Teacher Training Program

200 Hr. Maya Yoga Level One Teacher Training*, Beginning the Path of Teaching with Vinyasa Yoga

*Fulfills the Yoga Alliance 200hr registry requirements.

Maya Yoga is an open system that is inclusive and inward looking. In this training you will learn principles and techniques from many different yogic traditions. Eddie and Nicki have developed this teacher training curriculum from many years of devoted practice and passionate teaching around the world. From the vast healing they've seen yoga bring, Eddie and Nicki teach yoga from a place of deep respect and reverence. They teach students to dive into yoga as both a refuge and a place of dynamic healing and rejuvenation. The training is intricately designed to develop students into fantastically effective yoga teachers.

The Maya Yoga Teacher Training program is very comprehensive and deeply valuable to students of all levels and backgrounds. Level One is a foundational training in the Vinyasa Yoga tradition. In Vinyasa Yoga, the sequence of postures is built around the Suryanamaskar, or Sun Salutation, which drives the practice and creates lightness in the body and mind. In Maya Yoga Level One, you will be instructed in the following areas:

Alignment principles Anatomy and Physiology Backbends Hip Openers Intelligent Sequencing of Asana Introduction to Teaching Inversions

Pranayama Restorative Yoga Standing Poses Suryanamaskar Verbal and Manual Adjustments Yoga Philosophy Yoga Sutra study
