Your 21 Day immersion is a retreat style course. This means you get to escape from the every day and steep in the teachings and in practice.
During your program you'll receive group coaching on far more than asana and the practices of yoga because yoga is your engagement with life not just what you do on the mat. And you? You can only teach who you are.
You're going to take not only an adventure outward but an adventure inward. And that's the most exciting part.
Expect daily themed asana, meditation, pranayama, personal development coaching + all the teaching you need to be a potent, intelligent, and competent teacher.
During your retreat weeks the brilliant Errin Briscoe a long time student and friend with heaps of movement training will be joining us to offer special workshops to help you shimmy and shake in playful ways far beyond traditional asana.
You can also expect to practice somatic tools like Somatic Experiencing® and Non-linear Movement® to deepen your relationship with your body.
Truly this training is like nothing else. It's comprehensive. It's non-dogmatic. And it's inclusive of the WHOLE of your humanity. No bypassing. Full love and acceptance of ALL that it is to be a human in a body on THIS planet.
If you are after a practice that isn't manufacturing meaning, that addresses the WHOLE of your humanity, and welcomes all of YOU to the dance floor of life this is for you.

Selena is a truly wonderful teacher - I can’t imagine embarking on the 200hr YTT journey with anyone else. Her teaching style, both in her yoga classes and YTT modules is concise, energetic, challenging (come prepared to work!), and fun. Selena’s assignments and in class exercises can be difficult (some physically, some mentally) but build on one another, and are incredibly helpful in establishing a strong foundation in all of the subtleties that go into teaching safely, intelligently and successfully. Whether or not you are planning on teaching following training, you will leave with wealth of knowledge about yogic philosophy, much improved sanskrit pronunciation, an understanding of anatomy as it pertains to yoga, and a yoga practice that you LOVE.
