200 Hour In-Depth Yoga Study & Teacher Training

Breathing Room Center’s 200-Hour In-Depth Yoga Study & Teacher Training is designed for anyone who wants to deepen their own personal practice or to become an inspirational teacher. The training will weave a comprehensive study of Hatha Yoga including a foundation of the physical practice of asanas with clear intelligent alignment principles, while creating a heartfelt connection with self and others. You do not need to become a yoga teacher for this in-depth study. All you need is a desire to learn and inspire and the intention to invest mind, body and spirit in your own life journey.  Come connect to your “inner” teacher!

Teachers will be with you for about 180 hours of classroom time divided over the course of 10 lessons in 10 months. The lessons are organized in a manual that will become a resource for you for years – with objectives and goals for the lesson, practice evaluations, pictures of postures, easy-to-read and understand explanations of everything from the History of Yoga to the meaning behind the language of Yoga.  Learn life tools to take with you off the mat and share with others!

The sessions meet once a month at BRC. For a full calendar and times, please use the contact us. We are accepting applications for the next session, which will begin March 2012. It is strongly encouraged that you reserve a space in one of our upcoming Open House dates.

Paula brings her integrated approach into the classroom – weaving a comprehensive flow of philosophy, meditation, methodologies and the ‘art of being’ to make the course material – very palatable and easy to understand.

“I am so humbled to be in the YTT class with such a wonderful teacher. I feel very blessed to have both you and Cheryl in my life.  You have made a difference to me, and to all the people in my ‘circle.’  I know that is happening with all 13 of the students in the class…I feel blessed. YTT is really opening up a new world to me.” (MH)

“This has been one of the greatest experiences in my life. It has turned me inside out and although that may sound daunting, it is what has been needed in order for the catharsis that has been necessary in my life to unfold. It is changing me little by little, day by day, towards my greater good and authentic self. It has connected me with myself and my life is richer because I chose to take the course. My YTT Family ~ Paula, Cheryl and each and every one of my classmates have become part of me and my life is richer because of them and what this course has instilled in me….I have great respect for the practice of yoga…the breath, the alignment, the assists and modifications, the body and how it works, the mind and how it works, the soul and how it works ~ all so rudimentary and vital to a healthy yoga practice….If you know you love yoga and all the benefits it offers; if you’re at a cross-roads in your life; if you need to understand yourself better; if you know there’s something ‘more,’ but just haven’t been able to figure out what it is or how to get there; if you long for alignment, balance, joy, breath and deep understanding and peace in your life ~ do this.  You’ll not regret it. Even if you don’t end up teaching. The knowledge you will gain will serve you ten-fold in aspects of your life you would have never imagined!” (MV)

“I know that you mentioned that we would be transformed over the course of this 10+ months- and at first I was a bit skeptical of this. But through your teachings and this practice, I feel like I really have been transformed. Practicing the 8 limbs of yoga on a daily basis in a practical way- really bringing the yoga off of the mat- has made my life so beautiful. I feel truly content- despite all of the difficult things that we experience in our day-to-day lives. My chitta vritti’s are really quite peaceful these days!” (JB)
