Through the rich traditions of yoga, direct experience practices, contemplative inquiry, and philosophical study, Awake Heart invites you into aligned service and a homecoming to your true nature. This advanced training offers an immersive journey emphasizing mentorship, community and personal transformation.

By way of a nondual view, your cohort will explore yoga history, mythology and deity yoga,  trauma-informed teaching, Ayurveda, sequencing for various asana types, chakras and subtle body, mantra, mudra, pranayama and more. We delve into essential areas beyond the scope of many YTTs: leadership and relational skills, the art of holding space, safe and mindful hands-on assisting and meditation teacher training. Together, we uncover how yoga can be a path of both radical inner freedom and meaningful social change.

What makes Awake Heart unique is its personalized approach. Rather than a one-size-fits-all training, you receive individualized guidance to help you discover your natural strengths as a leader while identifying where you feel most called to serve. (For example: you won’t be asked to teach difficult asanas as is commonly required to graduate – unless that is your dharma, in which case, we’ll celebrate you!) The goal is to refine the specific skills and expressions of yoga that are authentic to you, so you can teach—or simply live—your practice with greater clarity, confidence, and compassion.

Awake Heart graduates span diverse fields, including counseling, education, bodywork, healthcare, social justice, the arts, coaching, and yoga and meditation teaching. A desire to teach is welcome but not required. Upon completion, you may register as a 500-RYT with Yoga Alliance.
May our practice be for the benefit of all beings.
