This Training includes Anusara Immersions I, II, III (100+hrs) and Anusara Teacher Trainings I, II, III (100+hrs)

Immersions I, II & III: The Anusara Yoga Immersion program is a 100 hour training designed for the enthusiastic student who wishes to delve into the practice of Anusara Yoga and learn more in-depth information about the full spectrum of life-changing possibilities that Anusara Yoga has to offer.  It is also the first step towards Anusara Yoga certification.  In this comprehensive training, students will study every aspect of Anusara Yoga in detail. This includes all asanas from the Level 1 and 2 syllabi, yoga philosophy, all components of the biomechanics and the opportunity to be with great, like-minded company.  Once you have successfully finished all three parts of the 100 hour Immersion, you will receive a signed certificate of completion.

Teacher Trainings I, II & III:  The Anusara Yoga Teacher Training program is a 100 hour training designed for those who wish to teach Anusara yoga, those who are already yoga teachers who want to learn more about Anusara, and anyone else who is simply inspired to continue learning after completing the 100hr Immersion program. This training explores the essential Anusara teaching methodologies.  Every aspect of teaching Anusara Yoga is practiced in a safe and supportive environment to help each teacher trainee flourish and soar to new heights in their teaching.

Prerequisite: Completion of a 100-hour Anusara Immersion program. Completing both the Immersion and Teacher Training programs will fulfill the requirements for the 200-hour Certification with Yoga Alliance. The hours you accrue are credited toward Anusara Yoga certification.  Once you complete all of your work and demonstrate that you have integrated the Anusara teachings you will be certified as a Hatha Yoga Teacher.

Prerequisites:
* At least 2 years of hatha yoga (physical practice)
* Completion of a phone/in-person interview with Sarah.
