The Yamas & Niyamas: On the Mat and Off
An exploration of the Yamas and Niyamas for yoga teachers – Move beyond traditional class theming.

7 students enrolled
Transform your classes from a mere exericise routine into a comprehensive lifestyle choice.
As a teacher, when you weave the philosophical component into your yoga classes, you are laying a foundation for your students to cultivate a lifelong commitment to the ancient discipline.
Philosophy becomes something a student does, not simply hears.

The Intentional Yoga Teacher: Effective Methods for Purposeful Teaching
This continuing education course is designed for experienced yoga teachers who want to move beyond simply leading poses and deepen their effectiveness as educators. Emphasis is placed on teaching movement patterns to teach strength & skill, creating learning-based sequences vs. creativy-based, along with how to integrate mental movement patterns to create a transformative experience. 20 CEUs for Yoga Alliance.

Teaching with intention starts with the outcome.
It begins by asking a simple question:
What do I want my students to learn, develop, or experience today?
This continuing education course is designed for yoga teachers who want to move beyond simply leading poses and deepen their effectiveness as educators.
Rather than asking, “What creative sequence can I teach today?”, we begin with a more impactful question: “What am I helping my students build?”
What To Expect
The course is broken down into 3 units of study:
1 – Teaching Yoga for Strength & Skill
Teaching with intention shifts the focus from achieving shapes to developing skills.
2 – Sequencing for Progress
Intentional teachers sequence with purpose, not novelty.
3 – The Mental Movement Patterns of Yoga
Teaching with intention is not limited to physical skills..
Philosophy is not merely discussed; it is experienced.
Teaching with intention means guiding students toward growth rather than simply leading them through movement.

Peak Pose Sequencing & Beyond: Teaching Strength and Skill
Peak poses should not be the destination. But instead, a result from consistently teaching strength, skill, and intentional movement. This course explores how to design classes that progressively develop the strength, movement patterns, and skills students need to safely and confidently approach more challenging postures.
2 students enrolled
A peak pose is not built
in a single class –
it is developed over weeks, months, and even years through systematic practice.
Creating a peak pose sequence is not simply breaking down a pose and placing a few “prep poses” before the final posture. While preparation in a single class is certainly important, truly preparing students for more complex postures takes strength and skill-building, and an overall deeper understanding of how the body moves within the common movement patterns.
This course explores how to design
classes that progressively develop the strength, mobility, coordination, and movement patterns students need to safely and confidently approach
more challenging postures.
You’ll learn how to identify the physical skills required for a pose and integrate those skills into your classes long before the peak posture ever appears.
Course materials include:
-Downloadable study guides for each
unit of study
-Practice drills and exercises with worksheets
-90-minute sequence blueprint
-Sequences designed for strength
and skill-building
-Progressions for complex poses
-Peak pose class sequence to build from
-Reflective questions for journaling

The Art & Skill of Teaching Power Yoga Online Course
The emphasis on power and intensity can overshadow the core principle of power yoga: everything you do on your mat should help you with everything you do off your mat. Power yoga integrates philosophical principles into the practice in a way that is relevant in today’s modern world; along with a physical practice based on creating balance and accessibility for most. In this course you will learn exactly what power yoga is, and how to teach it with confidence and care.
