Expand your teaching skills through an exploration of asana, adjustments and sequencing that go beyond an initial 200 hour yoga teacher training. This is a fun course, designed to free up your teaching too, helping you to step a little out of routine and structure in order to find your unique style as a yoga teacher.

Exploring some slightly more advanced asanas and how to teach them to mixed level students (you do not need to be able to do all the poses, don’t worry) will help you to see these asanas in a playful way. Gain more confidence in adjustments and assists, considering approaches that allow for physical cues without feeling intrusive. Break down sequencing, looking at ways to spice up your lessons and free you from rigid structure.

As you delve into these more advanced yoga teaching skills, you’ll be invited to consider “what is advanced yoga anyway” and how you can bring a little more of yoga’s fullness into your classes. Sometimes we assume it’s all about the ‘advanced’ asanas, but we know yoga is so much more than this.
