Seven Hills Yoga Studies was founded by Suzanne Harrell and Addie Post in 2024. With the support of Journeys in Yoga's new owner, Michelle, Addie and Suzanne wanted to continue the long tradition of a teacher training program hosted at Journeys. We are honored to follow in the footsteps of Many Rivers Yoga Teacher Training program and offer access to high quality instruction in the physical, historical and philosophical aspects of Yoga to people interested in learning how to teach Yoga or just wanting to deepen their own understanding of this ancient practice. Seven Hills Yoga Studies is a registered school with the Yoga Alliance- RYS #34086.
Our name is a nod to the seven hills of our hometown Tallahassee Florida and the location of our teacher training program. Our program is founded on seven principles that guide us in our teaching and in our lives. Living by these principles is a practice in and of itself. We strive to share the benefits and challenges in our own personal journey as both teachers and human beings making our way on the planet. These principles are intertwined with the Yamas and Niyamas in the Yoga Sutras.
They are:
Focus- choosing carefully how we spend our energy and what energy we put out in the world.
Authenticity- being our genuine selves on and off the mat and helping others do the same.
Abundance- living and teaching from a belief that we will have all that we need.
Inclusion- recognizing and embracing differences while making space for all voices.
Introspection- a commitment to self-study and personal growth.
Transparency- being open, clear and candid about who we are as a business, as teachers and as human beings.
Harmony- living in peace and in balance with everything around us.
