200 HR Yoga Teacher Training (YTT)

Donation protected
My yoga journey began about a year and a half ago. I walked into a Yogaworks studio and took a free introduction class. I had always been fascinated with anything pertaining to free body movement. The poetry in the lines of someone’s silhouette. The creativity in the detail. If I'm being honest however, when I viewed someone doing "yoga" I just saw fancy stretching.  On an Aesthetic level I, could admit it was the most appealing thing I had personally ever witnessed.  It's why the practice stuck out to me to begin with. 
I fell in love with yoga that first introduction class. Not just because my instructor seemed passionate and had a soothing voice. Not because I was finally making shapes with my body the way I had only daydreamed about. Instead because I felt liberated and free. I felt a sense of calm and awareness I had never experienced. Euphoria comes to mind. Over time I have learned that yoga is not what it is because it shapes you and makes you into a better and stronger person. It is what it is because it teaches you that you are already that better stronger version of yourself. Yoga for me is not about self-improvement but, about self-acceptance. Being honest and raw with myself. Yoga means union. Union of the Mind, Body and Spirit. Union of soul. It has been these things and more for me. Yoga saved my life. It made me realize that I am perfect as is. It gave me an outlet for all the emotions I had been bottling up for so long. Yoga and meditation have become my safe place. 

The rewards with this practice are endless! What I have experienced since beginning is only just that, the beginning. I want to share this passion of mine. I want to help others explore themselves. I want to help find that secrete place deep within that opens all doors. That walks through this life conscious and free of all shackles. I feel I am finally ready to really get this show on the road! I want to teach! I want to grow with my community. My dream is to help reach people of color and heal as ONE with one another in EMPOWERMENT. I want to help heal all for that matter, but of course I cherish my roots and have visions of my brothers and sisters coming together in spirit and in truth!  

To make all this happen I need a little help. One thing I know for sure is we all need help sometimes. I am asking for any donations you can extend to this cause. To make my dreams come true of growing richer in the knowledge of this practice, training is necessary! Training in all things YOGA. I am thrilled to start this new journey and would appreciate anything you can and are willing to give! I appreciate you even taking the time to read all of this! I know we all have lives. Lol . The training begins on February 4th 2017 and if I do not raise this money by then I would miss this incredible opportunity to learn and grow at an incredible studio where I truly feel at home.  Of course, I won't let it get me down. My dream will be reality regardless someday , I have this feeling NOW is the time. Again, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!! For all support. Donation or otherwise. :)


Love and Light to all!
