Most 200 hour yoga teacher trainings cover some of the basics of yoga philosophy - this might include the Yoga Sutras and the eight limbs, the different paths of yoga, or perhaps the concept of Self and Universal Consciousness. However, usually this is just offered as an introduction, beginning to open your awareness to Yoga in its fullness.

This course takes yoga philosophy on to the next step, now that you have the foundations of teaching yoga and the space to go deeper. Throughout the course you’ll dive into some key yogic texts, philosophical concepts and frameworks, learning how to share this in your classes and bring them into your own life. This adds a new dimension to your teaching, and to your own yoga practice.
