About the SomaSpirit Facilitators
Can I take a yoga class with you before the training?
Absolutely! Robyn teaches at Local Health Integrative Clinic in East Vancouver, BC. If you are on the coast, Andrew teaches out of Elements Movement in Powell River, but also online at Elements Movement Online.
Are you registered with the Yoga Alliance?
Yes, we are a 200-hour registered yoga school with the Yoga Alliance. Upon completion of the program, you can apply to become a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200) with the Yoga Alliance.
What experience do I need to start the YTT?
Very little! We have had people join our program after their first yoga class, and others who have been practicing for years! We encourage everyone to know how to move through a basic sun salutation before Level 1...other than that, come as you are!
I'm not sure that I want to teach, but I want to go deeper
Many of our graduates do not teach after the program but find so many benefits in other aspects of their lives. Throughout the program you will deepen your practice, your knowledge of your body, your communication skills and so much more!
