yoga teacher training

I would not be who I am without learning from these incredible people of color. I'll share what I have learned from them and how you can support their work. The first two are yoga teachers, but the others have also significantly influenced who I am as a person and teacher. These people are all based around Austin, TX, but you can connect with them from anywhere in the world.
