Teaching Inclusive Yoga 2: Making Asana Accessible
Sunday 15 & 29 January 2023 10am-6pm

Overview

Join a revolution of yoga teachers who are socially-aware, accessible and inclusive.

Training to be a yoga teacher is a transformative journey, and sharing the benefits of yoga with others is often an experience that defies words. However, often contemporary yoga practices, cultures, and communities are exclusive and inaccessible to a wide variety of people, for a wide variety of reasons.

All too often, students may feel like they don’t belong in a yoga space.

This training is designed to address this, by guiding yoga teachers towards the skills and framework necessary to dismantle the dynamics of yoga culture that prevent people from feeling included and welcome.

In Teaching Inclusive Yoga 2: Making Asana Accessible, we’ll explore a variety of strategies, techniques and possibilities for enabling asana practice to be a joyful, inclusive experience.
