Registered Yoga School

Next training begins June 1, 2024
NEW! Hybrid Offerings
Online or In Person 
The Ultimate Self-Care Investment🙏

We’re starting our 9th class for wannabe yoga teachers & yoga immersion students on Saturday, June 1st.

More and more of you are signing up to immerse yourself into the world of yoga, deepen your knowledge of yoga and make the investment in your self-care by integrating your learnings into daily life as a human being.

Additionally, more of you want to start training on YOUR schedule, not mine, lol.

Naturally, I have a method to the madness, but I’ve been testing adding students midstream and so far it’s working out. I needed to get out of my own way.

As long as you attend 12 trainings (either in person or virtually), then you can walk away with a certificate, if that is your goal. Otherwise, your life could be enriched beyond earning a teaching certificate as shared in this testimony:

“YTT has been one of the most impactful and influential investments in myself in my adult life. Acquiring the RYT-200 certificate is minimal in comparison to my new appreciation for the history and philosophy of yoga, a deeper dive and understanding of anatomy, curious insight into subtle energy and Ayurveda, confidence in sharing a lifelong passion that’s served different purposes throughout my life, and compassion for self. Above all these gains, I am most grateful for the connection and friendships made within The Studio community.

I hope more education and learning is in my near future and that RYT-500 may be a possibility for me down the road.

Thank you for facilitating this experience! YTT has changed my outlook and perception of life and is altering how I want to experience my time here on earth.”

So, yes, think of this journey an opportunity to pause and begin on an excavation of sorts. An excavation of YOU!

Peeling back the layers to get to your authentic self. Learning a deeper level of holistic self-care through the lense of yoga to alleviate stress, worry and anxiety. 

Science is catching up and validating what the ancients knew all along about the benefits of holistic living and what I like to call “The 3 M’s” – Movement, Mindfulness & Meditation.

Who signs up for this course?

Sooooo many graduates have found this training integrates beautifully with what they do now. I’ve had teachers, nurses, psychologists, chief financial officers, CrossFit coaches, personal trainers, real estate agents, equestrians, veterinarians, moms, grandmothers, pastors, acupuncturists, social workers, mental health therapists and even retired folks who simply want to learn more and make an investment in their very being. 

You’re never too old. It’s never too late. I consider myself a full-time student. There’s so much to learn and each year I offer this training, my learning deepens and for that….. I. AM. THANKFUL.

Also, I’m planning to open some of the lectures to the community. So, if you’re not ready to make the 12 weekend commitment, attend a lecture or two and see what you think. Then if you want to make the commitment, we’ll figure it out. Everything is figureoutable. I’m beyond excited about the direction our little Registered Yoga School is going. 

Who is the lead facilitator?

Me! Shannon Stricklin, the creator and visionary of The Studio. I quit my 25 year career in the telecommunications industry to open a yoga studio and become a yoga teacher. I’ve been teaching 12 years and have taught nearly 6,000 classes. I’ve practiced yoga for more than 17 years and graduated my 8th class of yoga training students this month.

I consider my classes a fusion of all the yoga that I love including hatha, restorative, yin, yoga nidra and whatever I create. It’s increasingly important that my classes are inclusive for all humans – including seniors and curvier folks.

Now that I’m well into my 50’s, I’m particularly interested in “aging like a pro” with Yoga and all its accoutrements – including weights.

Plus, I just LOVE teaching  and enjoy baking in my love of the seasons, nature, history, & music history into my classes.

I love being a C.E.O – Cheif Encourager Officer and I love training others to be one too. 

How will we learn?

I’ll engage you with an array of yoga classes, interactive presentation slides, videos, demonstrations, observation, experience, discussion, reading assignments, guest speakers and teachers, journaling & quizzes.
