The Funny Thing About Yoga

YTT: Our Experience, Pros & Cons, and Future Plans

Episode No. 25

In this weeks episode Giana and Bradshaw talk ALL things yoga teacher trainings. They talk about their first experience in a 200 Hour, the different formats of trainings, the lack of regulations and yoga alliance standards, and so much more. With a 200 Hour Yoga teacher program of their own coming up in Nicaragua 2024, they explain what students can expect, as well as acknowledge that trainings are not for everyone. Through listing a few of the pros and cons of taking a yoga teacher training, they hope to be transparent about the experience and help curious listeners decide if its a path they want to follow. And as always, they will make you laugh with stories about having a baby, being a germaphobe, and a fun round of cancel, explore, commit. Thank you for listening to the podcast and helping to spread the word!
