The course curriculum includes:

 

Asana – practicing a range of postures from the eight groups (forward, backward and side bends, twists, balances, inversions, seated and natural spine alignment) with basic sequencing.

 

Basic breathing and pranayama – coordinating breath and movement in postures, three-part breath, nostril or glottis/throat control pranayama with and without the use of ratios.

 

Concentration and relaxation – using focal points of breath, objects and basic mantra to withdraw sensory awareness. Practicing a range of relaxation techniques with visualisation and guided imagery.

Part 2:

Becoming an Exceptional Teacher

This is so much more than a teacher training.  It is a leadership training that will empower you to show up bigger in every area of your life. You will leave our program ready to lead a carefully curated practice, with your own flare and style. No cookie cutter teachers here. Our commitment is in fully supporting you every step along the way in becoming the teacher you are capable of becoming.

We have created a multi style training that honours yoga roots, looks in depth at yoga philosophy and combines modern movement science through a compassionate lense, in order to for you to become a successful and confident teacher. 

​

We will go above and beyond the Yoga Alliance 200h requirements (you will graduate with 250hrs on completion) in order to get in all the good stuff in, and so you can become a confident, successful teacher. 

​

This empowerment program is about being up to something bigger than yourself. It is a fully comprehensive, and exceptionally impactful 250-hour Hatha & Vinyasa Teacher Training.

Please note that Yoga is not governed or regulated. Yoga Alliance is not a governing body for Yoga, nor does the YA guarentee a training to be well led.

​

You will need a certificate from a yoga school for insurance and job applications, which you will receive upon completion. You can then join the Yoga Alliance registry with this certificate should you wish to do so. Whether or not I am a part of YA is irrelevant to your joining ability. This course goes above and beyond the 200hr hour requirements of a YA training.

​
