HIBS Structural Integration & Yoga

It’s a very strange time we’re living in…

I’m looking at some devotional artwork, and all of a sudden I have this thought, “is this AI?”…. People who make art are posting photos of their process just to prove they made it themselves, because it’s getting harder to know what’s real anymore.

My feed is full of friends asking where they can get a job. People who are very highly qualified and have been working in their field for decades are struggling to find work, and on top of that, everything is getting so expensive...

We’re all talking about how quickly things are changing, and what that means for our children. Being “left behind” by technology seems to be the predominant marketing pitch, and conversations are centered around the jobs being replaced by AI. Everyone is on their screens spinning, getting more anxious, insecure, and disconnected…

And yet, when things get weird and the economy struggles, people in the business of raising consciousness get busier.

I’m getting inquiries almost daily about Structural Integration and yoga teacher training. That’s because when people are really struggling, they start looking for things that really work. They get bored with taking pain relievers and start seeking out the root cause of the pain.

With all the artificial intelligence, anxiety, insecurity, and struggle… We are all deeply craving soul-level impact, and the infinitely invaluable connection to life-force energy and divine intelligence….

We want something real.

This is the best time to double down on your spiritual advancement and cut through the nonsense… to immerse yourself fully in yoga and allow these very meaningful, time-tested teachings to permeate all aspects of your life… to invest in cultivating a skill set that makes you irreplaceable in your radically human authenticity, and grounds you in the truth of what matters most. If you’re feeling called to the Yoga Teacher Training experience, come to our info session in June. We are so excited to hold you and encourage the beautiful potential you hold.

200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training - Fall 2026

I dare you to dive in a bit (and it may be uncomfortable)…

Get ready... are you happy?

Those urgent and important things that constantly demand attention can easily become sneaky habits, or a whole unintentional lifestyle.

All of a sudden, one day you wake up and realize that you’re dreading it… this isn’t the life you signed up for, and changing course on this runaway train seems like an impossible task. Where do you even start?

When I was 5, I played on chairs with dolls & teddy bears pretending I was saving them from hot lava… without a doubt I wanted to help people, it was in my blood. I found my dad’s yoga books and I was enamored by the pictures of super focused people turning themselves into pretzels.

Despite the clear path, my journey to becoming a yoga teacher and yoga teacher trainer was NOT a straight line. It led me through stocking shelves at Party City, waiting tables at IHOP, I was even a professional opera singer at one point.

Even after I “arrived” the detours kept coming…. getting divorced (twice), running a brick & mortar business, kids…. It takes much refocusing and many internal reality checks to get in alignment with your purpose and stay there.

So here’s my invitation… take a moment to sincerely ask yourself… “am I happy?”

And something feels off, then please consider taking yoga teacher training with Erin & I in September… because if there’s one thing yoga is reallllllyyy good at, it’s alignment.

QUIT NUMBING! STOP AVOIDING! SHOW UP!

The world is on fire and we’re supposed to carry on like nothing is happening…

Everything in our conditioning, from our routines, to reinforcement from our environment and the people in our lives, down to the subconscious tapes we play in our minds, is constantly pulling us in to more of the same.

More hitting the snooze button at 6am, more doom scrolling, more coffee, more getting ready for work, more asking ChatGPT, more superfluous online shopping… you hit the pillow exhausted, engage in even more doom scrolling… copy, paste, repeat

All the while, this incessant little voice inside is saying “there’s something else for you…” And yet, you’re too busy, too distracted, too anxious to break through.

There is another way.

The eternal Vedic teachings contain transcendental knowledge that puts into perspective what we are living, and the yoga practice trains your attention and your nervous system, so that you can actually show up, and meet life with authenticity.

This isn’t just a “try it, and maybe it will work for you…” situation. Yoga is proven. It is a science. You do the things, you get the results. Period.

And when you have lived the truth of that, you will experience the undeniable desire to teach others do the same.

The HIBS 200-Hour Foundational Yoga Teacher Training is not just another cookie cutter YTT you buy at Walmart so you can get a certificate and start teaching yoga at LVAC. Don’t get me wrong, I started my career teaching yoga at the gym, it’s actually a great place to start…

What I mean is this program is for you if you’re curious what happens when you really immerse yourself in the teachings and go beyond yoga as being fun workout where you go upside down and wear cool leggings.

Who would you be if you actually give yourself permission to experience the potency of these very deep soul level teachings? If you commit to truly embodying the teachings and mastering the practice?

And then yes, teach at LVAC…

Hi friends! The incomparable .wisdomkeeper is coming to offer a Human Design 101 workshop at .sanctuary next week Saturday 9:30-11am.

If you have an interest, I highly recommend. Brandy moved to New Mexico recently, so it’s a treat to have her in town presenting 💓

WHAT ARE YOU AVOIDING? STOP RUNNING & SHOW UP!

Weird times we’re living in, no wonder most of us are living numb.... scrolling mindlessly on our phones, spending money on things we don’t need, and running around chasing our tails getting nowhere fast.

This 200 Hour Foundational Yoga Teacher Training program is an emergency cord, a lifeline for you to stop letting the noise distract you, to wake up and self-regulate, so that you can integrate this very real and, sometimes, very heavy experience of being an eternal spirit soul experiencing this crazy material world from inside a very temporary physical body.

In this program, we train your attention, your nervous system, and your voice so that you can truly connect to the truth of what matters most and meet your life with authenticity. You’ll learn everything you need to know to be an incredible yoga teacher, but more importantly, you’ll learn how to focus, breathe, and feel, to choose your lived experience with intention.

You’ll leave with:

-Self-trust in your unshakable ability to deal with real-world stress

-Aligned action over old patterns, negative self-talk, self-deprecating habits, and avoidance

-Courage to be happy, feel deeply, connect with others, and stay present no matter what
