“The memory of pain is such a strange thing”

@beccateratops Becca said that to me yesterday when I was asking her to reflect on her Structural Integration 10-Series after her Session 10.

And it really is a profound statement…

Pain is such an immediate and all-consuming felt experience that happens in the present moment. Trying to remember pain that isn’t there anymore is so weird…

Of course, our stories around the pain and our attachment to it can definitely influence that experience, especially when it comes to chronic pain.

That’s why I love Ida Rolf’s work and the contributions of my Hellerwork lineage so much, because the dialogue can be a profound component in changing a client’s relationship to their pain and the incident or experience that caused/is causing the pain, which definitely affects the felt experience.

There’s just something so cool about getting a message from a client months later, like this one from Jenn @jenniferjuniper999

It’s not uncommon after a series for me to ask a client, “how’s your back pain?” And have them say something like, “oh yea! I actually forgot about that!”… even with that was the primary complaint that brought them in to see me in the first place.

Just a reminder that pain doesn’t have to be a reality you just deal with, live with, or manage… even if it feels like that sometimes 💞 by @heba.a.saab

Signing up for yoga teacher training isn’t about feeling completely ready. I wasn’t.

It’s about having the courage to take a step forward for yourself.

Signing up for yoga teacher training is NOT about being flexible, or knowing every pose, or already feeling confident to teach.

Confidence comes through practice.

The more you practice, the more you’ll embody your practice and your experience. As you learn to trust what you feel and know, the more confident you become in sharing that experience with someone else. In fact, it’s inevitable. Your commitment to your practice in yoga teacher training will make it so that sharing is inevitable.

Teacher training isn’t asking you to arrive as a teacher. It’s asking you to arrive as a student.

For many of you, yoga teacher training will be your first significant investment in yourself. Not only financially, but with your time, energy, attention, and heart.
Prepare yourself for that. When you make the decision to commit to teach training, give yourself permission to make you and your training a priority.

Look at your life now and ask, “What needs to shift so I can truly be present for this experience?”

Arrange for reliable childcare or pet care, look ahead at your work schedule and make sure all your shifts are covered. Let your family, friends, and the people who depend on you know that you may be less available during training.
You are creating space for something that is very sacred and that matters to you, and in doing so, you are already teaching the people in your in your life that they are also worthy of doing the same. Post continued in comments✨✨ taken in Quintessence Sanctuary by @heba.a.saab

Nothing against chiropractic care… it’s just that as my teacher Ron says, ALL MODALITIES have the 3 B’s “blind spots, biases, and brilliances (or B.S.), depending…” 🤣🤣🤣

Structural Integration included… of course…

But one thing I do LOVE about and 💯 stand behind as a structural integration practitioner, is that I’m not a therapist, I’m an educator.

And as an educator, to me, that means I need to be a student, always, first and foremost… which is why I love learning techniques from all sorts of modalities, and most importantly, all sorts of master bodyworkers, to make sure I have as many tools as possible to help the person who shows up on my table to the fullest of my potential.

So when my client says “I need to spend less time in my office chair” after using the incredible techniques I learned from Osteo Ron Murray in his pelvis class this past summer… I smile ear to ear 😁

Because that means the work did so much more than “fix” someone’s hip… it actually helped bring attention to the problem so that the client isn’t having to come see me once a week for the rest of her life to get an adjustment, when the solution is to ditch the office chair.

And yes, dissociating her pelvis from her sacrum helped 😉💞

So thanks Ron 🙏 you da best ✨ by @heba.a.saab

Is Yoga Teacher Training worth it? Can you actually make money as a yoga teacher in Las Vegas?

These are some of the most commonly asked questions by students who are interested in The HIBS YOGA 200-Hour Foundational Teacher Training Program. There’s a lot of mystery around money in the yoga industry, and there are some fair reasons for that… but that’s a topic for another day.

Today, I want to demystify and break down the real numbers for our actual market here in Las Vegas with an honest look at what training costs, how long it takes to realistically earn it back, and what the most common income paths look like here in Vegas once you’re certified and ready to teach.

I’ve been in the yoga world long enough to know that completing a teacher training and actually feeling prepared to teach are two very different things.

That’s one of the reasons the HIBS yoga teacher training means so much to me.

I don’t want you to graduate with a sequence you memorized, that contains all the cues to call out the 20 poses in it. Not only does that really limit where you can teach after training, it’s a quick way to burn out as a yoga teacher, or worse, cause repetitive stress injuries in your body and the bodies of your regular students.

I also don’t want you standing there after training, holding your certificate, thinking, “Okay… now how do I actually teach?” (Which happens a lot, believe it or not)…. This training will set you up to be a successful teacher and to feel confident that you are ready to actually start teaching.

I want you to know how to teach the person in front of you and how to adapt the practice to meet their needs. Our 200-hour training is about building that foundation.

You’ll learn the art of sequencing using tried and true formulas that you can customize to suit the needs of your students, while safely adding your own flare. (Post continued in comments) taken in Quintessence Sanctuary by @heba.a.saab

What if yoga teacher training wasn’t only about learning how to teach poses…

So much as changing the way you see bodies, including your own?

Have you been in a yoga class and wondered why everyone else looks like they’re having such a great time and it’s so easy for them, yet you’re on the struggle bus, confused why their experience isn’t also yours?

Or have you ever walked into a yoga class and quietly wondered,

“Is there room for a body like mine here?”

The HIBS Yoga Teacher Training will make you question some of the things many of us have been taught about yoga.

That there is one “correct” alignment for every pose and it needs to look a certain way.

That modifying or using props means you’re doing less, or not doing it the way it’s supposed to be done.

That yoga isn’t about making your practice fit the pose, it’s about allowing the practice to meet you where you are.

We’re going to explore a different kind of strength, too.

Strength as trusting yourself.
Strength as honoring your boundaries.
Strength as staying present.

That strength doesn’t always have to come by pushing through pain.

You’ll begin rebuilding and healing your relationship with your body.

And ultimately, your relationship with other people’s bodies.

Because when you learn to listen to your own body differently, you’ll hold space for other bodies differently, too.

Our intention isn’t simply to create teachers who know more or have everything memorized perfectly.

We want to cultivate teachers who are curious.
Teachers who have embodied what they are teaching.

Teachers who are compassionate and inclusive, who see the human before the pose.

If you’ve felt something missing from your practice or your teaching, maybe this is the invitation you’ve been waiting for.

Our next program starts in February, reach out to me or Heba for more information. taken in Quintessence Sanctuary by @heba.a.saab
