Deepen your personal yoga practice, further your knowledge of yoga, or share your love of yoga with others while learning the foundations, history, spiritual components and philosophy of the practice. You don't need to be an experienced yogi or even want to be a teacher. Our program is a great opportunity for personal growth and reflection, explore your practice and gain a deeper understanding of yoga poses, history, anatomy and philosophy.

In this introductory program, you will study the Yamas and Niyamas, The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and Baron Baptiste’s Journey Into Power. Students will receive instruction and exposure to:

  • Yoga Asanas

  • Pranayama

  • Meditation

  • Anatomy

  • Yoga Teaching

  • Creative Yoga Sequencing

  • Assisting and Pose Variations

  • Trauma Informed Yoga

  • Chakra study

  • Gentle & Power Yoga

  • Yin Yoga

  • Restorative Yoga

  • The Business of Yoga Teaching

Prior to graduation, students will teach a free demonstration class open to the Roots community, family and friends.
