This module is part of Inlet Yoga’s 300-hr Advanced Seasonal Yoga™ Teacher Training. It is run in 20-hour modules spaced throughout the year. It is a pay as you go system picking and choosing the modules that serve you. You are not required to take all modules in order to attend this Anatomy and Movement training. We do ask that you have completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training – if you have not completed a 200-hour training, please contact me to discuss options.
“The goal is not to “cure” or to provide therapy but to understand the issues and to help students continue their practice as they work with medical professionals and or heal themselves.”
