RIPL: Trauma Conscious 200 YTT

The R.I.P.L program is born out of our mission to live a life rooted in service & recovery.  The RIPL 200 Hour program will prepare you for much more than teaching yoga, it will prepare you to be a trauma conscious leader in all facets of life, creating a RIPL in your community.  A RIPL of healing, nurturing and loving ourselves right where we are. 

If you are looking to lead Yoga classes, meditation classes, circles and more, then this is an opportunity to lean into the wisdom of philosophy to guide that journey.  

Becoming a Yoga Teacher is much more than just sequencing classes, it is becoming a safe space where individuals can recenter, reconnect and release.  Let’s face it, we all have Trauma.  And the past 18 months have only compounded that.  My trauma is no greater than yours, and collectively we can journey together into healing.  Every choice, action, word, thought, is a RIPL.  Begin the change by enrolling in this one of a kind 200 YTT.  Empower yourself to empower others.  If you have been dreaming of creating change, this is your opportunity to become the RIPL. 

Our unique approach to the 200 hour curriculum includes a well rounded, trauma conscious program to teach ease, humility, grace and compassion and how they are woven into the yogic principles and teachings.
