Foundational
Yoga Teacher Training
Topics covered include yoga tradition, history, and philosophy as well as anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics as they relate to yoga asana, breathwork, meditation and regulating the nervous system. The course sets modern yoga teachers up for success with lectures covering the essentials of the business
of yoga and legal information all yoga teachers should know.
Starting July 2024
This foundational, hatha yoga teacher training is a deep dive into learning more about yourself and your personal yoga practice while empowering you as a teacher. It’s designed to foster new teachers and enhance the knowledge base and skill set of existing teachers. Individuals who have no intention of teaching yoga are also encouraged to join the course and teaching mentorship sessions will be replaced by individual yoga classes and coaching.
Students will be provided with thought-provoking questions and readings to spark interactive discussion. Information shared through lectures will be embodied in a daily movement practice integrating the concepts taught. A small group setting, limited to five trainees, guarantees one-on-one coaching with Marsha.
You will leave with an understanding of the many aspects of a yoga practice, both on and off the mat, and the confidence to teach accessible, well rounded, and unique yoga classes.
