Restorative Yoga Teacher Training

6 CEUs- Yoga Alliance: Learn to practice and guide yourself and students through an incredible process of restoration for body, mind, and spirit.

ABOUT

Restorative Yoga is a deeply compassionate practice that flows from the teacher’s heart to the student’s, transcending words and resting solely on intention. It is a practice of true restoration—returning us to our natural state of balance and ease. As Judith Lasater, Ph.D., describes, Restorative Yoga serves as an antidote to the overwhelming stress that has become so prevalent in modern life, with stress-related conditions reaching epidemic levels.


Teaching Restorative Yoga benefits not only the students but also the teacher. To guide others in the art of relaxation and surrender, a teacher must have personally experienced this profound state of release. Restorative Yoga is ideal for those overwhelmed by stress, as well as for beginners or individuals unable to engage in more physically demanding yoga styles. This practice offers many of the same benefits as traditional asana, while providing complete support and comfort throughout.

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.
