Students learn asana alignment, intelligent sequencing, and effective teaching methodology – building the skills and confidence to guide others safely and skillfully.
Anatomy and physiology are taught through the lens of yoga teaching anatomy, providing an understanding of movement, function, and energetics. Students are introduced to prana, nadis, vayus, koshas, and the chakra system. With the ability to learn how to sense and guide energetic awareness in practice.
Through teaching clinics, mentorship, and peer practice, participants gain hands-on experience that nurtures both their voice and presence as teachers. By the end of the program, you will have developed a grounded understanding of yoga’s essence and the ability to share it authentically with others.
