PVYU is a unique style of Vinyasa yoga.  It is designed to lead you to heights of physical and mental achievement that you might never have thought possible. Challenging unexamined yoga orthodoxies with its innovative system of skeletal alignment and incorporating intensive Buddhist-inspired techniques for the cultivation of mental awareness and peace, PranaVayu is unlike any form yoga practiced today.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

This five-day training intensive will introduce you to a variety of transformational tools that can be used to deepen your own existing yoga practice and consciously create a peaceful and happy state of mind.  Perfect for current and aspiring teachers alike, this training will introduce you to many of the basic skills that you’ll need to begin guiding yourself and others toward a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling yoga practice both on and off the mat.

PROGRAM DESIGN

Our program is designed to make the learning process as fun as possible through experiential learning methods.  Since “doing” is the best way to learn any movement-based activity, we’ve designed things in a way that will give you plenty of opportunities to actually teach everything that you’ll be learning.  Over the course of five days, you’ll discover how to lead yoga classes, guide meditation, and create effective yoga sequences through a combination of guided partner work, group discussions, and fun interactive exercises that will engage your whole body and mind. 

Whether you’ve been teaching for years, or you simply wish to try your hand at teaching yoga, this training will give you the perfect opportunity to explore the art and science of vinyasa yoga teaching in a fun and supportive way.

TESTIMONIALS & VIDEO
David is truly professional, incredibly knowledgeable and unbelievably patient.  The course is extremely well structured and everything is explained in a very clear and concise manner. No minute is wasted. --Eva

David's teaching style is second to none. His knowledge and passion for his subject matter is truly inspirational. – Ruth

Going over things visually, audibly and kinesthetically was really helpful.   David covers all learning bases to ensure that he gets his point across. Practicing in small groups helped us grow in confidence whilst we got to know each other so that when the time came to teach to the group, we didn’t feel anxious.  --Jo
