 Metrowest Yoga  200 hour RYT Teacher Training  2013/2014 begins in October.

Metrowest Yoga blends the ancient Eastern art of yoga with the modern Western approach to exercise science and healing. This training is a current day approach to this ancient healing practice. Metrowest Yoga creates an atmosphere of healing and personal transformation while training you to be an authentic, confident and capable teacher. As you learn the skill of teaching, you will also discover your tremendous strength, an inner calm and the brilliance of your spirt. You will learn how to teach from your heart and from your deepest personal experiences.

Whether to strengthen your personal practice or learn how to teach yoga, view this experience as training in how to live life more fully.
