The Heroic Yogi
Apprenticeship
We are learning what it means to live our yoga—together.
Some days the lesson begins on the mat. Other days it begins in a garden, over a shared meal, or in a conversation with someone who has something to teach us.

Practice is where the path begins.
The Heroic Yogi journey began with my own questions about practice and how to carry what I was learning into everyday life. Today, that journey is becoming a shared apprenticeship. We are still growing as a founder- and volunteer-led school, learning from teachers, neighbors, community partners, and one another.
We return to our books in the Library of Consciousness, develop sādhana (साधना)—personal practice—and keep asking what our experiences are teaching us. We observe, write, serve, and come back to practice. You do not need teaching credentials to begin.

Practice & Formation
Embodied practice, observation, personal discipline, and mentorship grounded in lived experience.
Service & Stewardship
Community wellness, foodways, ecological work, and supervised field learning.
The Community Is Our Campus
Learning belongs in the world.
Our classrooms are already appearing in the places where we practice and serve across Milwaukee. We are grateful to the people who welcome us, share what they know, and help this school take root. Apprenticeship field placements are supervised and approved individually; prospective partnerships are not guaranteed placements.
Semester II includes a 100-hour Applied Sevā and Service-Learning Standard, with documented learning and mentor review.

An Ongoing Commitment
Learn. Assist. Document. Coordinate. Lead.
We do not have to know everything to begin. We do need to return, listen, study carefully, and take responsibility for what we learn.
This is a living school. Some offerings are already underway; others are seeds we are tending with our apprentices, volunteers, and partners.
