Introduction

The 50hr Yoga + Breathwork Intensive is an advanced teacher training course designed for:

  • Committed students who want to go deeper in their practice 
  • New teachers who want to expand their knowledge after a 200hr YTT
  • Experienced teachers who want to refine their teaching skills

During this course we will focus on the science of how the body works during both movement and breathing. Understanding the "how" helps us to move better, breathe better, and ultimately teach better.

The course is divided into 2 modules:

1. Movement Physiology and Biomechanics

2. Breathing Physiology and Techniques

Movement Physiology and Biomechanics will help you develop kinaesthetic awareness and improve your self practice. Those of you who are teachers will be able to use this knowledge to develop better teaching cues and improve the way you sequence your classes.

By the end of Breathing Physiology and Techniques, you will know which breathwork techniques to use and when, and you will be able to create your own breathwork sequences, either for yourself or to teach others.

Each day we will have a mixture of pranayama and dynamic yoga asana classes combined with lectures and workshops.

This course is accredited by Yoga Alliance and you will receive a 50hr YACEP certificate upon completion.

What will you learn?

This course is designed to teach you how yoga (asana) + pranayama (breathwork) affect the physical body, mental and emotional levels, and energy flow. During the course, we will bridge Eastern philosophy and Western science to deepen the understanding of these two perspectives. The ultimate goal of this course is to understand what's happening in your body while practicing asana + pranayama so that you can maximize the benefits for your own practice, and in the service of others.

We'll study through 2 modules: Movement Physiology and Biomechanics + Breathing Physiology and Techniques.

  • Daily practice of Myofascial Integrated Alignment (MIA) Yoga
  • The Physiology of Muscles
  • Everything you need to know about Fascia

  • What are Myofascial Meridians?
  • Study the different types of stretching
  • Understand what happens when you stretch
  • How to stretch properly for your goals
  • Learn the different types of flexibility
  • How to develop the different types of flexibility

Module 2: Breathing Physiology and Techniques

  • Daily breathwork (pranayama) practice
  • Anatomy and physiology of breathing 
  • Impacts of Breath on the Nervous System
  • What happens in your body when you breathe?
  • Overview of Polyvagal Theory
  • Eastern Modalities: Nadis, Gunas, Vayus, Bandhas
  • Breathwork/Pranayama Techniques
  • How to create your own Breathwork Sequences

*Along with the course manual, students will receive a booklet with ready made breathwork sequences, as well as a booklet outlining the myofascial meridians.*

How will you learn?

There are 3 classes every day. The morning session will be “MIA Yoga” (Myofascial Integrated Alignment) encompassing Asana, Pranayama, and Meditation. The second session will consist of informative lectures. In the afternoon, interactive workshops will guide participants in visualizing the Myofascial Meridians, feeling them in their own bodies, and assisting the Meridians in order to achieve better myofascial balance.
