Yoga Teacher Training

Yoga is evolving and with this comes a need to continually refine and enhance not only the way classes are sequenced but also how specific practices (asana, pranayama, meditation etc) are worked together, in each class, in order to meet the changing needs of modern students.

This Level II Teacher Training will be taught over 2 weekend immersions, comprising 7 contact days. The programme focusses on how you as a teacher can significantly deepen your practice, understanding and sequencing of vinyasa yoga.

Core components:

• A significant focus on working with the energetic bandhas and how these can enhance the practice of asana and pranayama.
• Evolutionary principles of sequencing vinyasa yoga classes based on an understanding of wave theory, the gunas and peak poses.

• How to understand and apply the theory of the vayus or five primary energy lines to the practice of asana.
• Exploring advanced yoga asanas including numerous arm balances, inversions and backbends plus advanced vinyasa flows.
• Understanding how the imprinting of key actions within a practice can enhance the performance of peak poses.
• A deepening exploration and the development of a transformative life long practice of pranayama.

Typical format of each day:

Each morning begins with a 2.5 hour vinyasa master class, which is also open to the general public. These classes are then pulled apart to further understand how key actions support advanced postures. The peak poses of the morning are examined and practiced in more detail with an emphasis on adjusting and variations.

Each afternoon begins with Yoga Nidra followed by a range of topics as outlined above. Practice of advanced pranayama and meditation will also be included in these sessions.

Costs:

The course is designed as a complete program taught over 6 days and 2 evenings.
The course cost is $800 payable upfront or in two installments of $400.
