Teacher Training


Sharing your love of yoga with others is an extraordinary experience, it is both fullfilling and a great way to deepen the understanding of your own practice. At Yoga Tropics we offer a 200 hour teacher training. We meet as a group twice per week for 10 weeks to complete theory and technical training of the practice, then you'll develop as a teacher over the following months by teaching mock classes and shadowing other teachers. Throughout the training you will deepen your knowledge of the Yoga Tropics 1 series and explore some of the postures of the Tropics 2 series. As a teacher, we don't want you just to teach postures, but rather teach students to incorporate their breath, movements, and intentions to experience a challenging, healing, and meditative practice.

By the end of your training you will have:

- Learned to guide students through a safe and challenging Tropics 1 class.
- Developed an understanding of the physiology and anatomy of the postures.
- Learned how to teach breathing techniques and how to incorporate them with asana practice.
- Explored the basic history and theory of yoga.
- Developed your teaching skills, speaking to a group, demonstrating, adjusting, etc.

Having a developed personal practice is great, but being able to guide someone else through a practice gives you a whole new perspective.

If you have any questions call or e-mail carla@yogatropics.com

Next Teacher Training is Spring of 2009. Exact dates TBD.
