I call this training Land and Heart Practice as a reminder of our connection to the land. Yoga transcends cultures and is practiced by all kinds of people because it teaches a universal truth:
We are all connected through heartfelt feeling to the land and to each other.
Whether that connection is in-person or online, you will examine your Land and Heart Practice by connecting to yourself and to your environment. You are participating digitally, but there will be opportunity to connect to your environment – whatever that may be! Backyard, patio, trail nearby….
How does the program work?
There are nine modules in Land and Heart 200hour Yoga Teacher Training.
Each module has a corresponding assignment.
You will find and submit your assignments in Google Classroom.
Each module has a corresponding set of asana (poses).
By examining one group of poses per module, you will enhance your understanding of how asana and philosophy fit together.
- Introduction: Sun Salutations
- Wheel of Yoga: Standing Poses
- Eight Limbs of Yoga: Arm Balances
- Yoga Anatomy: Seated Poses
- Meditation: Backbends
- Teaching Methodology: Inversions

Online Yoga Teacher Training: use the power of global communication to analyze the ideas of yoga with people in different environments than your own.
