came out the training knowing me. I discovered ME and it lead to other things that I would never have done if I wasn't in yoga teacher training.
During the training it became abundantly clear that I LOVE helping people. I learned I have a natural ability to teach and help others to self discover so they too can be OK with who they are.
I'm so excited about offering Yoga Teacher training and help others to self discover. I can't wait to show students how they can offer and teach a variety of yoga practices to all types of people.
You will learn the amazing ways that all people can do a variation of yoga. I believe all people can do some version of yoga. (sitting in a chair, lying in bed, on a plane, in a yoga studio and so much more).
In this program expect to really get to know YOU. You will be required to do self care. I found this requirement so beneficial when I took my yoga teacher training.
I don't believe it's enough to just show up and teach yoga poses. You need to show up as the amazing teacher you are and offer your students the real amazing you. To get to that amazing space you will need to go through the weeds and clear the garbage. This was my experience in Yoga Teacher Training.
I hope you take this journey with me.
I'd love to support and help you be the most amazing yoga teacher you can be.
The world needs you now more than ever.
Namaste!

What Are People Saying?
|
I came to yoga teacher training not really with the mindset that I was going to be a yoga teacher. I was drawn to the training as something that I'd just like to do "for myself", no real expectations other than the idea that it was a longer-term commitment to learn something new. I also have Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis and I was thinking that this training would be an alternative to physical therapy, something to help me physically. I thoroughly enjoyed the training, all 200 hours! I got so much more out of it than the physical work, though.
The small group was exceptionally helpful on many levels. I found that the training itself was transformative in many areas of my life! We covered so many topics and I found that by the end of the training, I had really changed my perspective in many facets of life, both personally and professionally. A shift in mindset was not something I expected, but that was actually probably my biggest takeaway. I would recommend this commitment to anyone who is interested in learning more about themselves as a whole. It was really quite an experience, and I look forward to participating in future events as an alumni. I might even teach yoga! Seriously, though, I do feel ready and capable of teaching yoga, yoga for every body. Thank you so much for an experience I will not soon forget. - Aileen |
