500hr Advanced Vinyasa & Therapeutic Yoga Teacher Training
This training is meant for the serious Vinyasa teacher who wants to deepen their knowledge, strengthen their teaching and transform their personal practice.
This is a 300-hour add-on for those who already have a 200-hour training or have completed Tiffany's 200hr training. You will receive your certification upon completion of 270 hours of training in addition to your therapeutic yoga case studies which count for the other 30 hours. Every module has an hour count next to it to show how many hours you can apply toward your 500hr certificate upon completion. You can complete any modules you choose, in any order, at any time so that you can customize your training.
This training focuses on anatomy, creating personalized therapeutic yoga presciptions and deepening your personal practice to deepen your teaching because the best teachers speak from a strong connection to their personal practice. Each module will have an intensive personal practice component as well as some or all of the following: yoga therapeutics, anatomy, philosophy, sequencing, holistic health, advanced postures, meditation and case studies.
Every module is different and so this program is specifically designed without a beginning & ending point. Since there is no end to what we can learn you can also continue on this program toward our Master Teacher 1000 hour certification.
Because this is an advanced training it is meant to be done over the course of a several years so that you can incorporate and use the information as you go, that way you can get the most out of the training.
