Meet Your Teacher

Courtney Schlotec, RYT 500 Certified YTT Facilitator

Welcome! Hi, I’m Courtney, owner of Grow Yoga and your 200 Hour Teacher Training leader.

I feel it is important to acknowledge that your decision to seek in person training at the 200 Hour level is a wise one. I hear all the time from students who chose an online or fast paced program, “I got certified, but I don’t know how to teach.” Under facilitated, fast paced, or self directed trainings sold at bottom level prices are a cash grab and quite frankly inappropriate for something this important. And if you happen to be reading this and you identify with these teachers, it’s not too late to get it right. We have had teachers who have already been certified take our training before.

Teacher Training is a milestone event in life and a turning point for many. You should let yourself get hopeful and excited about this experience. An in person Yoga Teacher Training is one of the best things a person can do for themselves and I believe this training will exceed your expectations.

There are many reasons people sign up for an in person 200 Hour Training and teaching yoga is only one of them. Whether you want to teach yoga, gain confidence, create lasting relationships, deepen your listening and speaking skills, or quite honestly, change the way you view life in every great way, this 200 Hour Teacher Training is the one to do!

The Lit From Within training is a top level 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training from world class trainers who are partnered with our studio. The training has a carefully thought destination in mind where you will discover what is possible for yourself in the world of leading others. And just like anything else that is well thought, there is a method behind it.

If Teacher Training is the thing that you want to be up to in the world of growth and personal fulfillment, then put your attention on what you want to have happen and be for it! What could be possible if you bet on yourself and believe in your own greatness? What if it all works out for you?
