Hello, I am new to the YJ online community and excited to have this resource of fellow teachers, students, and enthusiasts to learn from. I thought it would be fun to put together a class that honors or celebrates the sun. I know, we have sun salutations, but beyond that... does anyone have any idea for poses, sequences, meditations, etc that would fit with this theme?

Oh, My gosh, that sounds so great!
I can't wait to hear all about it. You will love it.

8 days to go before my 1st weekend of training!! I've got so many mixed feelings right now. I think this may be the most intense training of any kind I've ever taken since rowing, lifeguarding and figure skating. I hope I have the stength to make it through the 1st weekend's 21 hours of training. I'm thrilled that Mirabai Ceiba will be performing right after my 2nd class and Gurucharan Singh Khalsa will be teaching a 19 hour workshop the following weekend! I can't wait to share my experiences with you.
Good Luck to all.

Hi fifi, it is such a personal choice so good luck with whatever you decide. I've read an article stating that the community though pushing against the licensing and registry requirement, most think it will eventually be a standard for the teachers-to-be. Since the program can be costly, maybe think about if you should invest it by going thru a program that is YA registered.
It is def. one of the most important question to ask of the program director on their stance for this issue.
Good luck.

I am thinking about taking a yoga teacher training course at a wonderful studio, but they are not registered with the yoga alliance. Should I be concerned about this?
