Making friends with stress - a 300 hour module

 All of our teacher trainings are structured to be beneficial and  enjoyable for those who wish not to teach. We believe yoga is a path of  lifelong learning. Teacher training is a term that we use because we are  Yoga Alliance and Washington State Certified Teaching Vocational School  and that is the language that they determined for these classes. But  that does not mean that these trainings are restricted for teachers  only. We welcome everyone who is curious, who enjoys learning, who  wishes to understand yoga in a deeper level.\

You can buy the 300 HR teacher training two ways. Either purchase it  module per module or buy all 15 modules and save $400.00. 

To receive your 300-Hr diploma from Spira you must  complete 15 modules and pass the final exam and presentation. The  training can be completed in as little as 2 years. Most students can  comfortably complete the training in 4 years. However, our program is  flexible: You can study at your own pace, taking as many years as you  need to finish all 15 modules. After each 4-year period, we will charge  an additional $100 to reactivate your enrollment in the training

This module is designed for teachers who have already completed a  200-Hr yoga teacher training, and wish to accumulate 300 credits toward  their 500-Hr certification. Or for the curious practitioner who simply  wishes to deepen his or her knowledge of yoga.

You will learn to understand where modern theories on consciousness  and brain function meet every-day practicality and traditional yogic  philosophy.

• Modern-day applications of mindfulness and meditation
• What “meditation” is, and the myths and misconceptions about meditation
• Different kinds of meditation practices
• A doctor’s perspective on stress and its effects on mind & body (Ph.D. presentation)
• Neuroplasticity, meditation, and the brain

• The mind-body connection and creating well-being
• How to shift the stress response
• Experiences in meditation
• The spiritual side of meditation: mystic and wisdom traditions, awakened states of awareness, and self-discovery
