This integrative approach considers yoga as an educational process that draws forth the wisdom of the Spiritual Heart, the Intellect, the Emotions, and the Body in ever-expanding and creative expressions.
Over the past few years, students have asked for a training program that would help them:
- deepen their philosophical understanding,
- clarify their anatomical knowledge,
- enhance their ability to teach alignment in asana with both inspiration and precision,
- and provide a personal learning community for support and connection.
Taught from basic principles, not rigid dogma, this program is perfect for teachers who want to learn the context of practice and teaching methods and who are willing to work with concepts over time so that they grow increasingly able to express their understanding authentically rather than mechanically.
This program is for you if:
- *You want to develop yourself through practice, study, and community;
- *You completed a 200-hour program that left you feeling like you just scratched the surface of yoga and teaching yoga;
- *You can’t travel for trainings and workshops, and you still want to expand your knowledge and continue your education;
- *Online study has been hard for you due to tie constraints, long lectures, and appointments to keep.
- *You want a structure in which to learn with the freedom to incorporate the teaching according to your own individual needs and perspectives;
- *You are looking for new and creative ways to approach teacher training in your community. Experienced teachers will appreciate the clarity and depth of Christina’s presentation and will find their own capacity will expand as a result of the course.
Basic Format
The Online Training is divided into four six-week modules: 1.) Aim High, 2.) The Pulse, 3.) Life at the Core, and 4.) The Offering.
The first week of each module will have a philosophical emphasis. The second week will focus on Anatomical/Alignment principles. The third week will emphasize Asana Studies. The fourth week will prioritize Teaching Methods. Each module will incorporate two full weeks of integration to allow you time to optimize your learning without falling behind or getting overwhelmed. Christina will provide optional, suggested homework assignments to assist you in deepening your understanding throughout the course.
