When it’s done well, teaching yoga cuts to the core: it builds community, confidence and decency.  You connect with people by helping them help themselves.  Teaching yoga isn’t about making students follow you, it’s about guiding them by helping them reconnect with their bodies and their lives, helping them heal, stretch, strengthen and breathe.  Life is stressful.  Teaching yoga makes life better for your students and for you. 

I used to do marketing for Fortune 500 Companies.  It was stressful, invisible and miserable work.  The best part of my week was taking yoga.  Yoga helps rearrange your body and your perspective.  It helps you focus on what’s important in life: you.  So I reassessed.  I took stock of where my life was and where I wanted it to go.  With that clarity, that focus and with a healthy body, you can direct your energies and talents to accomplish wonderful things like sharing health, peace and wellness with others.  I opened Hot Yoga Valencia.

Personally, teaching yoga is a better way to live.

Hot Yoga Valencia’s intensive teacher training, this summer, can help you become a dynamic yoga instructor by improving the quality of your life and others’ lives both mentally and physically.  

Noriko Moser, a seasoned Yoga Alliance certified instructor, leads this exciting teacher training journey.  A former professional ballerina and Broadway performer who began practicing yoga 20 years ago, Moser transitioned from coaching young dancers to teaching yoga because she felt passionate about teaching a form of movement that all ages, body types and fitness levels could practice and enjoy.  Moser’s warm, thorough and professional approach make her highly sought after as an inspiring hot yoga and power vinyasa instructor. Now at Hot Yoga Valencia, Moser continues to teach yoga exclusively and travels nationwide to mentor aspiring yoga instructors through her dynamic, energized teacher trainings.

The goal of this teacher training, over seven weekends beginning Saturday, July 22, is to provide a comprehensive experience where you will learn how to teach hot yoga through posture-specific workshops, anatomy study and proven teaching-technique exercises.  You’ll also realize that by learning to teach yoga, you are simultaneously exploring and discovering more about your own yoga practice.  Not only will you learn how to motivate, inspire and encourage students, you will be ignited and inspired yourself.  

I invite you to join us.  Be well.  Live well.  

Christopher Kashap is co-director of Hot Yoga Valencia located at 25520 Avenue Stanford, Valencia, 91355.
