FAQ's about any trainings & courses.

What if I'm the least experienced person in the room? You won't be — but even if you were, it wouldn't matter. This isn't about what you already know. It's about what you're curious about. We've had complete beginners and 20-year practitioners in the same group and they both got something totally different and equally valuable out of it. You just need to be willing to show up.

Is this going to be too woo-woo? We get it. We explore chakras and reiki and mantras — and we also dig into neuroscience and nervous system regulation and the actual physiology behind why these practices work. Everything here is grounded in both tradition and science. You'll never be asked to believe anything. You'll just be invited to experience it and decide for yourself.

What if I get emotional? That's not a problem for anyone. The problem for all of us is when we don't let ourselves EVER get emotional. Bottled up things explode. When you slow down and get still, things surface. That's how we let go of stuck energy. We don't turn it into group therapy. We just let it be what it is.

What if I miss one of the weekends? Life happens and we plan for that. You'll have the manual, the recordings and the group to lean on. Missing a session doesn't mean you're behind — it just means you'll catch up in your own way. We'll help.

I already take classes at the studio — how is this different? Classes give you the practice. This gives you the understanding behind the practice. Plus a deeper connection to the practice, to yourself and to others. We explore why certain breathwork practices calm the nervous system better than others, how to build your own flow based on your unique preferencs and you'll go deeper into meditation, energy work and philosophy than any single class can. And we'll do all of this... together. Think of it as the difference between following a recipe and actually learning how to cook.

Is this a teacher training? No. This is a completely standalone experience. No tests, no teaching requirements, no certification pressure. Some people do go on to our teacher training afterward, but most don't — and they'll still tell you this was one of the most valuable things they've ever done for themselves. You're here for you.

What if I'm bad at meditation? There's no such thing. If your brain won't stop talking, welcome to the club. We call that butterfly brain... fully creative with lots of ideas. BTW, That's everyone's brain. We don't ask you to empty your mind. We share actual tools and techniques that slow it down not stress it out. Most people are shocked at how quickly it clicks once you know how it actually works.

Will I have to share personal stuff with the group? Never more than you want to. 'Pass' is always an option. There are reflective exercises and group conversations, but you always get to choose how much you share. Some people are open books from day one. Some people mostly listen. Both are equally welcome and equally valuable to the group. We make a concerted effort to make sure everyone has a chance to be seen and heard if they choose... and that no one monopolizes the cohort.

How much time does this take outside the weekends? One yoga class a week and one live Zoom meditation — that's it. There's no homework, no reading assignments, no tests. If you want to practice more on your own with the tools we give you, amazing. If the weekends and the weekly touchpoints are all you do, that's the point. The toolkit is yours either way.

Can I just do this without going on to the full teacher training? Absolutely. The Toolkit is a complete experience on its own. Four months, fully self-contained. If you decide later that you want to keep going into the 200-hour training, the door is open — but there's zero expectation or pressure to do that. Most people do this just for themselves and that's exactly what it's designed for.
