15-16 November, 2025 - 15-hour Creative Sequencing Training
​
This training explores the creative side of vinyasa yoga sequencing. We will explore the framework of the vinyasa practice and how we use that framework as scaffolding to create sequences and flows that are imaginative, dynamic, and intelligent. This continuing education module is for yoga teachers who have completed their 200-hour training and are curious about how to bring something new to their teaching. Whether it is creating sequences that express your unique voice, playing with new ways of moving and flowing, or learning how to surprise yourself, this training aims to spark inspiration as you build your classes. We will explore themes, storytelling, structure, physicality, language, and music, giving you the tools to let your creativity flow.

22-23 November & 6-7 December - 30-hour Hands-On Assisting Training
​
As yoga instructors, we communicate with our students in many ways. One powerful method is using our hands to help deepen a student’s understanding and experience of an asana. In this 30-hour continuing education training, we will explore hands-on assists that emphasize skillful communication, anatomical integrity, and informed consent.
This training is designed for yoga instructors who have completed a 200-hour teacher training and wish to expand their ability to observe, understand, and assist students in their asana practice.

-
Identifying the right moments for assistance
