Colynn Vosburgh Advanced 300 YTT

This transformational Yoga Alliance (YA) accredited 300-hour Yoga Teacher Training Course is designed to advance your yoga education by building upon the foundation of your current 200-Hour Certification. Upon successful completion of the training program, with your YA approved 200-hour certification, you will be eligible to apply for your 500 RYT.

The Foundational Pillars of This Training Include:

1. Experience – to be in integrity as a teacher it is important that you practice what you preach. Therefore, to teach, it must come from experience. Allow yourself the space to let go of the teacher role and fully immerse yourself in the practices and the healing that takes place in surrender.

2. Exploration – to be a successful and skillful teacher, one must be authentic and knowledgeable. Exploration coupled with personal feedback supports each teacher in finding clarity in their life, their offerings and their business. 

3. Integration – In teacher training we are able to retreat from the ordinary and assess, reassess and/or create a plan of action. Imperative to a successful landing back in your everyday world post yoga teacher training immersion, is integration. More than just learning and experiencing the practices, together we will create a tool belt to support your integration back into your current teaching, your personal yoga practices and how to also share these tools with clients and students.

4. Clearing – all of the coaching, practices and teachings in the training are chosen and arranged in a specific order to support and launch you into the next chapter of your yoga inquiry and career.

This training is unique because not only does it follow a specific curriculum, it has the space to tailor the training to suit your wants and needs in your personal practice, your teaching practice and your business. You will receive individual feedback on your current teaching style and we will discuss how to make your presence, classes and offerings more aligned and authentic.

Practicum hours allow space for us to co-create the direction of your focus in the training. You will be teaching classes, meditations and presenting a final project based on what you want to incorporate into your teaching (or personal practice). Eg. If you want to focus on Yin & Chakras, your classes will incorporate your focus into them and the presentation could be the outline of a retreat you want to run or if you want to coach people through the chakras.
