A Journey to Inclusive Wellness with Angel Dixon
Year Completed Training
2025
What Teacher Training have you completed with Ritual?
200hr Yoga and 50hr Yin
We’re also planning to feature some of our graduates and their amazing work on our platforms. Would you be interested in being part of a short, casual video interview?
Yes, sounds good!
What personal or professional experiences inspired you to deepen your practice and begin your journey in teaching?
With a regular personal practice and background in healthcare research and disability I wanted to learn to teach to make yoga and wellness practices accessible to the community of people who experience barriers to participating in mainstream/general classes.
What aspects of Ritual inspired you to choose it for your Teacher Training journey?
The philosophical focus was clear in the marketing of the course. That was the selling point for me.
What path have you taken since finishing your Teacher Training with Ritual? How has life unfolded for you since completing your training?
My training is ongoing. I will be nearly completed by December I hope. My training has helped me with the development of a wellness app I have built and will launch in 2026.
How are you continuing your yoga/pilates journey since completing the training?
My personal practice has taken on new dimensions since training. Giving language to things I have long practiced but not acknowledged and the introduction of new techniques.
What personal or professional milestones have you reached since graduating from Ritual’s Teacher Training? Have there been any standout experiences or accomplishments you have had since finishing your training?
I have been teaching a class for family and friends. Most weeks it is just a private class with someone. It’s been really special being able to share this practice with others in a meaningful way and hear about their experiences.
Are you using your certification to connect with any communities or organisations to make yoga/ pilates/ meditation more accessible to the wider public? If yes, could you please share some details?
To ensure my app is utilised by the people who will benefit from yoga the most, I am establishing a community of allied health professionals and rehabilitation clinics who will support practitioners to start a home practice.
How else are you sharing your certification in service of others, and what impact has this had on people in general?
I hope that I will have more to answer this question with over the next 12 months.
What are your future aspirations, and how has your experience with Ritual’s Teacher Training guided or inspired them?
For my app to be utilised by the people who need it most. For my personal practice to continue to deepen and develop. For me, Rituals training has been invaluable in helping conceptualise the yoga system as a whole and ensuring that its traditional roots are present in my teaching.
Is there anything else you’d like to share about your experience since completing Ritual’s Teacher
Training?
Thank you 🙏🏻
