PrerequisitesApplicants must have an established asana practice (at least one year of 2-3 classes a week in alignment-based yoga—any yoga system that emphasizes the alignment of the body in asana, such as Purna Yoga or Iyengar) prior to beginning the program. The strength of this foundation will support the entirety of the Teacher Training program. If your previous asana practice has not included Purna Yoga, you will be asked to attend teh Prep Class offered right before each training. The Prep Class will teach you the Purna Yoga Sequences (Morning Series, Hip Series, Tibetan Rites and Surya Namaskar), as well as the Purna Yoga approach and set up for Sarvangasana and Shirshasana, and the basic Purna Yoga Meditation Snacks. If you do not know these practices, the Prep Class will get you up to speed and ready for the training! 3 hours, $50
