IdentityI was born and raised in Ahmadabad, and I currently live in Ahmadabad. with my family. When I am not teaching yoga or blogging, I am a Investor and Corporate Employed.
(1) When did you get into yoga?
Nine months ago(since Feb'2017), I quit my full time job and attended a yoga teacher training. It was a huge leap of faith, but I knew it was the right decision. Before pursuing teaching yoga as a career, I worked in the Corporate sector in a variety of different fields. And no matter how passionate I felt about the organization I was working for, I always had a longing in my heart to do something related to yoga.
(2)Wha's the certification process like?
The yoga teacher training I participated in was a month-long intensive program in Bangalore. We would wake up at 5 a.m. and go to bed around 9 p.m., practicing a total of 4-5 hours of yoga a day. It taught me the world about myself and who I want to be as a teacher. I also made some incredible friends through the training.
(3)Whats an average day like?
As a yoga teacher, a big part of my job is to practice myself. Not a bad gig! I also spend a lot of time preparing to teach classes, working on sequencing, and reading about yoga philosophy. Of course, like with any freelance job there is also the element of marketing myself, networking and making the business-side work.
