This is a Sadhana and an Education/Teacher Training for Yoga teachers and experienced students that want an in-depth exploration, education and personal growth in the traditions of Hatha Yoga. Hatha Yoga is the general term applied to any practices of Yoga that involve Asanas, Pranayama (breathwork), Meditation, Kriyas (inner cleansing), Mudras, Devotion and the underlying Philosophies for approaching an inner and
outer life.
The Svarūpa Advanced Yoga Teacher Training (AYT) gives students a Continuing Education Program in practices of the Modern and Ancient Hatha Tradition.
Asana is presented in dynamic form but with a deeper understanding of alignment, modifications and adjustments. One can expect to see growth in all the practices of Yoga but also to learn the deeper subtle aspects of the practice. How to make it more complex and advanced is only one aspect. Allowing the work to be simple but to move into deeper layers of the conscious is another.
Therapeutic Asana, Pranayama, Breathwork, Yoga Nidra/Prana Vidya and Meditation support this Training.
The content of the course, final assessment and certification gives students a chance to take a deep
