The number of yoga practitioners is on the rise!

Scientific research is showing that the health benefits of yoga and meditation practices are tremendous. More and more health care practitioners are recommending yoga to their patients. In the past decade the number of yoga practitioners has skyrocketed. With this popularization of yoga, the senior age demographic has tripled in the yoga room and real people of all ages, shapes, sizes and experience levels are showing up in classes.

There is a huge need for yoga teachers truly qualified to teach such diversity

Yoga classrooms are now flooded with diversity in fitness levels, body types, belief systems, and life experience. Our one size fits all sequences benefit some but not others. Many arrive in public classes with injuries, chronic health conditions and mobility challenges. There is a huge gap in the demand for yoga teachers that are truly qualified to teach adaptive, safe, and bio-mechanically sound practices.
