Description
This class is all about strengthening community!
The pandemic posed a challenge for many newly certified teachers who could not easily gain studio teaching experience. Yoga Kāla is pleased to support the development of newer teachers, or teachers returning to studio after a long hiatus, by offering a paid opportunity for one guest teacher to lead an all-levels practice in this donation-based class. Each guest teacher will lead four Friday classes. Ellen or other Yoga Kāla teachers will provide mentoring and feedback to these teachers.
Proceeds from this class will be given to an Ottawa-based community organization or charity of the teacher’s choosing.
