ADVANCED YOGA TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAM

We are so very fortunate in our area that there is a lot of good yoga.  This is great for yoga students as they can pick and choose the classes and teachers with whom they want to study.  As a teacher it means that you have to work not only on your yoga practice, but your yoga teaching skills as well.  There is a lot more to teaching a great yoga class than simply loving yoga and playing "Simon Says" on your mat.

My goal is to help yoga teachers develop themselves professionally to become better teachers by offering programs on: refining their ability to see alignment, offer fabulous assists, understand relevant anatomy and physiology, create curriculum to help students make progress, find their special niche for teaching from their passion, expand their offerings to supplement their income streams, offer the benefits of yoga to people who may not be able to attend public classes, and more.

This program is modular.  You may take any section individually, or you may take the whole thing together in order to register with Yoga Alliance for your E-RYT 500. The first modules are coming up!

The first weekday module is:

The Language and Tools of Alignment - It starts with Tadasana.

Gain a deep understanding of the principles of alignment. In this module you will develop your eyes to see Tadasana in every pose. From the moment your students take a seat on their mats, your eyes will be trained to see and understand what their particular challenges are and you will be given the tools and knowledge to learn how to help them.

Class begins Wednesday, January 4 and meets every Wednesday for 6 weeks until February 8, from 12:30 to 6:00 pm
