Join us for this one of a kind Yoga Alliance registered 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training program. A solid foundation in alignment and anatomy coupled with practical strategies to help students of all levels feel confident, and an in depth exploration of the 8 limbs of yoga give you the confidence you need to find your own voice as a teacher.

Our weekend only format allows you to reach your goals without a significant impact to your family and/or job. The full year format provides ample time to integrate, practice, study, receive support and grow both as a person and a teacher. (We meet one weekend a month for a full year.)

From a former graduate:

"I have been practicing yoga for many years and knew that a YTT would deepen my understanding and commitment but I did not know how completely transforming this program would be. I am amazed how quickly and how deeply this transformation has been. I have discovered so many aspects of Yoga that I did not know about through this program. I truly feel that I am so much more well rounded and well versed. This program presents many styles and options, so that I am learning what is best for me to focus on. One of my favorite aspects of this program is that is supports the development of the individual and allows each student to find and develop their strengths. Who I am and my interests are honored and I am encouraged to delve more deeply into what is resonating with me. I love not feeling like I am expected to be like anyone else. Mandy creates a supportive environment that allows each student to feel safe in exploring and developing. Her ability to lead with gentleness and positivity is truly amazing to experience. She brings her seasoned teaching, supportive nature, and open heart to every session, further inspiring the students to go even further." ~Elisha

The Gathering -- meeting each Wednesday at 6:15 p.m. -- is true community worship. Set in the informal first floor at Trinity Bellefonte (not the sanctuary), The Gathering celebrates community with free homemade soup & bread, fresh veggies and other baked goods. We sit among friends at small cafe tables and sing acoustic music, then engage in a 10-minute sermon in which you can comment and ask questions. It's a 35-minute service that's open to all faiths and all people. It's come-as-you-are. Kids are welcome to run around.
If you're looking for a place to truly celebrate community, give The Gathering a try -- it's all what YOU make it!

Centred Basketball will be hosting a 3-on-3 basketball league this fall for boys and girls in K-8th grade. Centred Basketball's 3-on-3 program helps players to develop their skills in a competitive, instructional, and fun atmosphere. 3-on-3 basketball is ideal because it allows players to have the ball in their hands more, it requires more of a focus on defense, it is ideal for teaching spacing and fundamentals, and it allows kids to play multiple positions. We offer one skill development session per week and one day of 3-on-3 games per week. Players will rotate teams each week so they are able to play with multiple types of players. Each week's winning teams will be awarded prizes! There will be end of season awards! To find register or find out more, visit www.centredbasketball.com.
