Yoga is taking on a wider role in modern life; an expansion beyond the Yoga classroom into all areas of our community as a vehicle for wellness, healing and personal transformation. Integrative Yoga Therapy is a pioneer and leader in training Yoga professionals who can bring the ancient insights of Yoga into mainstream wellness programs.
Our programs are based on a vision of health as a unity of body, mind and spirit. Yoga is a vehicle for deepening this experience of Unity and bringing it into the world as a resource for personal growth, healing and awakening.
The 200hr Therapeutic Yoga Teacher Program is for those who want to teach Yoga as a healing art. You will learn to teach Yoga for a wide range of complementary settings including health care as well as Yoga classes for the general public. This program is open to anyone with a basic foundation in Yoga and is especially suitable for body-workers, health care professionals and all therapists.
This program is registered with the Yoga Alliance as a basic 200-hour Teacher Training certification program (RYT-200).
2012 PROGRAM DATES
Our non-residential teacher training has been designed to accommodate our students and their busy lifestyles. We meet weekly for our training to dive into meditation and to allow our training group to check-in on a weekly basis. We then meet once a month for an extended weekend where we dive into the philosophy, history and asana portion of the training and we will take part in the Chakra Workshop Series for 2 hours of immersing ourselves into each chakra. We end the training with an extended weekend immersion up at our retreat center in Lenado, CO. It’s a wonderful way to finish this amazing experience of transformation!
The training covers 6 months – January – June 2012.
The weekend dates are: Jan. 13-15; Feb. 10-12; Mar. 9-11; Apr. 20-22; May 18-20; and June 14-17 (in Lenado). During these weekends we will meet on Fridays from 4-8pm, Saturdays from 8am-8pm and Sundays from 8am-5pm at True Nature Healing Arts except the last weekend which will be in Lenado.
