yoga teacher training200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training
This eight-month, 200-hour training explores yoga as a comprehensive path of personal development rather than physical practice alone. Led by Brinda Kumari and Jamuna Jaya, both experienced and yoga-alliance-certified instructors, the program weaves together asana, philosophy, meditation, pranayama, and lifestyle study within a supportive community setting. Students engage with yoga's ethical foundations, the Bhagavad Gita, mantra science, and Ayurveda while developing concrete teaching skills. The curriculum emphasizes both the inner work of spiritual connection and the practical competence required to lead classes safely and progressively. Participants study yogic anatomy, sequencing, adjustments, and the ethics of teaching, grounded in the principle that personal transformation precedes skillful instruction. Upon completion of all requirements, graduates receive a 200-hour certificate and may register as an RYT 200 through Yoga Alliance.

yoga retreatMeeting Anger with Compassion
A weekend retreat at Ratna Ling that examines anger through the lens of Buddhist philosophy and embodied practice. Rather than suppressing or resisting anger, participants explore how to meet this emotion with understanding and wisdom. The retreat weaves together seated meditation, gentle accessible yoga, and subtle energy work designed to settle the nervous system and clarify perception. Two sessions of Feeding Your Demons, the five-step practice created by Lama Tsultrim Allione, invite participants to meet inner obstacles with compassion and awareness. In this tradition, a demon represents anything obstructing freedom, including the ego-fixation that keeps suffering in place. Through skillful inquiry and embodied practice, anger transforms from a poisonous mental state into a resource for wisdom and joy. Teacher Gretchen Donovan brings two decades of experience in multiple yoga lineages, along with her training as a Vajrayana Buddhist practitioner.
