- You want to know how to use Yoga, Meditation and Ayurveda to eliminate tension and stress as naturally as possible for everything from fatigue to low back pain to prenatal yoga, using yoga postures, breathwork, meditation, trigger points and techniques passed down for thousand of years through the yoga tradition.
- You want new career opportunities doing something you love where you get to help others transform their lives with their yoga practice, with the freedom for you to work whenever, wherever and however you'd like.

QYTT GraduateWhat's Inside The Quietmind Yoga Teacher Training?
MODULE 01
LEARN YOGA IN-DEPTH (2 Months)
From the 3000 year old source texts to modern day Vinyasa, you'll gain clarity and confidence as you learn yoga step by step. This is the foundation for the next two modules, as well as a lifetime of personal growth for you as a student and teacher.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Start teaching on day one in a safe and supportive environment with your 1-1 accountability partner so by the end of the training you have overcome the fear of teaching and know you can lead great classes.
- Build strength, flexibility and balance with "Anatomy Demystified," based on my experience as a Certified Personal Trainer and hundreds of hours of study with physical therapists. Learn the incredibly effective “Release, Strengthen, Stretch” technique that you won't find in any other YTT.
- Build Confidence In 10 Core Competencies so everything connects from postures to philosophy, anatomy, meditation, Ayurveda and all aspects of yoga, in the most comprehensive, easy to follow format.
- Master the 50 most common poses. From Downdog to Sun Salutations to Savasana, learn the "Yoga Pose MAP" (mistakes, alignment and progressions) to make any pose work for you and any level of student; from beginner to advanced.
- Complete a 30 day yoga & meditation series to embody and apply everything you learn. Past students have finished this module saying "this is the best I've ever felt!"
MODULE 02
PROGRESS YOUR PRACTICE (2 Months)
There is only so much you can learn from taking drop-in classes. When should you do inversions or sun salutations or backbends? How do you apply what you learn in yoga to the rest of your life? Why is breathing called the most important part of yoga? Where do you learn how to get into advanced poses? This module will save you years of confusion, prevent countless injuries and potentially even add years to your life (!)
HIGHLIGHTS
- Complete 30 days of self-lead practice as yoga was traditionally taught. Build a whole new level of depth in your intuition and mind/body awareness. Many teachers today have never practiced this way and it’s easy to tell. This is why your classes will stand out!
- Master the 20 most common advanced poses from Koundinyasana to Bird of Paradise to Handstand use ‘Pose Progressions’ and the ‘Step Sequencer’ method to get into any pose one anatomical action at a time.
- Create your Ayurvedic daily routine based on your unique Dosha (element), with daily habits to feel your best. Learn the ‘Ayurvedic Clock’ to plan your day to easily apply yoga to your life 24/7
- Master the art of reading energy in bodies including the 7 Chakras, the 5 Koshas and the 3 Gunas from the source texts of Yoga. Learn techniques to increase, decrease or balance these energies in any pose with simple adjustments you can immediately feel taking effect.
- Master one minute breathing, nadi shodhana and other pranayama techniques to regulate your nervous system, focus your mind and breathe with less effort. Why is breathing called ‘the most important part of yoga’? The source texts teach that life is not measured in years, but in breaths.
MODULE 03
TEACH GREAT CLASSES (2 Months)
New teachers can lose days focusing on the wrong things like memorizing new sequences before every class. This takes away from their home practice and adds stress to their lives. Worst of all, their students feel like the teacher is detached and not fully present. I’ll show you how to prepare your classes in a fraction of the time, in a way that students leave class saying “that was exactly what I needed!” All built on - rather than taking you away from - your home practice.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Learn a complete, step by step process to teach great classes with the 60/40 sequencing method so you can be confident that each student leaves class feeling like they got what they needed and they’re excited to come back. You’ll know exactly what to say, what to include and, most importantly, what not to include in each class.
- Practice real world teaching scenarios. Worried you’ll freeze up when it’s time to teach? You’ll get practice real situations based on 7000 teaching hours including 1-1, small groups, large groups, festivals, workshops, retreats, corporate clients, in person and online.
- Be ready to teach any student, any time, anywhere with your Class Planner, Style Guides, Mini Sequences and, most importantly, trusting your intuition with Intuitive Sequence. You’ll know how to address the 9 most common student requests while being able to adapt to any unexpected scenarios. You’ll never be unsure of what to teach.
- Learn how to start a career as a yoga teacher. Even if you have no tech skills, I'll walk you step by step through how to teach & record your classes, share them online and choose a business model so people can easily find you, take your classes, and become regular students. How much do you charge? What do you teach? Should you be on social media or have an email list? I'll share best practices to create a business doing work you love.

MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR TRAINING ($531 Value)
- Train Your Intuition 30 Day Challenge ($197 Value) All yoga teachings come from the ancient Seers of India who sat in deep meditation to access their intuition.

Until I learned that in the Vedic teachings wealth is one of the four essential aims of life, and part of the spiritual path, rather than apart from it. I'll guide you through simple exercises to find your unique, authentic way of sharing your gifts with the world and serving others with a fair energetic exchange that feels good to everyone involved (aka "good marketing!")

In this training I show you how to integrate anatomy and philosophy to confidently create efficient and empowering cues in every class you teach.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are all the logistics?
"I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed about all the things to learn. Are you sure I can do this?"
"I have a busy schedule, what if I miss a meeting or get behind? Do I have to be at every live session?"
"I just want to learn yoga for my own personal growth and not teach, is this still for me?"
Still Thinking About It?
Just one year ago Shannon was a listener of the Quietmind Yoga Podcast with zero Teacher Training experience. She joined the QYTT to learn more about her own practice and maybe teach friends and family. She did incredibly well throughout the training and improved with every practice session. I was so impressed that I hired her to teach with the Quietmind Yoga Membership! One year later she has built up a following of regular students who love her classes with a library of classes on topics she has become incredibly skillful in teaching.
Most of what Shannon is teaching is verbatim from the training that I give you inside the QYTT, and she has truly made it her own by being herself and sharing what she loves in her practice. All with the freedom to work from any time from anywhere in the world.
It's impossible to know where your yoga teaching path will lead you but there is nearly no limit to the positive impact you can have on the world once you start teaching. The positive messages I receive every week from Shannon's students are a reminder of that.

How I Became A Yoga Teacher
Want to learn more about me? Check out the Yoga Teacher Training Podcast above.
The most life-changing thing I’ve done was take a Yoga Teacher Training. I didn't take it to become a teacher, though. I was a shy, introverted kid who was frequently accused of being 'too quiet.' I took a Yoga Teacher Training to improve my yoga and meditation practice because I loved doing yoga. Along the way I realized I wanted to make this the foundation of my life rather than something I did on the side.
I've been fortunate to have incredible teachers in my life to help me see my unique gifts and bring them out. I would absolutely not be who I am today without them and it inspires me to want to help others like you find your unique gifts too.
If you feel ready to make yoga the foundation fo your life and bring out your unique gifts, I would be honored to support you in your path. If you have any questions I missed here, reach out via email at [email protected] before enrollment closes at Midnight CST, Friday Sep 24th.
