Program Elements
Focus on yoga
Over the course of the year, we drill deep down into many aspects of yoga: poses, breathwork, meditation, anatomy and physiology, yoga philosophy, and the history of yoga.
Focus on growth
We always bring our learning back to how it affects us personally—as well as professionally, for those of us who are yoga teachers—helping us create deep meaning, purpose, and beauty in our lives as we help others to do the same.
Focus on personal development
During the training, each of us develops a personal practice, drawing from aspects of yoga to which we feel allured. We also focus on a personal project. The subject of that project is up to you. Past projects have included creating classes for special populations and designing a program of relaxed self-care.

Deepening Your Personal Practice
Throughout the year, we contemplate three major yogic questions:
What do I truly desire?
Of what value is it to me?
What am I prepared to do about it?
Keeping these questions up in our awareness, continually coming back to them and creating our own
unique responses to them, is central to the Yoga for Transformation Program.
