Who are my teachers?
Maryam Bakht
Maryam began her yoga practice in the mid 1990s and is a hot yoga teacher specializing in purposeful movement and mental strength and clarity. Maryam holds a PhD in Linguistics and in her time as a college professor developed research interests in the discourse of fitness and wellness, particularly as it pertains to yoga, language and identity and methods for practicing calmness and rest as a way to become more efficient and effective in work. Her interests in yoga are centered around the 26&2 series including developing practices that are inclusive for different bodies. As a linguistic consultant, Maryam gives workshops for individuals and groups on how to develop (yoga) teaching styles and persona to strengthen presentation skills.
Alison Young
Alison’s yoga journey began as a young mother to three small children. Faced with the mental and physical demands of raising children, she found cardio and weight training to be generally uninspiring. As a former disciplined gymnast in her youth, Alison was drawn to the asanas, inversions, and arm balances of an advanced yoga practice. Yoga proved to be a powerful way for her to reconnect with her childhood passion of sport and creativity while also addressing her need for mental stimulation and spiritual growth.
A graduate of Bella Prana’s 200 hour training program, Alison creates classes with a strong Vinyasa Flow while incorporating arm balances and inversions to elevate her students’ practice. She is adept at leading yogis of varied abilities and encouraging them to push past their boundaries. She is a playful but kindhearted instructor who thrives on challenging and energizing her students.
How do I take the 10 classes to get a teaching certification?
If you plan to attend in person, let us know and we will place a 10 class package on your account. These classes can only be taken in Hot 26 and with one of your lead teachers- Maryam or Alison.
If you plan to attend virtually, you will have 6 months unlimited access to the virtual studio and can take any of our Hot 26 classes on demand!
What if I miss some of the weekend?
The hot 26 yoga teacher training sessions will be recorded, so you can make up any time that is missed.
