A Deep Dive Into Our 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program

In this episode of Mat Chats, we unroll our mats and catch up on what's happening in our lives. Jamie shares that her parents are coming into town, she's managing two youth sports tournaments, and she's still in the final stages of updating the living room. Bobbi had a full day with a presentation at LHS, followed by a dermatology appointment where she had a few things frozen off her face—keeping it real, as always! For our main topic, we're diving into the details of our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training. While the training is designed for those who want to become yoga teachers, it's also a powerful journey for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of the practice. The program includes weekly teaching opportunities, a curated reading list with book club-style discussions, and online anatomy coursework. We also explore yoga philosophy through lectures and group discussions, and build connection through fun group activities. Students will go on unique field trips, like visiting a cadaver lab and a Hindu temple, and hear from a variety of guest speakers on topics like Ayurveda, kids' yoga, legal considerations, and more. We also have an exciting announcement: YTT signups will be launching soon! In this episode, we give a sneak peek at pricing and what's included, so stay tuned if you're thinking about joining us. 200 Hour YTT Required Reading Yoga Body & Mind Handbook by Jasmine Tarkeshi Breath by James Nestor The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk Applied Polyvagal Theory in Yoga by Arielle Scwartz The Yoga Sutras of Pantanjli by Sri Swami Satchidananda The Bhagavid Gita by Jack Hawley The Art ad Business of Teaching Yoga by Amy Ippoliti & Taro Smith, PHD Functional Anatomy of Yoga: A Guide for Practioners and Teachers by David Keil
