300-Hour Yoga Teacher Training
|
We've poured our love into this 300 hour training, and our aim was to create something unique that you can't find anywhere else in the world. We also wanted to create a dynamic, approachable training with the focus of self realization. If you don't have a deep understanding of the teachings within yourself, how can you communicate that to others? Using the ancient technologies of Kriya, mantra, Energy Medicine Yoga, sacred rituals and more, we've been able to uplift ourselves to higher levels of awareness... and we want you to have the same access to this sacred technologies.
The setting for these modules was also important to us. Our first two modules are completely online, there's a variety of self-paced work, an Energy Medicine Yoga training at the Whitefish studio, and the final three in-person modules are set to be physically in person. It's important to us that these modules are experienced close to nature, in and around the Busby's off-grid yurt in Whitefish. As we experience the seasons together, you'll learn yoga as it pairs with outdoor hikes as well as cozying up by the fire and discussing the true meaning of life — so that you can realize it for yourself, within yourself. Only then will you leave this training with a newfound zest for life, and a fresh outlook on teaching yoga, however you do that in your own life. It's not a requirement to want to teach yoga publicly to take this course... all we ask is for an open mind and a willing heart. |

Meet Your Teachers
Mollie Busby
E-RYT 500 and owner of Yoga Hive Montana
Mollie Busby is a driven entrepreneur with the spirit of a summer camp counselor and a kind, midwestern smile. Mollie is a seasoned yoga and meditation teacher and off-grid home builder with her husband, Sean. Although the pair now calls Alaska their home, the have deep roots in the Flathead Valley, and Mollie commutes back to Montana to manage her three yoga studios called Yoga Hive.
Wherever they are, the Busbys choose to live close to the land off-the-grid and pursue their life’s work. The pair started Riding On Insulin, which Mollie ran as Executive Director for 7 years, until Sean took over in 2017. It was then that Mollie shifted much of her focus to Yoga Hive, and now, to Yoga Hive Studios, taking the brand beyond Montana. Yoga Hive is known for its inviting vibe, friendly instructors, and willingness to show anyone that yoga is for everybody and every body.
Regardless of the method, Mollie sees her purpose on this planet as cultivating community in small groups of women — whether in a yoga retreat setting or during the 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings she runs in Montana, Colorado and beyond. She enjoys spending time outdoors skiing in the winter, hiking in the summer, and playing with their dogs all year round: Daisy (a Weimaraner), Glacier (Border Collie/Great Pyrenees Mix), Milo (husky/Shepard mix), Powder (Alaskan Husky) and Coldfoot, or Coldie for short (Alaskan Husky).
She and Sean have built a dynamic off-the-grid homestead in the heart of Whitefish, Montana, that’s been featured on HGTV, the DIY Network, Discovery Channel, Yahoo News, Daily Mail, and more. They've also built off-grid homesteads in Homer, Alaska and now, Arctic Hive, Alaska.
Hailing originally from Wisconsin, Mollie brings to Montana her warm, midwestern hospitality mixed with a wide range of yoga training. Her teaching draws inspiration from the Baptiste Yoga community, Unnata Aerial Yoga, and a mix of Tantric Kriya and mantra-based meditation from Sattva Yoga Academy at the foothills of the Himalayas in India.
This unique mix gives her classes a magical feel, with a love for teaching the basics to anyone willing to learn, layered with a profound gift of teaching for transformation.

Cathy Connors
E-RYT 500, International Yoga Teacher, and founder of Awake Yoga
Dr. Cathy "Anjali" Connors loves yoga and has dedicated her life to sharing this powerful practice with others. She started her career as a psychologist and began her spiritual journey in her early 20’s. But it wasn’t until 2009 that she started teaching yoga and the practice “took over her life”. She took multiple vinyasa teacher trainings, opened a studio, and based on an intuitive hit traveled to India in 2014 for a kundalini teacher training with Kia Miller. It was there that she the first locked eyes with Master teacher Anand Mehrotra - tears filled her eyes and she knew she was home. Since that first visit she has traveled back to India 6+ times to study the powerful practices of Sattva Yoga.
Her greatest joy is to teach. She loves combining the freedom of Vinyasa Flow with the power and grace of the Sattva Yoga Kriyas. She never quite knows what will arise when she teaches, but she trusts in the beauty of the moment, knowing it will be authentic, raw, connected, and full of grace.
Anjali runs yoga teacher trainings, teaching yoga classes, and is a practicing psychologist in California. She is a proud momma of two growing boys.
