✨ Yoga Teacher Training - More Than Learning to Teach Yoga ✨

Today we hear from Emily, Brian, Jenny, and Rebecca as they share how they changed through their time in the Satya Yoga Teacher Training program.

This journey is about so much more than poses or cueing a class. It’s about building a deeper connection to yourself—often beyond where you ever thought you could go. When you allow yourself to fully immerse in the program, something ignites within you… something you carry forward long after training ends.

Whether your intention is to teach, to deepen your personal practice, or simply to connect with a community of like-minded souls, Satya’s Yoga Teacher Training meets you exactly where you are.

🌿 Training begins this January.
🌿 All paths are welcome.

If you have questions or feel a gentle curiosity stirring, reach out. Teresa or one of our recent graduates would be happy to walk alongside you, answer questions, and support you as you explore if this path is right for you.

Sometimes the first step is simply listening to that inner nudge. 🤍

🧘‍♀️ “It wasn’t just a training — it was a return to myself.”

Today, we invite you to pause, take a breath, and listen to four voices from our 2025 Yoga Teacher Training circle — Jenny, Rebecca, Emily and Brian.

Each shares what this journey meant to them — in their own words, from their own path. Whether they joined to deepen their personal practice or to prepare to teach, their reflections illuminate the heart of Satya’s approach:

🌿 Rooted in tradition
🤍 Guided with compassion
✨ Aligned with each unique unfolding

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all program. It’s a space for truth, transformation, and real connection.

🎥 Watch the 4-minute video and see what Satya YTT feels like through their eyes.

This week, we’re sharing reflections from recent graduates of Satya’s 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training — an intimate, inclusive program rooted in tradition, transformation, and truth.

You’ll hear from Brian, Emily, Rebecca, and Jenny — four unique voices, one shared journey. Today’s question: What was most surprising about Yoga Teacher Training?

Their answers might echo something stirring in your own heart. Whether you're just beginning your yoga journey or wondering if teaching is for you — we invite you to listen in.

✨ Come along as we lift the veil on what this training really feels like — not just in theory, but in lived experience.

Do you have questions about the program? We’re here. Send us a DM or send us an email: hello@satyayogasaugatuck.com — we’d love to talk.

🧘‍♀️Spotted after class: a little lost hydration.

In yoga, we practice aparigraha — non-grasping, the art of letting go.

Apparently… some of us are really committed to the practice 😉
(We see you, and your water bottles!)

A gentle nudge from your Satya family: stay hydrated, stay connected, and yes — stay mindful of your belongings 💦

Because while non-attachment is a yogic virtue… your hydration still matters.
Especially after a good flow.

Find your bottle in the newly organized prop area. And, see you and your bottle on the mat soon!

Meet Michael — meditation enthusiast, taco truck alum, and lifelong learner who brings presence and philosophy into every class he teaches.

Michael’s path to yoga began with a deep dive into mysticism and meditation during his undergrad years — studies that eventually led him to the mat. It wasn’t until he landed at Eastside Yoga in Austin, TX, that he discovered how powerful a fully integrated yoga practice could be: movement, breath, philosophy, and stillness woven into one.

Now, after completing his 200-hour teacher training at Satya in 2025, Michael holds space for others to experience the richness of yoga — not just as physical practice, but as a way of life.

Practice with Michael:
• Move+Breathe+Meditate – Thursdays at 6:00pm

His classes blend pranayama (breath), meditation, and asana — designed to strengthen both body and mind while cultivating sthira sukham: steadiness and ease.

In Michael’s words:
“Yoga gives us the tools to meet life — all of it — with presence and balance.”
