“The Point Reyes Yoga Teacher Training was an incredible, life-changing experience. Amanda, Nick, and Jason created an amazingly safe, supportive, and transformational space for learning both the physical poses of yoga as well as the deeper philosophical and spiritual aspects. I highly recommend the training for anyone interested in teaching or simply deepening their own practice. You’ll come out of the training with a better understanding of yourself and the practice of yoga.”

“My October 2020 Yoga Teacher Training with Amanda and MC Yogi was magical.  I loved every day with these two amazing teachers and my incredible fellow students.  Amanda and MC Yogi have a deep and sacred respect for the origins of yoga and they gave so much of themselves to make their training exceptional.  I am grateful for their devotion, knowledge, love, humility, humor and grace ... they shared it ALL with us.  The training itself ... the study of yogic texts, history and philosophy; the daily practice of asana, mantra and meditation; the deep dive into understanding yoga postures and anatomy; the guest speakers and “off-campus” adventures; the art and the stories; the music and the dancing; the regular opportunities to learn and practice teaching yoga sequences ... all of these things and MORE left me transformed.  I met the most wonderful people, I learned so much, and I had so much FUN!   And the magic isn’t over!  I continue to “unpack” and integrate lessons and joyful memories each day here at home in my “real life.”  If you are feeling called to do this, do not hesitate to apply.  You will be one of the lucky ones if you get to be a part of their next training.  I would absolutely do it again!”

“If you take this leap, you’re going to do a lot of yoga, under the instruction of artistic people who’ve devoted their lives to sharing the benefits of it.

Yes!  It’s an in-depth study of the asanas, anatomy, meditation, philosophy, and the sutras, but also so much more.  There’s art, music, dancing, nature, healthy eating, and exercises in opening your heart.  Amanda, Nick, Jason and the special guest speakers were amazing guides though this life changing journey. Undeniably an individual experience, but we were also prepared for the creation of a new groove, and a collective connection and bond evolved, that changed us.

It’s not always easy!  You’ll be put into teaching situations early, which might seem awkward, but immediately the learning begins.  We were guided to lean in, and saw not just the benefits of discipline, but also exposed individual hurdles and strengths.  Whatever holds you back from expressing your authentic self in this life, usually related.  You’re encouraged to share your unique voice, and If you need it, you’re going to learn the importance of love, the importance of including yourself, and discernment, especially of ego.  You will see “when it’s not all about you” amazing things can be created and shared. 

You will feel the benefits of the yoga, and the yoga will do the heavy lifting for you.  You move on to being better at owning the energy that you are, and sharing what we all are.

At times this leap might feel like free fall, but you’ll be surrounded by a group of people who will show you that you have wings.

Any insecurities you might have about doing the training melt away quickly, and it is certainly in no way a competition.   Observing your group you’ll see all different levels of skill, flexibility and experience, so you’ll fit right in wherever you are.  Surprising strengths and weaknesses become apparent, and serve to create a unique collective, learning and growing as much as it can.

After the training your awareness of the exchange of energy leans towards a high vibration, and personality, my feet grip the earth differently now.  I can also now see my physical body, ego, inner child and higher self sitting quietly together for the first time.  The vail between the physical and spiritual world becomes much more transparent, and also the power of laughter, and sovereignty of tears. You will leave confident in teaching, better at sharing the benefits of yoga, and better at owning the energy that you are.  

Do it! Take the leap! Jump!! It’s magical. 

By the way, Point Reyes is a beautiful self contained community with a local farmer’s market, community garden, fabulous shops and restaurants, and idyllic hiking near the ocean.  On the days of the program, there is just enough time in the mornings and evenings to enjoy!”

“Many thanks to you both for creating an amazing experience. Sharing your wisdom, your love and your beautiful home. I’ve learned, I’ve laughed and cried. This sacred time with you has been an inspiration to keep growing. Much love and respect.”

“Thank you for your courage, and for teaching us the way back home. I will carry you always in my heart and be forever grateful. ”

“Your beautiful souls brought so much joy, lightness, and radiance to this training. Thank you for choosing the path of your hearts, and shining your presence and love into all you do. Beyond grateful for our experience together.”

“Wow. You two together (and with Jason too) have given us the ultimate gift of seeing our own inner greatness. Thank you for opening your home, your hearts, and your minds to the guidance of your students and offering us the gift that is yoga.”

“There are no words to express how amazing and powerful this journey was. Thank you for creating such a rich experience.”

“I am eternally grateful to you both. I never could have guessed how much growth I would go through on this journey. I admire and respect how you two have chosen to spend your energy in this life.”

“Wow. Magic. A master class in love and energy. Forever grateful. Forever changed.”

“I was surprised to find myself teaching yoga so soon after this teacher training, and what a relief it was to feel so prepared! In 200 hours, a scaffolding was gifted to us - a strong, inspired scaffolding built on experience and commitment that will undoubtedly withstand the test of time.”

“Having previously completed a 200 YTT over the course of 6 months, I was apprehensive about my ability to take in the amount of information I knew that would be presented in such a short amount of time. Amanda assured me, 200 hours in 30 days was completely doable and that I would love the curriculum she and MC were planning. I can only now discern the breadth of my YTT experience as “Perfection”. Looking back, the training was nothing less than incredible. MC brings out JOY in the practice and Amanda’s knowledge and depth of philosophy, history, the sutras and importance of personal connection to “The practice” kept us disciplined toward the end result.
I know for sure that I’ll always and forever have Pt. Reyes and this experience with Amanda and MC etched in my heart and mind. If you get the opportunity, leap openheartedly toward this training.
