Absolutely. In a Teacher Training, there’s only so much time we can dedicate to helping you refine your breathing and better understand the depths of a personal practice — considering the priority of a teacher training is to give you adequate skills to teach people and help them.

Developing efficiency and efficacy in your breathing is not something that really comes from a teacher training. Proper breath control comes from specialized instruction, methodology and lots of practice.

All in all, this training is designed to provide you with practical knowledge that keeps you safe and practicing in a way that elevates your health and consciousness.
