With artfully designed architecture, a wood heat fire, and radiant heated floors, the space is perfect for hosting classes, retreats, and training. In the upstairs kitchen and dining area, with its lovely pastoral scenery and views of the redwood forested hills, you will enjoy delicious, healthy lunches together with other students each day.

This teacher training offers students in-depth skills to explore yoga as a vehicle for vibrant health, self transformation, and personal empowerment. The curriculum includes a unique blend of alignment-based Vinyasa flow, a solid foundation in Hatha yoga, and 200 hours of instruction offered within a therapeutic framework. The instruction will cover a wide range of yoga techniques, including yoga postures, anatomy, relaxation, breath awareness, pranayama, meditations to calm the mind, contemplations to transform limiting tendencies into life-affirming thought patterns, and the application of clear principles of alignment in order to create safety, balance, and freedom in yoga poses. Students will explore concepts from Ayurveda, the Upanishads, Patanjali, and the chakra system as frameworks for the application of yoga as a journey towards radiant health and well-being. The asana emphasis will include both level one and two alignments based on Vinyasa flow sequencing, as well as gentler and restorative variations. Rather than offer standard sequencing or rigid methodologies, students will be exposed to frameworks that will inspire each trainee to adopt the practices, awaken their creativity, and find their authentic voice as a teacher. Graduates of this program will feel empowered to teach a variety of yoga class types, including all levels of Vinyasa yoga, alignment-based classes, yoga foundations, senior, gentle, and Restorative. This California immersion program is scheduled as an intensive program. While the program days will be full, the activities of the day will still be kept diverse and active. The days will be a wonderful mix of digesting concepts intellectually, applying the concepts experientially, and diving into the practices of yoga. Care will be taken within the program schedule to ensure that students have a healthy experience both physically and mentally.Soma Yoga Institute promises not to keep you sedentary for too long. There will be physical activity and deep relaxation built into the program every day. <a target='_blank' href="https://somayogainstitute.com/200-california">https://somayogainstitute.com/200-california</a>
