This program was designed in 2006 as a bridge to the full 500-hour Program of Yoga Teacher Certification. The foundation of this course is the further study of Anatomy and Philosophy required for the 500-hour Program as well as the practice of Ashtanga Yoga. This practice is designed to help instructors to deepen their practice of the asanas, teaching them how to support others through that process by offering assists and modifications, while building on core strength and character to support them in their Yoga instruction.
