Yoga Teacher Training Q&A (Free)
Are you curious about our Yoga Teacher Training or the Deep Dive in General? (Note: about half of trainees take the training for deeper study and have not interest in teaching) There’s no commitment. Whether you are interested in yoga teaching, in deepening your practice or study of yoga, or simply want to see what it’s all about, come with your questions and your ears.
We will begin by giving an overview of the Training, from the most practical parts to the deeper process and philosophy. Then we will explore your questions. Come and get a sense of what it’s all about!

Wisdom Circle
This is an Intermediate Level Circle: We recommend having participated in at least 2 - 5 (non-beginner) circles before attending. In this 3 hour session, we will start with a circle exactly as we do in the Monthly Circling Lab. This will get us “warmed up” and put us in a place of the meditative space of connection before we move into the second half to use circling tools to explore the enactment of wisdom.
We use the tools of circling to have conversations about things that matter with a life well lived. More than a philosophical conversation, we will be exploring aliveness as it moves through our discourse.

YACEP : Teaching Chair Yoga
Teaching Chair Yoga with Introduction to Teaching Simple Meditation
Chair Yoga is a great way to introduce people to Yoga and meditation, particularly in a secular setting such as a school, library, or corporate health program, or in locations where setting out Yoga mats is impractical. Also, these simple practices make you feel so good, it is also a great way to bring more experienced students back to the basics.
Another important aspect is Chair Yoga's ACCESSIBILITY. It's important for Yoga teachers to be able to teach simple but powerful Yoga classes to beginners, older students, and others who have difficulty with some of the modern class formats. This Yoga teacher clinic will focus on some simple but effective warm-ups, stretches, and other practices that can be done in a chair and standing. In addition to the "exercises for joints and glands" we will include some simple pranayama, meditation, and other relaxation techniques. Participants will have the opportunity to share favorites of their own.
Schedule
9 am : Welcome, introduction, discussion on teaching Chair Yoga,
with meditation, pranayama, and pratyahara.
9:30a : Chair Yoga class and practice
11am : Q&A and additional discussion, and sharing or additional Chair Yoga practices
11:30a : Adjourn
