K., Mexico, Tobago, Costa Rica, and new in 2011, Puglia, Italy.
Our highly regarded 750-hour Yoga Teacher Training Programme in Toronto is appropriate for individuals interested in becoming teachers, for teachers wishing to upgrade their skills, and for students looking to expand and deepen their understanding and practice. Please plan on attending an Open House at the Studio on Sunday, September 12 from 7:30pm - 9pm to meet the faculty, for information and discussion. The next group will begin October, 2010 - click on Teacher Training. Long distance study is possible. Students enrolled in Esther Myers Yoga Studio Teacher Training Programme will receive an official tuition fee receipt (T2202A) which can be used when filing your personal income tax.
NEW! Watch for our 300-hour Post-Graduate Teacher Training beginning January, 2011.
Retreats away from home become an important entry into a regular yoga practice for many.
The Oaxaca, Mexico/Day of the Dead retreat with Monica Voss returns this fall, October 24 - November 3! Mexico is ancient, creative and stimulating and the Day of the Dead Festival unique and colourful. Please attend an informal meeting on September 11 at 3pm. at the Studio for more information.
Embedded in the middle of winter (February, 2011) is the annual yoga holiday in Tobago, mellow and gorgeous, with yoga practice taking place on a teak-floored ajoupa inaugurated by the Dalai Lama. Consider joining Monica this winter for the 10th anniversary of this wonderful event (www.kariwak.com).
In April, 2011, Tama Soble and Monica Voss will accompany a group to Luna Lodge in the wild and remote southern tip of Costa Rica, as profound an experience as any in the world. This pristine sanctuary is dedicated to the pursuit of yoga, meditation, and the preservation of our natural world (www.lunalodge.com).
In July, 2011, Monica and Tama are embarking on a new endeavour - our first yoga retreat in Europe! Join us in Puglia, southern Italy (near Brindisi).
Come along on an adventure, challenge your views of yourself and the world and enjoy the tremendous pleasure of practising yoga in some of the most beautiful and stimulating destinations on our wonderful planet (click on Retreats).
This past spring, our annual fund-raising event was a Book, CD, DVD and Bake sale in the parking lot of 390 Dupont St. on June 13, 9am-3pm. Your contributions of items and/or volunteer time were much appreciated. With your help, we collected over $2,000. All proceeds have been donated to a neighbourhood women's and children's shelter. Thank you all again!
March 2009 marked the 30th anniversary of Esther Myers Yoga Studio! We are grateful for the ongoing commitment of our community of students, particularly poignant last year. Deep heartfelt thanks to Esther Myers (1947-2004) for the intelligent compassionate path of enquiry she blazed for us all. |
