This episode is a recast of one of our most popular episodes from earlier in the year about the power of yoga teacher training.
Dustin shares a conversation with Nat Commons about how yoga teacher training (YTT) can be an incredible transformative experience. Together, Nat and Dustin run the 200-hour Yoga teacher training at Warrior One and they talk today about how YTT goes beyond the asana to provide a deeper understanding of yoga and it’s principles.
Having come from a background in juujitsu, Dustin shares how he initially joined the teacher training to learn the technical aspects of yoga and how he discovered that yoga goes far beyond just poses. Dustin shares how he learned about the eight limbs of yoga, realising that it is a real science and a way of being.
Nat and Dustin discuss their personal experiences with yoga and how it helped them reconnect with themselves and become aware of their choices in life. They also talk about the deeper aspects of yoga, such as energetics and philosophy, and how learning about them in teacher training can be a life-changing experience.
Nat shares how she reconnected with herself after feeling like a robot moving through life. She realised that yoga was more than just a physical practice and wanted to know why it made her feel euphoric. Nat and Dustin emphasise the importance of yoga as a tool for self-discovery and how it allows for self-expression and authenticity as a teacher.
Yoga teacher training creates a safe space for vulnerability and self-discovery, which leads to lifelong friendships. Through this deepening experience, it allows individuals to shed their masks and discover their values, align with their purpose, and live in a way that is authentic to themselves.
