Hybrid 200-Hour Trauma-Informed YYT: Online + 10 Day In-Person Immersion in Montezuma.


Hybrid Trauma-Informed 200-Hour YTT!

Join us virtually for the first half of this training before you meet us in person for 10 days to continue your study in Costa Rica! Learn concrete techniques for teaching Yoga, Meditation, and Pranayama in any setting. Every aspect of the training curriculum is covered through a trauma-informed lens including the yoga sutras, yoga anatomy, as well as the art and technique of teaching yoga asana. The primary themes of this Trauma-Informed 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training are to de-stigmatize and de-pathologize trauma, mental health challenges, and emotional discomfort. In this training, we come to understand that Yoga is much more than the hour or two we spend on our yoga mats — it’s a means to engage in self contemplation and then explore ways we can be in service.

“This training offered an impressive depth of knowledge - yoga philosophy, social justice, trauma-informed language, asana and physical safety, and the deeper responsibility of stepping into the role of a yoga teacher. The hybrid format worked beautifully; beginning online allowed us to build a solid foundation and meaningful connections, so by the time we arrived in person, it felt like we were already a community. Overall, this was a life-changing and incredibly well-rounded introduction to teaching yoga.”
