The Essential Yoga Studio Teacher Training Program
provides high-quality training for those desiring to teach yoga or to deepen
their understanding of yoga practice.
If you count yoga as one of your passions and you have spent any time at all
in Fernie, BC, you have probably been to the Essential Yoga Studio.
It is there that you will find Francesca ter Poorten, owner of the studio.
She teaches a range of classes from a challenging ashtanga flow, to a mellow
hatha class, to her Yoga for Hips, which she herself describes as “an hour
of pain and suffering for athletes and desk monkeys alike. We all have tight
hips!”
The planets seem to be falling in line for Francesca. Recently returned from
an amazing solo journey to India to deepen her yoga practice, Francesca
arrived home to find her studio had been accepted by the Yoga Alliance
as a Teacher Training Center after a lengthy winter-long
application process. After teaching for over ten years, Francesca sees this
as a natural unfolding of her path. “To share knowledge with someone who
would like to teach or deepen their practice, this is exciting! I feel like
yoga has become a mainstream alternative that people can use to release
stress, connect mind and body, and change their perspective, now I get to
spread that energy!”
With the Yoga Alliance Certification, anyone who graduates
from this program will be able to teach anywhere in the world. Certification
Intensives start this fall at the Essential Yoga Studio with two ten-day
periods where you can go deeper into your practice and emerge with a more
profound understanding of Yoga and anatomy, philosophy and your own personal
practice.
