You will explore how to modify poses for different abilities, create safe and supportive sequences, and incorporate mindful breathing and relaxation practices.

FAQs:
Can I do the training online?
Practical experience will be an essential part of our Yoga Teacher Training. You will learn how to safely enter and exit poses and make adjustments most effectively in person. Additionally, since some topics will be quite deep, face-to-face conversations will help ensure clearer communication and a smoother flow of discussion. If you have any limitations or concerns, please feel free to contact the studio.
