We work with all our students to find a harmonious life-work-teacher training balance.

Self-Paced Yoga School
If you want to learn all about yoga, but don't want to teach, this is the program for you.
Self-Paced Yoga School is completely DIY.
Similar to teacher training, but none of the pressure and no one checking your homework.
The curriculum is easy to follow
Each quarter, focuses on specific thematic units like; a mantra, a pranayama & an asana group, so you can take your time fully absorbing them.
We provide lifetime access to our online training.
Our flipped learning model allows you to get the lectures, reading materials and videos in advance, so our hands-on time is productive and enjoyable.
The beginning of the program includes the heaviest and most challenging of the materials, so that you have time to implement and integrate the lessons and the last quarter is lighter and a lot of fun.
It is important to us to honor the tradition of yoga while also tailoring practices to fit our modern-day lives.
We focus on inner engineering through the application of hatha-style asana, meditation techniques & Sanskrit, along with Ayurveda, aromatherapy, chakra balancing, conscious communication, mantra & more.
What to expect in the curriculum:
1.Techniques, Training and Practice
To honor the ancient technology of yoga, we use the 8 limbed path as our guide and the Yoga Sutras as our textbook.
Each quarter into a specific focus on a self care practice (niyama), a mantra (affirmation/prayer), and a pranayama (breath) so that you fully absorb each teaching.
The asanas (poses) are divided into groups: standing and balancing, sun salutes, seated poses, twists, inversions and arm balances with an emphasis on functional fitness for mobility. We provide sequences & practice for many different types of yoga including: Chair, pre-natal, Yin, Gentle and Restorative
2. For the Yoga Teacher
Through the business of yoga module and 1:1 mentoring, we provide all our students everything they need to be confident yoga teachers.
We encourage our students to explore different styles of yoga in order to identify their own signature teaching style. And we offer mentoring with master teachers so all our students feel empowered to craft and design a class with safe sequencing and with their own creativity.
3. Anatomy, Physiology and Kinesiology:
Safety is our #1 priority, so we focus on educating our students with anatomy and applied kinesiology that will help them construct sequences for healthy and functional movement patterns. In addition to learning about the physical systems of skeletal, muscular, respiratory & fascia, we also provide extensive education about the chakra energetic system. And we provide in depth education about injuries and modifications.
4. Yoga Lifestyle, Philosophy and Ethics:
Yoga is so much more than just poses, so we provide discussions and workshops on Ayurveda (the science of yoga), self care practices, intuition development, aromatherapy, the Yoga Sutras and conscious communication.
"I would recommend teacher training to everyone. It is the most fun I have ever had in any type of schooling or working. Even if you are not going to teach yoga, just to know for yourself, I highly recommend it. Yoga teacher training gave me a lot of tools to be all around healthier; physically, mentally, emotionally. It was a very accepting environment, so it was really conducive to learning.
I love how accepting & loving Stella is to every person. She can talk to anyone and make them feel comfortable and special. When you start doing yoga, you feel a little silly but, no matter what Stella will make you feel like a rockstar!
I love how knowledgeable Jessi is. And how confident she is in her knowledge, she brings a lot to the table."

I was hesitant at first, due to medical reasons, but even one arm down you are in good hands with Jessi and Stella. They reminded me there are always modifications and who knows what excuse I could make up a year from now of why I still can't do it. Jessi and Stella are easy to communicate with, they will challenge you, and guide you each step of the way.
