I had someone ask me the other day if I was concerned that there could be too many yoga teachers in Sarnia. I had to smile at the question because my answer was a whole hearted NO! Judith Lasater wrote in her book "Living Your Yoga" that there will always be enough. My students are drawn to me because they are likely struggling through the same life questions that I am struggling through, just as some people who enter my class will realize that I am not their teacher at all. But let me assure you, there is a teacher for everyone and there is a student for everyone too. Last summer, my greatest teacher was a spunky little 7 year old girl named Isabelle. She pushed me to remember that life is fun, sometimes pushing me when I didn't want to be pushed. And that made her the best teacher of all.

It is a fear response to think there are too many teachers in Sarnia. The more yoga teachers the calmer the world is going to be. It is a challenge to our ego, as a yoga teacher, to release fear and know that there is infinite supply for all of us.
