RYT-200 Teacher Training
For anyone looking to dive deeper into yoga studies and serve others by teaching.
This unique, carefully designed 200-hour Teacher Training program may be just what you’re looking for.
With so many disappointments and restrictions this year, many of us have been left longing for something more: something hopeful and purposeful.
Why not make 2021 the year that you take a risk and do something for you?
In select years, Flowing Tree Yoga offers an RYT-200 Yoga Teacher Training course that is registered with Yoga Alliance (RYS-200) for those who want to hone their own yoga practice and learn to share that with others. Anna’s background and formal training in yoga comes from a trauma-informed perspective, which she shares with her students in this course. Designed as an intimate, mentor-based approach to learning yoga, select student teachers will learn the foundations of therapeutic yoga. This course is crafted in the Hatha Kripalu lineage of yoga, which honors the wisdom and intuition of each student. Students walk away with an in-depth understanding of yoga practice and are certified to teach at basic levels. Though the course is virtual, due to continued pandemic restrictions, Anna believes wholeheartedly in the presence of an active and engaged teacher and thus only offers instruction in real time. This is the only 200-hour teacher training in Eastern Washington led by a Certified Yoga Therapist.
A Yoga Teacher Training Course is a courageous step for anyone and is not for everyone. If you’re intrigued by the idea of a deep-dive into yoga practice, but do not feel drawn to teaching at this time, the new Yoga Enrichment Course is a wonderful way to honor yourself, enhance your practice, and participate in something new and with less time and financial commitment. Students in the Yoga Enrichment Course will study yoga philosophy, learn pranayama (breathwork), prana vayus (energy channels), chakras (energy centers), mudras(hand gestures) and the koshas (layers of dimension of being), but will not receive formal training in functional anatomy or teaching techniques, and will not receive a teacher certificate.
This is the year to do something for you. Enhance your yoga practice by participating in one of our Yoga Immersion Experiences.
As an added bonus, students who sign up by December 15 will have the cost of their textbooks covered with tuition. Students who register after December 15 will be responsible for paying for their own books in addition to tuition. ($150 value for the Teacher Training and $50 for the Yoga Enrichment Course.)
