Applied Yoga Anatomy For Unique Bodies
Most yoga teachers still use outdated one-size-fits-all style cues that don't actually work for the majority of students.
At Movement Wisdom you'll learn anatomy and biomechanics based on modern science so that you can tailor your yoga practice to your unique body; and teach in a way that's both accessible and challenging for all students.
Yogic Life Coaching For The 21st Century
Most YTT leaders care more about asana, alignment, and anatomy more than about yoga philosophy — so that's what they focus on in their trainings.
But yoga is philosophy in action, embodied wisdom, movement with meaning. It's the combination of the physical and the spiritual that makes yoga unique.
That's why at Movement Wisdom Yoga we put equal emphasis on both the physical and the spiritual. We teach authentic yoga philosophy and make ancient yogic wisdom relevant for life in the modern world.
The full spectrum of yoga in just a 200 hours
99% of YTT leaders teach one style of yoga. Students who want more need to take several trainings.
At Movement Wisdom you'll learn to practice and teach 4 different styles — giving you the versatility to teach any class, serve any student, and stand out in any job application.
On top of that, you'll also learn more than 20 breathwork and meditation practices.
Legit teaching skills for aspiring yoga professionals
Most yoga teacher trainings include between 5 minutes and 1 hour of teaching practice. Sounds weird — but it's true.
Ours includes 10 hours of live teaching practice in small groups with expert mentor feedback, plus the most comprehensive teaching methodology program we've ever seen in a YTT.
The result: graduates who can sequence memorable classes, give clear cues, and create transformative experiences for their students.
