Yoga isn’t for fitness, it’s for insight. It’s not for checking out, it’s for checking in.

Are you craving a practice anchored in ancient tradition that nourishes the whole of you?

This program draws from the wisdom of Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, mindfulness practices, personal development coaching, and modern movement research to offer a yoga practice that honors the body without being overly invested in the body.

This training is an invitation into a practice that equally nourishes the heart and invites healing to the mind. A practice that is playful, explorative, and non-dogmatic.

Honoring that there are are many lineages, many ways to be, teach, live, and seek. All are welcome here.

The WeEvolve Method™ will teach you a range of practices from vinyasa yoga to restorative sequencing, meditation, breathwork, and other practices to enrich your experience on and off the mat.

Ultimately we don’t do yoga to be good at yoga. We do yoga to better our lives.

Whether you are intending to teach or just craving more depth in your personal practice, this training is a transformational experience that will teach you to ask questions, to stay connected to your inner compass, and to lean into practice.

Ultimately practice is the teacher.

Our training is a non-dogmatic approach to yoga that invites you to weave a narrative all your own.

Praise from Alumni

 

“Selena will inspire, educate, and empower you to pursue and uncover your authentic self. She is not your teacher if you wish to be coddled or spoon fed. She will provoke fundamental questioning that invites you to strip away the self limiting stories, practices, and habits that hold you back from your greatest potential. Go to her class, shake the dust, and breathe life into your dry bones."

"I've had the privilege of being a student on Selena's 200hr Evolve Method Online training and would recommend it to anyone seeking a practical, flexible path to becoming a potent teacher or simply wishing to explore their own personal development or deepen their physical and spiritual practices and knowledge. It's no exaggeration to say that there is so much depth and scope to the content available to students - in such an accessible, convenient format - that it's hard to believe this training is not a 300 or 500hr program. A lot of 200hr yoga teacher trainings tend to emphasise or prioritise specific areas of study that reflect the teacher's knowledge and area of expertise. It is incredibly rare to find a teacher, like Selena Garefino, who possess such a profound understanding of functional mobility, yoga, breath work, and meditation - and her ability to transmit this knowledge to her students is unique. I know of very few teachers or 200hr teacher trainings around the world that can combine modern movement practices and scientific research-backed methods with such a profound, scholarly respect and exploration of ancient teachings and yoga philosophy to create an enriching educational experience for a student of any level. The fact that this depth of training is available in an online format, that is both convenient and rigorous , makes it an incredibly rare opportunity for students - and even qualified teachers - to develop potent new teaching and life skills, create new habits and feel encouraged and supported to realise their potential in sharing their unique medicine with the world. If you want a really solid grounding in philosophy, anatomy, movement, science and spirituality - and to be able to study in a way that works for you while feeling supported at all times, then I would recommend this training to you."

Praise from Alumni

 

"If you aren't ready to have your life changed, don't study with Selena. She has a rare gift of glimpsing her students' highest potential and constructing an environment to slowly draw it out. You will learn Anatomy and philosophy from someone who is deeply passionated about them and it shows. You WILL be inspired. You WILL leave equipped with the tools and insight to transform your life. You will also learn, inside and out and in every direction, an intricate, many-faceted and carefully considered perspective of the yoga tradition from an insanely experienced student herself. The whole idea of Selena's trainings are to integrate and assimilate the method because when one embodies yoga from the inside out, the teaching takes care of itself. Selena doesn't just teach yoga, she lives yoga, and at the end of your training with her, you can too."

 

Christine

Praise from Alumni

 

"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."
