EPY is a donation-based Vinyasa yoga studio and school for yoga teachers offering 21 day residential yoga teacher training retreats in Oregon, California, and Costa Rica. Everyday People Yoga’s aim is to create a sacred space for the cultivation of spirituality. The yoga classes we offer attempt to eliminate competition, judgement, and exclusivity. The donation model has been established to allow for genuine seekers from all walks of life to experience the benefits of yoga.
In addition to daily class offerings, Everyday People Yoga is school for yoga teachers and spiritual seekers. Our teacher training program emphasizes direct experience as the key to both personal transformation, and becoming an outstanding teacher.
We spend many hours each day practicing a wide array of methods that are part of the yogic path.
Discussion is favored over lecture. Dogma is replaced with universal spiritual laws that are heart-centered. This training is for honest seekers that believe in a Higher Power at work in our lives.
Our program is open to dedicated practitioners, regardless of perceived physical ability. The curriculum has been carefully selected to reflect yoga's spiritual tradition.
