Teacher Training Intensives through FLORIDA YOGA ACADEMY

Become a Certified Yoga Instructor through a combination of practical application and Yoga Study.

The Intensive Program is structured in tiers that may be ‘stand alone’ certifications or foundations to be built upon as interest and need develops.

The program is under the direction of Virginia Williamson and Inga Balciuniene.

It reflects a classical teaching approach, firmly rooted in the teachings of Patanjali as specified in the Yoga Sutras and is strongly connected to the teachings of Sri T. Krishnamacharya, the source of many of the contemporary methods of Yoga practice.

Each Intensive covers these topics in level-appropriate depth: Philosophy, Physical and Subtle Anatomy, Self-Practice, Asana, Pranayama, Meditation, Ayurveda and Miscellaneous topics required for entering the field at a professional level.

Tuition: $600 ( $550 early bird registration) per Intensive includes certification, supervision, evaluations of homework assignments, observation & assessment of class or classes taught by you.

Tuition fee does not include additional asana classes, Study Sessions or cost of books on required reading list.

Books:

Required titles must be purchased or borrowed by you prior to commencement of the Training Intensive.
