This 7-day program is one segment of an ongoing 200-hour teacher training course offered by Omega and The Hard & The Soft Yoga Institute that prepares you to become a nationally certified yoga teacher. It can also be taken as a stand-alone course for continuing education credits or to deepen an individual yoga practice.
An outstanding opportunity to study with renowned author and yoga pioneer Beryl Bender Birch, this training teaches you how to:
Develop discipline through strong asana, pranayama, and meditation practices
Give therapeutic assists, modifications, and apply healing energies
Convey yogic philosophy and anatomy principles
Apply classical yoga methodology and explore the yogic lifestyle
Build yoga community service projects and strengthen family ties
“Once we have truly awakened, only then can we begin to truly ‘teach yoga’ and take our practice ‘off the mat and into the streets,’” says Birch. “We then can genuinely move from an egocentric, self-centered perspective to an ever-increasing concern for a greater dimension of life as a whole, seeing the universe as ‘not two’ but as a single energy event.”
This training is suitable for those with an established yoga practice and some knowledge of classical Ashtanga Yoga, who wish to deepen their practice or enhance their teaching skills.
