Are you feeling stuck in a job that just doesn't seem to fit? Do you feel like there is something more that you need to explore in your life to honor an inner passion? Do you think there's something more to life than what you're experiencing? Do you find yourself practicing yoga six days a week just to cope with the challenges?
I was once in your shoes, feeling trapped and uninspired by my daily grind. But then, I had an incredible "aha" moment. I realized that I didn't have to settle for a life that didn't align with my passions. And that's when I discovered Yoga Teacher Training (YTT). -- Shelle |

YTT Love
'Mountain Song Yoga School is not any yoga training, it is the real deal. I had no idea just how powerful and transformative this training would be for me. Unlike other options, MSY is only one of three 200 YTT’s in America teaching Kriya Yoga. Kriya yoga’s lineage goes back to the Yoga Sutras, written down by Patanjali thousands of years ago. In more modern times here in America brought by Yogananda.
Shelle and her dynamic team curate a combination of detailed breakdowns of each posture, anatomy, philosophy, mudras (hand holds), pranayama and mantras. Each class was filled with deep knowledge, from meditation, Kriya, Kundalini, Energy Medicine yoga, hatha, Vinyasa, Himalayan Hatha, Yin and Restorative Yoga.
Easy step by step guidance on sequencing, cueing, understanding the intentions of each posture and variations. I learned confidently how to prepare and plan for a meaningful yoga class taught from a place of authenticity. Utilizing a wide range of knowledge gained from my training here, I could step into the seat of the teacher in many different style classes.
This sacred training is invaluable to those who want to teach. Equally for those ready to obtain personal growth and development.
I am not the same woman who started this class. Warning: This training will TRANSFORM you. I have gained a daily personal practice, calm, confidence, strength, stress-management, better communication with myself and others.
A community. An expanded heart tapping into a true understanding of love. All the edges fell away, and left was a beautiful
empowered woman ready to embrace a new beginning.
I was lucky to find Mountain Song Yoga School in the diluted web of trainings. It is pure, authentic, from the source yoga. Usually only found in India, Mountain Song brings to us this powerful lineage of Kriya Yoga. I have a new community of people and feel supported to dream big.'
