Students will receive a training manual with the above teachings, sequences for various intentions and learn how to teach with or without certain props (straps, bolsters, blocks & cushions). Students will have required readings & essays to write as well as well as complete post-training practice teaching. Graduates will receive a Yoga Alliance certificate of completion.
