"I have
taken yoga at various times in my life but it was
not until Rainey's class that I found it to be hugely
beneficial. The specific benefits that she brings
are her humor and compassion, her ability to devote
attention to every member of the class, and her obvious
love for life and the beauty of yoga. Her approach
is so lovely and supportive that I find myself able
to practice without anxiety about my physical limitations
or fear of injury.
It would not be an exaggeration
to say that her class has completely changed my life.
I am able to connect with others in a more compassionate,
open-minded way. The stress that is an inherent part
of my job is now completely manageable. On the physical
side, I am stronger and more flexible than I have
ever been and my famously bad posture is much improved.
Poses such as handstand that once seemed completely
out of reach are available and wonderfully empowering."

The Universe is breathing us alive with
every breath. We in turn dance the universe awake
with every gesture. The pulse of our Breath and our
bodies is a mundane and ordinary experience. And yet
it can be an intimate dance of recognition and devotion
when we bring our heart, mind, and body into Harmony.
It is this devotion that lights up our souls, inspires
the world & is the center of the practice of Anusara
Yoga.

The joy of teaching yoga lies in sharing
our passion with others and empowering them on their
path
of self discovery. The challenge is how to skillfully
and accurately convey all that lies in your mind
and heart. This program is designed to help you clarify
your message, hone your skills and deepen
your capacity as a teacher and human being. It is
an intentionally small group to give us ample time
to explore each topic and practice our skills as well
as developing an intimate community of support.

to share these gifts. In this training, you will learn
highly effective methods to convey to others the depth
of yoga. You will learn the elegance of the Anusara
Principles of Alignment, which are unequaled as tools
to both align the physical body and charge the practice

and practice finding your own voice and inspiration
via peer teaching and skillful commentary on the teaching
of others.
