Q&A WITH TT ALUMNI MAXIMINIANO NASCIMENTO

1. Where has Yoga taken you?

Yoga has been a life-changing experience. Every time I am on the mat I am challenged to give myself time to heal and grow.

2. How did your yoga teacher training influence your life?
I have taken different classes from different teachers but they have all contributed positively with their own input. I have a very particular opinion about teachers in general. They are heroes, including yoga teachers. I’m just thankful for the opportunity to learn from experienced and talented ones.

3. What was your first yoga class experience?
Years ago my then-boyfriend Todd (now husband) invited me to a class and I was hooked right away. I was going through depression and anxiety. It’s been about 4 years since that first yoga class. The first of so many more that each time yoga helps me in so many ways.
