300 hr Conscious Alignment Advanced Training
Are you a health professional or yoga teacher looking to learn more about yourself and patterns as a provider and leader, realign to your deepest desire, and redefine your career and personal life? You’ll leave feeling reconnected with your own body, aligned to your purpose, and ready to enrich your teaching with hands-on adjustments and integrated leadership skills.
The Conscious Alignment Advanced Training is a 21-day, 300 hour advanced training program for the serious student and yoga teacher looking for an opportunity to:
expand the possibilities for your teaching and your life
learn effective and integrated hands-on assists, and the reasons behind them
experience real-time feedback and results of your support in a yoga class
lead and instruct precise body alignment in a workshop format
refine your presentation, language, and teaching skills
explore your relationship to your own personal body intelligence, reactivity, and proprioception
reignite your own personal practice and gain more flexibility and strength in all aspects of life
discover what blocks you from deeper connection and intimacy
This advanced training starts before, and runs concurrently with, our foundational 200-hour Human Journey teacher training.
This format offers the Conscious Alignment student an opportunity to wear many hats; exploring your breadth and depth as a student, mentor, leader, and teacher:
BE A STUDENT: The first 7 days you'll practice being a student again with full days of learning and unlearning, letting go of that which no longer serves you, and building confidence in the areas that do.
BE A MENTOR: The next 7 days, you'll serve as a mentor and leader to the 200 hour YTT students through cultivating and modelling lifelong learning, leadership, and relationship skills via hands-on assists, posture clinics, classes, and workshops.
BE A TEACHER: The last 7 days, you'll expound on your newly developed skills and authentic delivery as a (newly defined) teacher. You’ll receive invaluable feedback for growth from some of the most experienced teachers in the field.
Our programs have the ability to give you what you say you want in life. However, it will take a conscious effort and decision on your part to be open to feedback and the teachings, and consistently find the lesson and the learning.
Hearing feedback can be uncomfortable and challenging at times. We offer it with the intention of supporting you in becoming an effective and authentic yoga teacher and leader. It’s also a rare opportunity to receive invaluable feedback in order to move past your blocks and find clarity, purpose and possibility on the other side. If you’re ready to do the inner work, then this program can be life-changing.
