HAUTE YOGI

09/25/2026

Yoga is a living art, and you are part of the expression.

We look forward to showing you yoga through our lens, not as the only way, but as a place to explore, question, experience, and ultimately discover how yoga comes alive through you.

It’s about giving you the knowledge, tools, experience, and confidence to discover what yoga looks like through your own lens and who you are when you step into the role of GUIDE.

Haute Yogi is an asana-forward training, which means we’re going to spend a lot of time actually working with the practice. You’ll study the postures, functional anatomy, movement, alignment, sequencing, cueing, modifications, and how to see the individual body in front of you. We’ll study the history, philosophy, breath, meditation, ethics, and deeper teachings of yoga too, because understanding where this practice comes from matters. But we’re not going to stop at learning information. We’re going to figure out what to do with it.

And you’re going to teach. Early.
You’ll practice using your voice, guiding bodies, making decisions, trying things, receiving feedback, refining, and teaching again. I don’t expect you to arrive already knowing how to do any of that. That’s why you’re here. This is the space where you get to learn.

Throughout the training, the ShapeShifter Method will invite you to look at how you see, how you speak, how you guide, and eventually how you create an experience that feels authentically yours. Because great teaching isn’t about memorizing someone else’s words or performing yoga perfectly. It’s about developing enough knowledge to understand what you’re teaching and enough trust in yourself to share it.
And somewhere inside all of that, I hope something bigger happens.

I hope you begin to see that yoga was never meant to stay on the mat. The way you listen, communicate, lead, respond, take up space, trust yourself, and show up for other people is part of the practice too. You may come into this experience because you want to become a yoga teacher, but my hope is that you leave knowing yourself a little differently.

The certification is the result.
The transformation is the goal.

That’s Haute Yogi. A Way of Life With Style.

Becoming isn’t easy.

It’ll push you to your edge and ask you to show up in ways you’ve never experienced before.

It’ll ask you to let go of who you thought you were to make room for who you actually are.

Dolly Parton said it perfectly:
“Find out who you are and do it on purpose.”

I believe yoga asks us to do exactly that.

Find yourself. Become yourself. Live it on purpose.

New yoga teachers, listen — I have something for you.

The truth is, I did not start with the perfect space, perfect sequence, perfect confidence, or perfect plan.

I just started.

I taught in parks, breweries, art studios, event spaces, living rooms, backyards — anywhere someone was willing to roll out a mat.

I taught my kids, friends, small groups, and classes in spaces that were beautiful, awkward, loud, messy, and completely imperfect.

And every single class taught me something.

There were nerves, hiccups and moments where I forgot my words.

There were times I wondered if I was doing it “right.”

But there was also joy, connection, growth, and so much love.

So here’s what I want every new yoga teacher to know:
You do not need everything to be perfect before you begin.

Begin where you are.

Teach what you know.

Let it be messy, human and teach you.

You will refine your yoga teacher voice as you go.
You will build confidence through repetition. You will understand teaching by teaching.

It will unfold.

The room does not need perfection.

It needs your presence, your care, and your courage to begin.

That is why I created the New Teacher Starter Packet — a practical support guide for new yoga teachers who want to feel more grounded, organized, and confident as they step into the room.

Inside, you’ll find checklists, reflection pages, emergency teaching reminders, cueing tips, and tools to help you trust what you already know.
Because you do not need to wait until you feel perfect.
You just need support as you begin.

Grow & Glow,
