Meet Iva Stewart-Barre (Instagram: @ivadevaughn)

Iva was an attendee of our June Yoga Teacher Training. Hear more about her experience.

What was the highlight of your experience?

Get Loved Up has been a life changing experience filled with the unconditional love that I craved and didn’t even know how deep I needed to go.

What make’s GLU YTT different?

GLU YTT has reminded me who I am and where my light shines most. Koya has been able to assist in my spiritual, emotional & physical well being. I came into the training knowing that I needed a deeper level of community and connection to people who feel similar about the lightwork we are called to do. Koya cultivated space that allowed me to be authentically me, while holding myself accountable for holding space for others. She is an authentic community builder and has helped me regain strength in my ability to bridge communities near and dear.

Who should attend?

GLU YTT is a brilliant example of going deeper into being a social entrepreneur. Whether you want to teach or a deeper personal connection, it is for those who want to challenge self & willing to go deeper on a personal journey. I will remain plant based in my eating and lifestyle because I have gained a greater appreciation for this world.

What was the #1 thing you took away from the training?

I walked away remembering that I have a purpose and am filled with gratitude, appreciation, abundance and love for myself and the #GLUCREW!

What’s next for you?

Since GLUs YTT, I’ve become a full time private consultant for the areas of which I am passionate, mindfulness & wellness, travel & college access. My goal is to become a mindful influencer by way of self care practices. As we heal self, we heal the world.
