Ongoing support is offered during home study through a Facebook group, email, and phone access. Lessons completed at home are reviewed, discussed, and put into practice.
Daily sessions include detailed instruction and practice in various styles of Hatha Yoga such as Vinyasa Flow, Restorative and Yin.
The training includes philosophy, meditation, mantra, pranayama, anatomy, asana and teaching skills as part of the comprehensive curriculum.
