Interested in deepening your practice and learning how to teach others?...
100hr. Meditation Teacher training
Meditation in the yoga tradition is a universal practice. It is a science of precise techniques and principles for resting the mind. These essential teachings and practices follow a particular order to create a relaxed focus, helping to clear the clutter obstructing our perceptual view, allowing us to live more fully and connected to each moment. Beyond guiding of relaxation or imagery, meditative state (one pointed focus) is something we are able to find anytime, through seated practice for daily nourishment and cleansing, as well as oneness in each moment of our lives.
Through this 100 hour certification program you will create a strong foundation of yoga theory and principal techniques that will deepen your personal meditation practice, help you learn how to guide others inward, discover how to teach others to establish their own practice, be able to teach all levels, and learn how to infuse different modalities into your teachings and practice.
