What You Can Expect

Each module is designed to guide you through your own transformation while equipping you to teach with clarity, confidence, and care.
-
This program will highlight women in yoga and their untold tradition and stories.
We will also explore beyond what we know about mainstream yoga and trace its ancient roots from Africa and India to the West.

Explore the roots of yoga through both ancient texts and lived experiences. Learn the ethical principles (Yamas & Niyamas), the Eight Limbs of Yoga, and how to integrate them into your life and teaching.
-
Understand how the body moves and holds energy. Learn applied anatomy, nervous system education, and foundational alignment principles — all through an inclusive and body-honoring lens.
-
Discover how to build intentional, trauma-aware classes rooted in intuitive movement and personal expression. You'll learn cueing, theming, and how to sequence classes for different populations.

This module prepares you to step into your role as a teacher and wellness leader. You'll explore community care, social justice in wellness, the business of teaching, and how to offer your work with integrity and impact.
This is a sacred pause — not just from your routine, but from the roles, expectations, and noise that may have kept you from hearing yourself clearly.
You won’t be doing this alone. You’ll be surrounded by others who also said yes to this kind of transformation — who are ready to rest, reclaim, and rise in community.
Belize gives you the space to slow down and truly listen
