Being a self taught yogi comes with a lot of challenges and requires so much zeal and determination to excel.
As a self taught yogi, you have to learn poses for yourself,practice without assistance and most times your alignment is out of place.
The past few weeks here in Lagos for Yoga teacher training has been so amazing
I had to unlearn my wrong alignments, wrong attitudes and learn to be comfortable with male yoga teachers
assisting me during practice...
Also, i have learned to write good meditations for my clients and students, i learned that my energy as a teacher is not just for me alone but, also for my students.
Personally, i have learned how strong i am, and my personal practice has improved so well.
Yoga teacher training got me learning new and challenging poses and my upper body strength is so on point.
Socially, i have learned to be more confident speaking to my colleagues and clients, i have also learned to share my feelings and stay true to myself which is so empowering.
One of the highlight for me is meeting different yogis from Nigeria, Uganda, Ghana and Sierra Leone all with different skills and experiences.
Its been such an awesome experience for me, one that will last a long time and i am so grateful...
