200-HOUR TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAM

Teacher Training is offered in a 200-hour certification program leading to a Yoga Alliance R.Y.T. The program consists of one weekend per month for six months, plus required weekly yoga classes, assisting master teachers in their classes, and home study. The training is balanced according to the standards of the Yoga Alliance and includes 141 hours of Techniques (some of which will come from regularly scheduled classes during the week), 30 hours of Teaching Methodology, 21 hours of Yoga Anatomy and Physiology, 30 hours of Philosophy, Lifestyle, and Ethics and 19 hours of Practicum — 180 hours are "contact" hours spent in the presence of your instructors, and 53 hours will be "non-contact", (reading, home practice, etc.) This adds up to a total of 223 hours (exceeds Yoga Alliance requirements.) The instructors are Susan Morton, M.S., E-R.Y.T., and Susan Wilson, E-R.Y.T. Please see faculty biographical information on our website.

Our graduates are trained in classical hatha yoga with a holistic approach that includes physical, mental, and spiritual understanding of asana, pranayama, and meditation. We teach in the spirit of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali which are an essential aspect of our studies. We feel that it is a great privilege and sacred responsibility to pass on to our students the art and science of the teaching of yoga as we have come to understand it through our years of practice and study.

The Teacher Training will be offered again in 2010, dates to be announced.

Our training is limited to ten students. We require a minimum of 2 years of yoga study and practice. The cost of the training is $3000.
