Monday Evening Intensives
8 Mondays, Monthly: February-August, 6-9pm
with Joyce Anue
The ability to assess through observation becomes the basis for adapting the practices of yoga asana for each individual. Teaching then arises out of a natural response to what one sees, hears, feels, intuits or senses from the student rather than from an abstract mental concept of what yoga is or should be.
—Joyce Anue
Additional electives with our extended faculty allow teachers to specialize in a chosen area of focus like teaching yoga for cardiac health, chronic illness, stress management or restorative yoga.

Essence of the Yoga Sutra
5 Tuesdays: April 1-29, 7-9pm
with Rev. Ellen Grace O’Brian
Strongly influenced by her studies with BKS Iyengar and several of his senior teachers, (Ramanand Patel, Judith Lasater and Kofi Busia), she received her Iyengar teaching certification in 1988. Joyce is further inspired by the work of TKV Desikachar and senior teachers in the viniyoga tradition. The study and integration of the nondual teachings as shared with her by Richard Miller and Gangaji have also been invaluable in her understanding of yoga.
This Level Two Teacher Training (500 hr) certificate program, recognized by Yoga Alliance, requires a serious commitment to the path of yoga as a lifestyle.

The first four weekend modules (I-IV) focus on specific regions of the body. In addition to active and passive asanas, warm-ups and gentle range of motion exercises, we will study anatomy, posture modification, adjusting and conscious touch, postural and joint analysis, history taking and pathology. In module V, our focus will be more in the energetic and emotional bodies. We will begin to work with the chakra model in greater depth.

Assistants spend 1.5 hours Saturday afternoons with instructors in preparations for the Sunday morning asana sessions with the whole group from 9am-12(noon). Assistants depart after lunch and a brief meeting at approximately 2 pm.
In addition to learning and integrating principles of practice of the groups of postures that we are studying each month, we will also see how yoga philosophy is inextricably tied to our asana practice. These workshops are largely experiential (90%) and are designed to help you deepen in your own personal practice as well as gain a better understanding of how to build, sequence and if you’re a teacher how to teach these postures.
