Downward Dog Teacher Training is Coming to Sun Yoga!
Sun Yoga is proud to be joining forces this coming winter with Downward Dog Yoga Centre, one of Canada’s most preeminent yoga studios. Take advantage of the opportunity to study with Ron Reid, Diane Bruni, Marla Joy and David Bruni away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. This 200-hour Basic Certification program runs from January through March 2011, with classes taking place Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
The Course
Basic Certification, comprised of two 100-hour Modules, provides the foundation for teaching yoga. Ron Reid, Diane Bruni, Marla Joy, and David Bruni will introduce the principles of leading beginner-level classes. Course topics range from asana exploration, to yoga philosophy, physiology and bio-mechanics. In order to complete the 200-hour certification, students will be required to participate in and observe classes at Downward Dog’s downtown and/or beach locations. Participants have the option of completing both Modules I and II at Sun Yoga back-to-back, or may enroll only in Module I and complete the second Module at another time, either at Downward Dog Downtown or at our annual intensive in Puerto Escondido, Mexico.
