Mary Jo Fetterly, Trevor Yelich, and Ally Bogard just completed the final official level 3 teacher training under the name of Trinity Yoga as the teacher training company switches to Gaiatri Yoga. Congratulations to all of the graduates that made the retreat at Edenvale in Abbotsford, BC so special. As students of the program move on to explore their own creative and authentic approach to teaching, so too do the facilitators of Gaiatri Yoga. With a lot of exciting projects, new courses, return of old courses (Yoga for Pregnancy and Beyond) and movements towards a 500 hour program and advanced Spirit-based studies, keep your eyes posted on the website and newsletter for courses in your area.  As Mary Jo Fetterly maintains Vancouver-based Trinity Yoga for advanced studies and Jennifer Steed moves more towards retreats and family time; Anna, Trevor, Ally, Tiffany, Trisha, Rik and Sonja continue with the 200 hour teacher training program with excitement, expansion and some exciting new ideas. Here are some things to look for as Gaiatri Yoga continues on:

a mentorship program linking newer teachers with experienced teachers in their area for ongoing feedback and learning
an organic and sustainable line of bolsters, meditation cushions, and yoga props
an up to date resource for ongoing retreats, yoga workshops and further studies
online podcasts about all things yoga and ayurveda - join Anna and Ally for online classes, topic discussion and technique and alignment

Whether you are starting off your teacher training experience, are mid way through as a Trinity teacher or are a graduate of the 200 hour program, Gaiatri is committed to providing ongoing support. Your training and records transfer over with the name change and if you are not currently receiving the newsletter, send us an email at info@gaiatri.com and we will put you on the mailing list. 
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

Blessings to you all in the coming year,

The Gaiatri Staff

I sit here on a lovely Saturday afternoon to reflect on the week I’ve had. Its hot and sunny and lovely though its funny how at times I’ve complained about needing to use a fan all the time, the way I miss rain and snow and how the lovely hotness can make people ‘too laid back’...if that’s even possible. What I’m trying to say is that its all in perception.

There have been many shifts and different perceptions amongst my fellow teachers as well as the students here at the training. But I guess that reflects the ‘vacillating’ nature of the mind. They’re like the waves in the pond (or the ocean) that make it hard to see the bottom clearly.
