“Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness.” – Anne Frank

These are the types of people you want in your circle, in your tribe, as your colleagues, as your teachers, as your friends. Seek character and goodness. 🌟

Congratulations to the Class of 2026......our 20th graduating group!

YTTJourney

Powerful energy 🌟

To witness our students becoming teachers is an honor and a privilege.
Because this is not just about becoming a teacher. It’s about building our courage, increasing our strengths, owning our power. It’s about finding our voice and being true to ourselves. Then we get to pay it forward.

While challenges and pain will always be part of our existence, we get to teach students to stay open, no matter what happens. When you stay open, no matter what happens, you get love, enthusiasm, excitement, and energy!

Join us for our next training on January 30th 💪🏽🌟❤️

As we welcome the new year, it’s the perfect time to ask: What do I want to cultivate? Perhaps you’re curious about interoception-the ability to interpret what is happening inside your body. You can think of it as your body’s “inner listening system”.

This is just one example of many topics we explore in YTTC.

Yoga teacher training offers space to slow down, get clear, and build a strong foundation— on the mat and in life. What a generous gift to give yourself in 2026! Our spring cohort begins January 30th, sign up by January 20th to secure your spot!

Stretch into your future in 2026!

Expand into your greatness and be a part of the Collective. Your journey and training begins with us on January 30. 🌟

The YTT Collective looks good on you! (And it feels amazing too!) 🙌🏼

Every time we meet it is full of learning, laughter, and love ❤️

Our students rave about all of the amazing Studios that we partner with, and they are so excited that they get to take free classes with our partner studios during training. Add that we have spectacular faculty and no wonder that you will find our training may be the top one in the Atlanta area, per Yoga Alliance reviews.

Our next training begins in January and there is no better gift that you could give yourself. The gift of a lifetime! 🎁

A New Chapter for The YTT Collective

Big news, friends! 📣

After 11 beautiful years of leading our 5-star Yoga Teacher Training, I am deeply honored to pass the torch to someone extraordinary.

In 2014, during my very first training, one student stood out—her presence was radiant, her practice embodied grace, strength, compassion, humility, and wisdom. That student is Ginny Washburne.

It is with joy and excitement that I announce Ginny will now step into leadership (and ownership) of the YTT Collective. She will bring her own unique style, while carrying forward the qualities, values, and standard of excellence that have always defined our training.

Please help me celebrate and welcome Ginny Washburne as she leads the next generation of yoga teachers!

A Note from Ginny

I had the privilege of meeting Kim in the summer of 2014 after seeing an ad in a local magazine for her YTT program. My husband and I had just moved from Chicago to Atlanta with our three young sons, and I was searching for a fresh start after stepping away from full-time work.

I signed up for her yoga teacher training program and was immediately struck by her deep knowledge, peaceful presence, and generous spirit. I learned not only how to teach yoga, but also how to regulate my nervous system, breathe better, and feel more at home in my own body.

Over the past eleven years, Kim has become both a mentor and a dear friend, profoundly shaping my personal practice and professional path. I’ve had the privilege of teaching in Atlanta and Orange County, CA, alongside some truly incredible instructors.

My teaching continues to evolve and grow as a lifelong student of this beautiful practice.
Today, I am deeply honored and humbled to share that I will be continuing the program she created—a program I believe in wholeheartedly and have witnessed transform the lives of so many, including my own.

With immense gratitude, I look forward to leading the YTT Collective, and carrying forward Kim’s legacy of connection, community, and growth.

Chair yoga enhances accessibility, allowing those with limited mobility to participate in poses that strengthen and stretch the body. 🪑

Also, chair yoga promotes improved posture, balance, and relaxation, making it a beneficial practice for people of all ages and fitness levels. 🙌🏼

✨ Restorative Yoga is the ultimate practice of rest and renewal. Through gentle, supported postures and mindful breathing, this practice activates the body’s relaxation response, easing stress, calming the nervous system, and creating space for deep healing. Unlike more active styles of yoga, restorative invites you to slow down, release tension, and reconnect with your inner stillness. It’s not just about stretching the body—it’s about restoring balance to mind, body, and soul.

🌿 In yoga, the true magic often happens in the spaces of stillness and breath. Breathwork (pranayama) calms the nervous system, eases stress, and anchors us in the present moment, while stillness gives the body and mind time to integrate, restore, and reset. Together, they create balance — shifting us from constant “doing” into simply being. Even a few minutes of mindful breathing and quiet can bring clarity, peace, and renewed energy into your day. ✨💚

✨ Yoga isn’t just about stretching the body — it’s a powerful tool for calming and strengthening the nervous system. Through mindful movement, breathwork, and meditation, yoga activates the parasympathetic “rest and digest” response, lowers stress hormones, and helps regulate the vagus nerve for deeper relaxation and emotional balance. Over time, this practice builds resilience, reduces anxiety, and supports better sleep, focus, and overall wellbeing — helping your body and mind find harmony in a busy world. 🌿🧘
