200 hour Yoga Teacher Training
Intelligent Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga
with Jonni-lyn Friel and Guest Teachers
Overview
Hemma Yoga and Acupuncture is pleased to be collaborating with Namaha Yoga School in order to offer a Yoga Teacher Training. This Intensive Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga Teacher training will guide you through a transformational experience of both body and spirit. The style of Vinyasa taught is joyful, challenging and uses the precision of alignment, while allowing you to flow through the Vinyasa tradition. Hatha is a broad term used to describe all styles of yoga that use physical movement. In this training, we will teach Hatha through sequencing to be a more static style of yoga and accessible to a wide range of people. Through this particular approach of teaching yoga, we learn how to connect seemingly different asanas together with integrity and alignment; how to link in an intelligent way, things that may seem independent of each other into a dynamic, exciting flow; how to create and leave space between the movements and mindful transitions. This is where the creativity and joy come into teaching! This will also help you as a teacher to easily adapt to different levels of students and class planning in a safe and skilful way. As a Yoga Teacher you will leave feeling confident in creating different levels of Vinyasa classes as well as more traditional Hatha Yoga classes, teaching meditation and pranayama, as well as Dharma talks.
