Course Description:

'' Hatha Yoga is the backbone of Yoga culture and of whole living. Ha means sun and Tha means moon which is the art of balancing these subtle life energies. We all know the importance of having a strong, healthy, vital body that energizes and frees the mind to explore its own depths. The Training curriculum ensures the participant will understand Yoga’s “roots�and precisely how the asanas work to produce remarkable results in maintaining health, youth and longevity. You will learn about performing asanas correctly and how to instruct and adjust others. You will learn pranayama, the power of breath, how to instruct and the mistakes to avoid. We assist you with developing your own personal practice and in developing your teaching presentation. There are practice teaching and small group feedback-practice sessions. Participants learn several Yoga forms as well as The Flow Series, an empowering vinyasa Yoga sequence which combines asana, pranayama and meditation.

Our approach evolves out of years of study, personal practice and experience with thousands of students. It is a synthesis of our insights and discoveries and includes what we consider to be the best from leading forms of Hatha Yoga practiced today. We use Iyengar’s precision and alignment, classical Yoga’s traditional wisdom, Krishnamacharya and Pattabhi Jois’ vinyasa, Joel Kramer’s lines of energy and edges and Ujjayi breath Yoga. Not bound to any specific form, you will be encouraged to learn to use what is appropriate for you and your students and to develop a teaching style that is sensitive and evolving.
