Why Teacher Training?
Whether you’re already a teacher, would like to become one, or simply want to deepen your knowledge and experience of yoga, teacher training is a profound and joyful way to learn more about not just yoga, but yourself. Immerse yourself in anatomy, asana, pranayama, meditation and yogic philosophy! ISHTA’s Yoga Alliance certified 200-Hour teacher training program is designed to deepen your understanding of the science of yoga. The ISHTA style of yoga, integrating the principles of Hatha yoga for anatomy and alignment; Tantric philosophy for a nondualistic, joyful approach to the physical and subtle bodies and the pranayama, meditation and philosophy we use to explore them; and Ayurveda to understand and embrace each yogi’s unique spirit and needs, leads to a uniquely holistic education that is both broad and deep. Whether you plan to make a career out of teaching yoga or are simply looking to evolve your own practice, this program will expand your yoga not just on your mat but throughout your life.
