A full 200 hour certification course, registered with Yoga Alliance.

Join us for a well-paced immersion into rigorous and multifaceted yoga education.  Over these 7 months, all students will be given intensely personalized training to become rooted in philosophy derived from Khrishnamacharya, the father of modern day yoga.  With this awareness, the class will delve into knowledge of anatomy, principles of Iyengar alignment, ayurveda, meditation and truly understanding the eight limbs of Patanjali yoga.

In this class, you will build expertise in how to teach according to an individuals needs, with a focus on yoga therapy.  Students special needs, injuries, illnesses and particular problems will deepen your understanding of the body's possibilities. 

Selected books will be required to read and study during your training.

Any classes offered at the studio will be complimentary during teacher training, along with assisting yoga therapeutic classes. Some yoga experience is good however it’s not necessary for this particular training.  Sometimes the more a student does not know, the easier it is for the mind to be open. Homework and reading will be required every month: It is more for yourself and your own understanding of the work.

Anyone interested in deepening their own practice or on the road to teach in the future this is the place to start. What makes this training and studio different from all the others? We only allow small groups for the training. Years ago in India a student was trained and worked with their teacher by themselves. That is not a possibility in our world, so only allowing ten in a training at any time is what we offer here. You will have a tremendous amount of personal attention and feel as if you are the only one in the training. The yurt is a special, peaceful spiritual place for studying yoga and changing your life

We will focus a lot more on yoga therapy than other 200 hour training's. Spreading out the training gives students a time to digest what they are learning and incorporate the philosophy into their own personal lifestyle. Svadahyay, self study, self contemplation. Sanskrit word for looking inward, contemplation of the self and studying about the self. This takes time, so we have the time in this trainng.

This is also a great training for students that have full time jobs and careers and have very little free time and you don't have to give up every weekend, just once a month.
