Hatha:  Various styles  LivYoga teacher training will include an embodiment of all the diverse styles of Hatha yoga (including Vinyasa flow, Viniyoga, Kripalu, Anusara, Restorative and more) as an "eclectic mix” of Hatha styles and traditions.

Comment from 2007 participants: 

• "It has been extraordinary. I am so happy to be going in this direction."  -Dawn
• "It's the well rounded liberal arts education of yoga!" -Fay

This training is for anyone who would like to teach the gift of yoga or is just interested in deepening their current practice and knowledge of yoga. This training will be taught by senior LivYoga instructors and some guest instructors who have breadth and depth of experiences in various yogic capacities and  a  tremendous passion for what they do every single day.

We at LivYoga understand that very few students can drop their lives for training so we have designed this teacher training schedule with 'flexibility in mind.'
