Skills and wisdom for creating the best possible experience of life.
This program is designed to give you skills and understanding that you can use now AND that will continue to deepen and unfold over time. The curriculum is resilience-focused. What that means in a practical sense is that the starting place is of acknowledgment of the traumas potentially being held by yourself and your students. This allows for these amazing practices to be applied in a way that is most supportive of the holistic freedom of the practitioner. The intention is not to just perfect poses but to establish a strong foundation of understanding of all 8 limbs of yoga, be able to practice, and transmit that knowledge compassionately and effectively to others. You will learn how to respond to your students' individual needs rather than how to just teach a set sequence (you'll get one of those too 
).
Topics of study include:
Science of Trauma and Resilience
Asana (posture) breakdown
Meditation
Pranayama (breathwork)
8 Limbs of Yoga
Chakras
Asana (posture) breakdown
Anatomy for yoga
Sequencing, Voice & Cues & SO MUCH more

**THIS COURSE IS BEING OFFERED ON A DONATION BASIS AT THIS TIME. The reason I have chosen to do this is that these skills are particularly helpful for times of stress and trauma like we are collectively experiencing now. I have always valued equitable access. I know that during this time there are a great many people who have found themselves suddenly without a job and therefore less financially stable than may be normally true. Please consider that we are all in this together and pay what you can. Those who are able to donate more make the program more accessible for those not currently able to contribute as much financially.
There is no minimum donation, and it is my intention to not turn anyone away for inability to pay; however, it is expected that all students will make an investment whether monetary, energetic, or some combination of those. Payment plans are available and flexible. We will figure it out together.
The value of this training is $3500. This information is provided for reference only, please see above regarding the donation status of this training session.
**IMPORTANT NOTE: There have been many donation-based trainings offered in recent weeks. I have been asked often what makes this training program different than those. This training differs from many of those in that it is a complete training with live hours versus prerecorded videos that you will watch on your own. This allows the training to be deeper, meet the individual needs of the students, and support the cultivation of a strong and supportive community among other things.
