Mindful Yoga & Meditation Training
A Yearlong Mindfulness Intensive
for Yoga Teachers
Weaving together yoga and Insight Meditation into one practice, Spirit Rock’s Mindful Yoga and Meditation Training (MYMT3) is an intensive 12-month training led by nationally known teachers of both yoga and Buddhism. The core of the training is the cultivation of mindfulness - the capacity to meet life moment to moment with kind awareness. In the deep inner and outer silence of the retreat environment, participants cultivate an integrated body-mind practice that encourages awakening on every level of being, including the physical, energetic, emotional and interpersonal dimensions.

Initially I was attracted to the Kalyana Mitta listings on the Spirit Rock website because I felt isolated in my practice. I longed for friends on the Dharma path. I didn’t feel qualified to start and facilitate a new group myself. After unsuccessfully waiting two years for someone else to start a group in my area, I finally took the plunge. I’m so glad I did!
