Ripley's Bikram Teacher Training
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Jess Ripley.
I am a 30 year old VT resident trying to attend Bikram Teacher Training this fall. I have been working 60 hour work weeks since April to save enough money for tuition. I applied for a full scholarship but did not receive it. I also applied for a VSAC continuing education grant but just found out they no longer offer it for my training.
I am truly enamored with this yoga. I feel this is the path I am meant to travel. Becoming a Bikram instructor is what I am most passionate about.
Seven years ago my friend introduced me to the Bikram studio in Stowe VT. I was facing many adversities and yoga really assisted with clearing my head and organizing my thoughts. I was able to prioritize my goals and reconnect with my family.
Practicing helped me restore myself back to being happy. I started working with the Burlington Bikram studio once a week in trade for unlimited yoga. During those six years of trade, I was introduced to the most amazing community of yogis and yoginis; a group of bright positive minded healthy individuals that motivate me to become more involved in my community.
Thank you for Iistening to my story and thank you for any help y o u are able to offer!
Sincerely,
Jess Ripley
