The entire total body yoga community offers you honest, loving support from day one as we pride ourselves on being completely inclusive. This program is a safe haven: a nurturing sanctuary to engage in open minded self-exploration. We are devoted to offering you an atmosphere in which freedom of expression, creativity and passion for life are "totally" encouraged! Our program covers the foundations of the 8 Limbed path of Yoga and how to effectively teach using your most authentic voice. The emphasis will be on teaching to the heart of the student in a dynamic yet unpretentious way through a marriage of creative vinyasa techniques, disciplined asana and life philosophy.

CERTIFIED TEACHER TRAINING GRADUATES 2010
