Are you interested in becoming a yoga teacher? Are you already a yoga teacher and are looking for a nationally recognized certification? Just want to deepen your personal practice? Then this training is for you!
The PranaVinyasa School of Yoga is offering the Yoga Alliance 200 hour teacher training here in Tallahassee. This page offers you the details.
Location: Journeys In Yoga studio at 111 South Magnolia Drive Suite 34 in Tallahassee
The trainers: This training will be brought to you by the PranaVinyasa (pranavinyasa.org) School of Yoga based in Tampa Florida, a Yoga Alliance Registered school. Sara Devi and Vaz Rogbeck between them have decades of experience in all aspects of yoga. They offer all of their knowledge while fostering discussion and providing a supportive medium in which to learn. You will learn about postures, history, philosophy, breath work and meditation, as well as other helpful information to assist you on your teaching journey. At the completion of this training you will be a certified yoga teacher and you will be qualified to register with the Yoga Alliance (yogaalliance.org).
Format: The basic training curriculum is set by the Yoga Alliance and PranaVinyasa has followed their guidelines to ensure that you will meet the qualifications to register with that organization upon completion of the program. The training will occur over 10 weekends, occurring once a month (usually the first weekend of the month), each lasting Friday through Sunday for a total of 18 hours for the weekend. Each workshop contains a specific number of hours in techniques, methodology, anatomy, philosophy and practicum as defined by Yoga Alliance. Therefore, full attendance at each workshop is required or a makeup (tutored) session must scheduled. If you are unable to attend a workshop in Tallahassee, you may attend workshops offered in Tampa and Saint Petersburg. We will also schedule make up sessions in Tallahassee for those in need of training hours. It is not required that you start at the beginning of our 2009 training. You may begin at any time with the understanding that you will not be able to complete the training until at least 2010 unless you attend trainings in Tampa or Saint Petersburg. You are required to have 180 contact hours from the same school in order to become certified and register with the Yoga Alliance.
Times (subject to change): Friday from 7 pm to 10 pm, Saturday from 11:30 am to 8:30 pm, and Sunday from 11:30 am to 5:30 pm.
Style of Yoga: A blend of breath work, meditation and postures based in flow and Ashtanga styles of yoga. However, this training will give you the skills to create your own style or to draw on other styles of yoga that speak to you.
