Capacity: Limited to 20 participants per module to support an intimate learning environment 

This training welcomes dedicated practitioners who are drawn toward deeper inquiry, anatomical understanding, and embodied learning. While teaching applications are present, the material is also explored through self-practice, peer learning, and reflection. Many participants find this training brings clarity and maturity to their relationship with practice—whether or not they choose to teach.
 
This program works well for continuing education and advanced credentialing. The modules emphasize applied learning, integration, and long-term teaching intelligence—supporting teachers who are expanding their depth, scope, and sense of responsibility in their work.

Overview: 
 
Module One establishes the foundation for how participants orient attention, perception, and presence within practice and learning environments. Rather than revisiting how to structure a class or memorize cues, this module focuses on the internal conditions that support steady, informed participation in practice—such as awareness, breath, and responsiveness.
For participants who are not currently teaching, this module offers a deeper way of inhabiting practice. Attention is placed on breath, sensation, and subtle experience as guides for self-observation and refinement, supporting greater clarity, steadiness, and ease on the mat.

For participants who are teaching or preparing to teach, this module assumes familiarity with basic instructional skills. Rather than focusing on what to teach, the work here introduces how orientation and awareness influence choice. Participants begin to recognize how presence, timing, and attention shape responses—without yet moving into assessment, intervention, or technique.

Learning Objectives: 

 By the end of Module One, participants will be able to:

- Cultivate sustained attention and presence within personal practice and shared learning spaces

- Experience the subtle body: The subtle body refers to the lived internal field of experience; breath, sensation, tone, attention, and perception—that shapes how practice is inhabited from the inside. It describes how experience is felt, not a symbolic or mystical structure.
- Explore the koshas: The koshas are traditionally described as layers of the body that move inward toward the soul. Kosha translates as sheath, referring to the layers of ourselves that range from the more gross, physical body to the most subtle aspects of energetic and perceptual experience — the koshas are used as a framework for discernment, helping practitioners recognize which aspect of experience is being engaged—physical effort, breath rhythm, emotional tone, mental focus, or perceptual clarity. Rather than describing experience itself, the koshas support clarity by naming where attention is operating within practice.
- Recognize breath as a primary organizing force for awareness, rhythm, and internal coherence
- Understand breath anatomy through fascial relationships
Observe how breath quality reflects internal orientation and attentional state
- Unpack the bandhas: In yoga and meditation, bandhas describe how awareness, breath, and tone organize around a stable center. Rather than being applied or engaged, they reflect the conditions that support clarity, continuity, and ease whether in stillness or movement.
- Develop sensitivity to how one’s internal state of presence, and the timing of attention or action, influence how responses arise within personal practice and teaching spaces.
- Establish perceptual foundations that will support later work in anatomy, assessment, and application
