Life changing opportunities await you… September 2017 The Yoga Teacher Training Experience… “Teacher training was a transformative, deepening, and a therapeutic process for me. It gave me new skills and experiences to both work on personal issues and spiritual growth and also to use professionally with my clients. The training provided an opportunity to be with authentic and soulful people. We learned and grew from our experiences together.” ~Lindsey Windrow “Teacher training was the single most transformative process of personal development I have experienced in my life. If you’re looking for connection and a place to do some deep work, this training is it.” ~Heather Moller “Teacher training helped me to accomplish a dream ….I am very excited that I actually teach.” ~Donna Anderson “I stepped into teacher training with the intention of deepening my understanding of yoga. What I quickly and inexorably realized was that yoga is deepening the understanding of and connection with the Self. I am so thankful to have taken the first steps down this lifetime path in such a supportive community.” ~Rachel Botts Teacher training begins Friday, September 8! See more info below…  URU Yoga Weekend Retreat Experience…. “Letting go of what I wanted people to think of me. I was the raw me. I met, became close and will always have a bond with a lot of other yogis from the retreat. Coldwater Gardens, a piece of heaven and the staff are truly, so real. Jennifer creates amazing meals. It was like the schedule was created for each individual. The personalities and knowledge that Beckie, Kerry and Diane have, touched everyone in a way we needed.” ~Jackie Morrow “My experience at last year’s Fall URU retreat was magical. I didn’t really know anyone going in but while there I felt like I belonged. The URU yoga teachers planned beautiful indoor and outdoor yoga classes. They also created experiences that helped me to step outside myself and build deeper connections to other human beings. Not to mention the food left me feeling refreshed, healthy, and alive. I would highly recommend going to this retreat if you want to “get away” from it all and find a deeper connection to yourself and others.” ~Rebecca Austin 2 URU Retreats coming up!
