Decolonized Yoga Teacher Training

---

 This Yoga Alliance-approved training is designed to free and decolonize the mind, offering a clearer path forward in life, career, and relationships. Rooted in the wisdom of ancient civilizations that viewed the world through a similar lens of balance and harmony, this deep dive into physical and mental alignment goes beyond a certification. You’ll leave not only with the credentials but with a profound love for yourself and a deeper understanding of your true potential. This is an inclusive training where to be decolonized is to love who you are. Love is acceptance.
