cultivating the heart of a warrior
October 2025 - January 2026
200 hour MistYoga teacher training experience
“There will never be a storm that can wash the path from my feet, the direction from my heart, the light from my eyes, or the purpose from this life. I know that I am untouchable to the forces as long as I have a direction, an aim, a goal:
To serve, to love, and to give.
Strength lies in the magnification of the secret qualities of my own personality, my own character and though I am only a messenger, I am me.”
~ Swami Satyananda Saraswati (disciple of Sri Swami Sivananda Saraswati)
