YTT Update

Hello All!

Thank you so much to those who donated to my yoga teacher training. Fyi, I raised about $700 though the internet, which doesn't cover the entire program, but offsets it enough for me to definitely be able to do it. Yay!

Last weekend was the first yoga teacher training weekend and it was AMAZING. It's two 25-hour weekends a month through December + a retreat. We of course have to practice everyday and attend class with one of the instructors at least two days week (not a problem as most of the people in the program are regulars).

I entered the weekend relatively stressed, wondering if I'd have time to pull this off + maintain my usual rigorous schedule. Not only did the first YTT almost completely de-stress me, it definitely helped me work out a few things that were going on with work and life in general.

The instructors (Paul Manza, Leigh Evans, and Summer Quashie) are all fantastic and I knew them before the training. I am in awe of Greenhouse Holistic in general. Greenhouse started as a community based studio that wanted to keep yoga reasonable to the community of Williamsburg and have now expanded to 3 locations. I think it's $35/month unlimited for the first month if you sign up with a friend right now. So awesome! The other folks in the program seem great as well, I knew a few of them the studio.

I went on tour in CA last week for
Family Of The Year's first ever tour. I'm super psyched to have a deeper yoga practice for traveling purposes, so it was a great test to dive right into a mini-tour sleeping in an RV with 8 of my new favorite people ever. I managed to practice every day, even i it was short and sweet. I have to teach once a week and Brent Freany who plays bass in the band was my first student. You did great, Bubba! :) Fun fact: Brent is a killer web designer. Check out his skillz and hit him up if you need a gorgeous new website: http://www.product01.org/

I have 25 more hours this week and am feeling the same twang of stress about the time commitment, but it's definitely worth it and I know I won't regret it on Monday.

Hope everyone is having a great week!

Thanks again.

Much Love,
Em Wizzle
