Yoga Teacher Training: Continuing Education Opportunities

Choosing a career as a yoga teacher can be lonely. We lack in ‘water cooler’ time, the debrief, the peer connect, that so many other professions take for granted. We can work in a fair bit of isolation with only our clients for feedback. This is where continuing education is so key. Yes, hone your skills, beef up your knowledge and widen your expertise AND, build community, and find allies and peers! Take time for you to remember you.

When you chose this career, you chose you. Remember that. Yoga is a transformative practice and more so when you step into the role of teacher. But it is easy to get lost in the swirl of income generation and branding. It is easy to lose the heart of why you started. Get the heart back. Come home to you through soul-nourishing continuing education opportunities with Allie.

Yoga Massage: A Workshop With Allie Chisholm-Smith & Andrea Johnston

Saturday, Oct. 21st, 12 pm to 6:30 pm
Sunday, Oct. 22nd, 9 am to 5:30 pm
This workshop is designed for certified Yoga Instructors, RMT's & other bodyworkers.

Yoga Massage combines the traditional method of palpation with deep stretching to affect fascial restrictions and patterns of holding. This powerful modality allows both therapist and client to experience the benefits of yoga postures while being assisted and held to release. We will explore traditional Thai massage and an adaptive approach to work on a massage table.

By the end of the weekend you will have:

  • The ability to conduct a one-hour massage session

  • A certificate of completion with the caveat that hours of practice are needed

  • An ability to perform a massage both on a table and on the floor

  • A series of movements and palpations to address multiple needs for your clients

The information shared in this workshop is a culmination of our experience and training as both yoga instructors and massage practitioners.

Together, Allie and Andrea have created a series of movements and palpation techniques that have helped our clients to both feel better and embrace yoga as a means of creating less pain and greater freedom in their lives.
