• Now, Yoga begins.

    Yoga is a healing practice and after 5,000+ years it is still potent, relevant, and needed now more than ever. At its core, studying yoga is the study of life and self. Throughout our time together, you will peal away layers, discover your truth, and learn how to offer your gifts and inner illumination to the world.

    *This is a Yoga Alliance approved training.*

     

    What makes our training different?

    We offer Yoga as an embodied life practice. While the majority of our training is held at the studio, we will also spend time immersed in the elements - hiking, soaking, connecting around a fire, and practicing breathwork outdoors. You will not only learn about Yoga, you will learn to LIVE your Yoga.

     

    This training will:

    * Deepen your understanding of the 8 limbed path and practices of Yoga

    * Introduce you to the 5 Great Elements, the Maha Bhutas, to guide and support you

    * Teach you yogic philosophy, history, and traditions

    * Offer tools to lead mindful, sustainable, and purposeful yoga classes

    * Provide a knowledge base of Anatomy and Physiology to create safe

    practices and physical/energetic alignment for self and others

    * Awaken you to live a heart and soul centered life

     

    Topics include:

    * Yoga history, philosophy, and tradition

    * Anatomy, Alignment, and Physiology

    * Subtle energy: the chakra system, yin/yang, koshas, vayus

    * Bhakti Yoga: mantra, mudra, chanting, storytelling

    * The life science of Ayurveda: practical applications of this ancient wisdom to modern life

    * Taking the seat of a teacher: finding your voice, effective sequencing/cueing

    * Professional Development: pathways to teach public and private classes,

    how to lead workshops, creating a fulfilling career
