John Schumacher on the Yoga of Teacher Trainings
Friday, March 4th, 2011
This month’s featured offering at iHanuman is part of a series of discussions offered by our very own John Schumacher. Click here to listen to the featured audio, or click here for a comprehensive listing of John’s interviews and writings at iHanuman.
Each quarter John hosts a free discussion at his Unity Woods Yoga Center in Bethesda, Maryland. This month the topic of discussion is the prevalence of Yoga Teacher Trainings and how to navigate these potentially murky waters. John references his own journey to become a teacher as well as a rather egregious example of a 5 hour workshop he came across which claimed to teach you everything there is to know about yoga and yoga therapy. John’s examples remind us of how precious this gift of yoga is as it offers us an avenue for self-discovery.
