WHY OUR TRAINING: For those looking to either teach vinyasa, hatha or further their practice understanding, this training program will leave you feeling confident and ready to explore that direction. While we will still cover other styles such as Ashtanga and Meditation, Vinyasa will be the primary focus of this training. We strive to provide you with the best experience possible. There will be lots of emphasis on anatomical alignment, sequencing, modifications, assists, cueing, creative expression, and how to read the energy of a room along with the philosophy and history of yoga. We also include our Elevate Assisting Program and certification in this teacher training, so each trainer will learn and be tested out for hands on assists. We've created our own content for our teacher training binders with all the necessary information and include books in our training to make sure you can receive the best education possible in 200 hours.
TRANSFORM: Aside from the teaching aspect, there is a whole lot of heart behind this training. It was created with the intention to not only share yoga with the community but to help make a positive difference in this world. It is more than needing to learn a yoga pose - it is about learning a lifestyle of awareness and inner growth - a true transformation! Expect deep internal work and group connection - we will become very close with each other over the course of this training. We will fall back on each other for help and support along the way. We will strengthen our practices and our abilities to teach and lead others. We will get to know Vinyasa inside and out. We will seek our edges and surrender - shining light on the shadowed areas of our life where we can learn and grow. We will build connection and lasting friendships.
WHAT TO EXPECT: We will cover different topics each training weekend to build a solid foundation towards becoming a Vinyasa yoga instructor. We will spend a lot of time practice teaching with our fellow teacher trainers while providing feedback to help grow into knowledgable and skillful instructors. There will be reading and homework assignments outside of the training hours to help stay focused and inspired on this journey towards becoming a certified teacher. We will also use a closed Facebook group to connect and share with one another throughout this training, so be sure you have an active account. This program was designed to help you knock down your walls and to learn what it takes to live, breathe and teach yoga. Step into transformation.
