You Do Yoga will be offering a 300 hour advanced teacher training program beginning in the later half of 2013! This program is designed for those who have already completed any other 200 hour RYT program, and will lead to a 500-Hour RYT certification.  Enrollment is by acceptance only, and anyone interested is encouraged to contact the director of teacher training to discuss the opportunity. We have posted dates for our next round of Taoist Yoga 200 hour teacher training beginning in January of 2014. We only accept a limited number of participants each year, so if you are serious about this do not hesitate! Please contact the Director of Teacher Training to discuss enrollment. For more information go to http://www.youdoyoga.com/Teacher_Training.html

While you may be aware that our Taoist Yoga Teacher Training is different from most others, we are equally aware that many people are not able to commit to an entire program. That is why we are continuing to offer pieces of our teacher training curriculum in a weekend workshop format. The next CEU offering will overlap with the opening session of our advanced teacher training. Designed for yoga Instructors and serious students, our 51-hour Advanced Functional Anatomy Intensive will be offered July 22-27. The major focus will be comparative skeletal anatomy, emphasizing the important role of individual differences in asana practice. Going beyond the standard "everyone is different" cliche, we will become comfortable with techniques that allow us to assess an individual's capacity for movement, and learn to adapt our instruction to suit each person's unique ability. Enrollment is by acceptance only, group size will be limited, and anyone interested is encouraged to contact the director of teacher training. http://www.youdoyoga.com/Teacher_Training.html
