@ a local hot yoga studio. Hot yoga studio? Yes, there will be a logical flow to this one – unlike the pure restorative class I used to teach in the past, I will compensate for the lack of props by other means:) The heat and a bit more movements that flows through for a detox effect. At least, that’s the plan:)
Today I attended a teacher training titled “Integrating Cancer Survivors into All Yoga Classes” with Lorien Neargarder, E-RYT 500, C-IAYT.
E-RYT means “Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher” meaning you have an experience of at the very least 2 years teaching;
“500” stands for the number of hours of your yoga teacher training you have undergone. Most common basic is 200 hours.
“C-IAYT” – means Certified International Association of Yoga Therapists.
As of today, there are only 27 accredited yoga therapy programs in the world (Canada, India, New Zealand, Brazil and USA) to certify yoga teachers as yoga “therapists” according to the standards set by IAYT. I feel so blessed to be on this journey.
