What others say ...

"As a teacher, I brought with me classroom experience that the LYP instructors helped me to fine tune and focus for the teaching of yoga. I found encouragement and expert guidance."
~ JWP, Professor, Tulsa OK

"Living Yoga Program offers much more than the mechanics of teaching yoga. It is very much about the business of living abundantly and mindfully. The content is rich, practical, and thorough. The experience at Barsana Dham and interactions with Donna, Ellen, Charles, and Sharyn and others (our instructors) takes us away from our old world for awhile - and then returns us. But we are not the same. We have shared ideas and visions. We are more."
~ B.S. Westlake, TX, homemaker-yoga teacher!

Would you like to teach yoga?

Teaching yoga can help you create a life where your beliefs, thoughts and actions flow from your core values to build a life of integrity and authenticity. The path of yoga is infinitely long and can be embraced as a life journey. Our yoga teacher training program is one step along that path providing a basic and solid foundation that gives our graduates the knowledge, skills, and confidence to begin teaching safely and mindfully.

The Living Yoga Program is taught in a "non-denominational" style of hatha yoga, seeing value in all yogic traditions and styles. It is designed to honor the timeless teachings of yoga and encourage students to explore, trust, and use their own inner resources, and to develop their own wonderfully individualistic teaching style. We are registered with the Yoga Alliance, the Yoga Register, and approved by the Texas Workforce Commission.

In addition to providing a broad-based education about yoga, we focus strongly on the skills required to teach yoga well. The program is oriented to teaching a mindful, gentle, and safe yoga class. However, everything learned is applicable to all styles of hatha yoga, including the more rigorous, athletic forms.

While we have a great deal of sincerity and respect for our program, you will find it to be light-hearted and fun.

Upcoming dates for 2008 are:
* July 25-August 3, 2008 (Foundations Intensive)
* Nov 5-12, 2008 (Track 2 - Deepening Intensive)

Donna Belk, Charles MacInerney, Ellen Smith
