200 HOUR YOGA TEACHERS in TRAINING: The Foundation—Theory & Practice
In this multi-faceted program we study the tree of yoga from the roots up. We learn Yoga’s history and philosophy from the Ancient Vedas to the Modern Yoga Schools of our times. The practice leads us into a deep understanding of our bodies. Through the Anusara Principles of Alignment we learn to move in a safe and dynamic way through a wide variety of asanas, while pranayama and meditation take us to a deeper level of inner knowledge. In a supportive environment we grow as a friendly and creative team, nurturing a softer heart, a more vibrant dynamic body, and a sharp mind, thus developing all essential aspects of ourselves. This program lays the foundation of Yoga Theory and Practice, and gives you the very first tools for expanding from a strong practice into teaching. The program includes:
1. Anusara® Immersions 1-3 100 hours
2. Yoga History, Philοsophy 20 hours
3. Αnatomy for Yoga: 20 hours

5. Yogic-Life Retreat, and/or Anusara Teacher Training: 30+ hours
