Senior yoga teachers Carla Webster (Senior Yoga Teacher & E-RYT500), founder of Prana Yoga Studio, and Maureen Thorpe (Senior Yoga Teacher, E-RYT500 & Yoga Therapist) founder of the Yoga Barn are joining forces and are thrilled to present another year of 'Prana-Heart Yoga Training.' This comprehensive programme includes a central in-person course, complemented by online study and personal practice, totalling 300 hours of advanced yoga teacher training.
By integrating the holistic structure of the Panca Kosha model into our 300 hour syllabus, our objective is to empower instructors to enhance their personal practice and teaching abilities across all areas of life- meaning we deliver all of our teachings with a view to understanding the human experience on the levels of the physical, energetic, emotional, mental and spiritual layers of our being. From this powerful foundation you will gain confidence and proficiency, and cultivate a deeper respect for both traditional and contemporary yoga wisdom. This will be an immersive and supportive experience where you will encounter classes, lectures, practical sessions, discussions, readings, case studies, and assessments. Upon completion of the course material and practicums, you will be issued a 300-hour RYT certificate. This certificate can be used towards your senior yoga teacher status, serving as a testament to the newfound knowledge, passion, and insight gained during this academic year of advanced study.
The course offers carefully curated subjects, from the esoteric to the practical, which we deem to be of good service to you and your community of students. To support your preferred specialism you will have the ability to choose one subject to focus your case study on as part of your practicum/ homework requirements.
Prana-Heart 300 hour Yoga Teacher Training is accredited by Yoga Alliance Professionals and is tailored to meet the needs of any current 200hour RYT with a preferred (but not essential) minimum of two years of teaching experience. This comprehensive course is designed as an in-person, 10 module programme over the academic year of September to May, and includes access to a supplemental on-demand library and live online monthly support sessions. Each module will offer an array of subjects, designed to keep you moving and engaged and nourished on your journey.
