I’ve been practicing yoga for roughly 8 years, the last 4 years being an avid practitioner and I have been teaching since Sept ‘19, creative vinyasa being my primary offering. I have completed two 200hr Yoga Teacher Trainings, first one with Brett Larkin and second with Authentic Movements, and I am currently working through my advanced 300hr (with Authentic Movements)!

Reflecting on the AM YTT Experience
| Why did you choose Authentic Movements for your YTT? | |
| Like many others, I’ve admired all of these ladies from the Instagram squares for years! As soon as the virtual opportunity presented itself, of course I said YES! It was truly the greatest gift to myself. So much has spiraled since. | |
| How did the online training platform work for you? | |
| I love learning virtually. All of my teacher trainings have been virtual and I prefer it that way. I have time to absorb before applying! | |
| How has your teaching changed since completing the AM YTT? | |
| Oh man, first of all learning COMPONENTS and MIMICS has been a game changer! This school has given me so many tools. More than my first training left me with, for sure. | |
| How have you engaged with the AM community of alums and students during and after the training? | |
| I simply LOVE the AM community! Some of us have connected for assignments, we take each other’s classes, we have lots of group chats, it’s great! | |
| What was your favorite part of the course content? | |
| This is tough. Literally all of it. I can’t pick a favorite! |
