As the Yoga world continues to rapidly evolve and reflect modern day society, it is
more important than ever to find a yoga teacher training that remains true and
authentic in its approach while still being informed with the most up to date
information. In the spirit of uniting the old and the new, Master Teacher Connie Miller

WHAT TO EXPECT
Together, Connie and Matthew share an extensive Yoga education rich in
experience and lineage. This Yoga Alliance Certified program holds the highest
regard for ancient tradition and modern day science.
Unique to the Yoga & the Rhythms of Life YTT is a focus on synthesizing and applying
the course material so that you can teach yoga in a way that’s meaningful and
relevant for today’s students.
This calls for special attention to
- the whole being, and how it moves, breathes, feels, thinks, and vibrates.
- the needs and concerns that are prevalent in people’s lives today.
- the method of delivery in educating your students.
- re-evaluating old cues and phrases that no longer serve our bodies.
- exploring ways to describe Yogic concepts so that they make sense for you as the teacher AND for your clientele.
- finding & retaining your core tribe of students.
- exploring the many rhythms of life as they show up in the Body-Mind-Energy and weaving them together with our practice.
As a participant, you will experience the art and the science of yoga through a
personally transformational practice that uplifts and inspires your life, your life as a
teacher, and the lives of your students. Through your practice and training you will
cultivate a more liberated relationship with your body and your self- You will expand
and deepen your own freedom and truth, you will be engaged in the process of awakening
and evolving your own essential self, who you truly are in each moment of life,
and you will have fun! Deep, rich, satisfying fun!
OUR PROGRAM
Yoga & the Rhythms of Life Yoga Teacher Training is a 200 hour certification
program. The complete curriculum exceeds national standards for basic level yoga
teacher certification. Our small class sizes assure time and space for individual
attention. Some participants may want to deepen their practice of yoga for their own
enrichment; others know they want to be a yoga teacher.
We have found that life is yoga and yoga is life. Therefore, the program includes
and addresses “real life” in its curriculum, teaching methodology, philosophical
approach, and scheduling. Our program is offered in weekend modules with a
schedule that makes it accessible to those with family, school, work, and other
responsibilities.
We know that with even the best intentions and planning, you may have an
emergency or a conflict in your schedule, and need to miss a session. With prior
arrangements and for a small fee, we will record key portions of the training for you
and provide any new printed materials.

YOUR TRAINERS:
CONNIE MILLER, E-RYT 500, embodies a wealth of wisdom earned through more than 45 years of learning, living, and teaching yoga. Connie brings not only precise alignment and form to Yoga Asana, but also the invitation to explore the inner movement of energy through the multi-dimensional body, honoring the innate wisdom and full expression of the human spirit. An energetic, playful, and compassionate teacher, Connie's trainings provide a dynamic experience that empowers participants to touch and trust their own source of strength, wisdom, love and joy, and integrate that knowing into their teaching and their actions in every-day life. MATTHEW MITLAS, E-RYT 200, Director & Lead Teacher of The Yoga Room, is so happy and grateful for the gift of Yoga and the opportunity to share it with all of you! Matthew began his practice in 2011 and immediately felt a strong connection to Yoga. Shortly after his first class, he crossed paths with his mentor, Connie Miller, who trained him privately for over 2 years in a program that prepared him to deepen his own practice and to share with others from an authentic place in his heart. He has since completed numerous advanced and therapeutic trainings. Matthew has a specific interest in sequencing his classes in ways that make sense for the body- both physically and energetically. In his classes, he often incorporates Yoga poses and other forms of movement that encourage good posture and build resilience in the body and mind. Expect an accessible yet challenging practice, weaved together with inspired, uplifting, and life-affirming philosophy, that leaves you feeling great in your own body. |
