3 THINGS I LEARNED FROM MY FIRST YOGA TEACHER TRAINING, MEET STELLA
Mar 27, 2021
Hi, my name is Stella. I am a dancer, a mother, a doula of birth and death, a happiness advocate, a realtor, a teacher, a change maker, a healer. I am all of these things and so much more. I feel my way through my life, it is the only way to do it for me, it has kept me alive. I do what feels good.
I studied dance and theater in school, and in my early 20s I had my 3 children. I worked as an instructor and coordinator at a big gym when I discovered Yoga Teacher Training and it was the first training that helped me figure out how to be successful at life. It was a school that gave me a way to create the quality of life I wanted, and it taught me how to create a career for myself, while enjoying my love for movement. Yoga gave me a direction. It gave me a way to channel & harness my ideas to produce a life that was conducive to my family. A lifestyle where I get to have it all. A career AND a family, healthy relationships AND a sex life, happiness AND money.
I have been teaching yoga for 30 years. I have my own yoga studio, Yoga Teacher Training and Life School. The manifestation of everything in my life is because yoga practices are the root of all wholistic therapies.
3 Things I learned from my first yoga teacher training:
-
I am capable. I learned that I could take the system (any system) and adapt it to fit my personal needs.
-
There is hope. Don’t give up. There are unlimited resources. Yoga Teacher Training was the ultimate resource center for me.
-
There is freedom in a spiritual path. I learned that I can have my own personalized approach to my spirituality. I didn't have to pick one thing. I didn't have to choose a church or a service to go to. My yoga mat is my spiritual path, I don’t have to go anywhere or do anything to get it.
