Curriculum

 

  • Vinyasa: The Seven Doorways 
    • The Vinyasa class sequencing within the 7 Doorway method is rhythmic and responsible. It’s intuitive nature is the groundwork for all that we will touch physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.


  • Intuitive Sequencing
    • Learn to break down each flow and discover exactly why and how the pieces fit together. Discover breath as the bridge from thinking to feeling. Apply the 5 Elements of Nature for exceptional results.


  • Acro Yoga & Inversion Practice
    • The profound effects of Inversion Therapy and partner work ( of many kinds ) are both integral in a well balanced practice and community experience. Seeing ourselves and others from a new perspective is an exceptional tool. 


  • Community Outreach / Teaching Yoga
    • We will ensure that you leave the training feeling confident to teach. The art of giving and receiving feedback are relied on heavily to draw out the certainty our students demand! 


  • The Lineage & History of Yoga
    • We will begin at the root of an ancient practice and enter into discussion of how Yoga has come to where we are at today, in the present. Ethical Responsibility (Ahimsa) will be considered along with the 5 Precepts

Today, Jonah is a well traveled ashtanga/vinyasa teacher whose classes are both graceful and intense. Impermanence, compassion and humility are just a few of the elements that Jonah seamlessly weaves through each healing practice.

Become A Yogi Teacher Training was an absolute DREAM!!! It’s truly hard to put those 18 days into words. The experience was transformational. Jonah, Renae, Heidi, and Marco are very knowledgeable individuals who provided an incredible amount of insight in their areas of expertise. I couldn’t imagine the trip without them. We learned and practiced a lot which allowed us to walk away from the experience feeling confident about sharing yoga with the world. All the students, now teachers, who attended were absolutely amazing!! Some life long friendships were definitely made. <3 I highly recommend signing up and investing in yourself. It’s your time!!

We had a great time together, it was an honor to be part of becomeayogi with Jonah, Renae and Heidi. I learned a lot, I improved the way a connect with my breath, I gained confidence and knowledge on how to teach and met a lot of wonderful people. The food was incredible and the place was magical.

The single most transformational Yoga training i’ve ever been to. Jonah created the perfect environment for growth and expansion. The training was world class and everything felt intentionally curated to prioritize the students and their connection. From the location, food, morning meditations and the overall curriculum, it is literally impossible not to grow when you’re here. Through this training I feel like I have found my Yoga family and a happy home within my mind. Thank you for this next-level training Jonah.

We had a great time! The hotel was excellent, easy check in, friendly staff, very clean and comfortable rooms. The resort itself was so beautiful and the food was wonderful. Daily yoga and activities were great. I enjoyed my free time but could have used more structure, too much free time at times. It would have been nice to have options for other optional activities and meals.

Choosing to travel with Jonah is one of the best travel choices I have made. He is genuine, down-to-earth, and makes you feel at ease no matter where you are. His retreats and yoga teacher trainings are world-class. He carefully plans each experience to make it one you will never forget. He is also magnet for the most incredible people; you are sure to also walk away with relationships you'll treasure for life. You cannot go wrong by attending one of his events.
