Adapted Online Vinyasa Flow Yoga Teacher Training

The Trinity Vinyasa Flow Yoga Teacher Training program is designed to immerse you in your yoga practice and maximize your opportunity for growth, education, and support as you embark on the journey to become a Registered Yoga Teacher.

Due to the new social distancing guidelines, our 2020 Vinyasa Flow Yoga Teacher Training programs have been adapted to online delivery.  We have done our utmost to make this as comprehensive, connected, and creative a learning experience as you would have if we were face to face.

Adapted Online Teacher Training includes:

• live video conferencing so we can see and hear each other in real time while we study
• recorded sessions if you miss a workshop, or want to go back and review
• 6 private mentoring sessions
• audio lectures that you can take with you to listen anywhere
• practical assignments that you can work on alone, with friends or family, or with a ‘study buddy’ from the course and/or with a past graduate of the program.
• and, the added bonus of learning to teach yoga online (which looks to be a strong trend for the future!)

As well, you will have the original online study units including anatomy, meditation, philosophy, yoga business, and some reading and writing assignments.

I understand that with these unusual circumstances you may not be able to join us for every live workshop, so every session will be recorded and available for download, and an ongoing discussion will happen in an accessible document so you can ask questions, read others’ questions, and get ongoing support as you study.

I look forward to this being a collaborative process that makes the program accessible, flexible, and successful for all.

Note: Both Yoga Alliance and Yoga Australia have confirmed with us that this change will still allow you to register as a Registered Yoga Teacher upon completion.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Adapted YTT Questions:

1. What do we do with software, internet access etc? We will be using Zoom for our live video workshops. I’ll send you an invite each day of study to join in the workshop, and all sessions will also be recorded and available after our workshop.

2. What will the adapted schedule look like? We will have 12 days of live video workshops, from 2-3 hours each day of study. As well there will some audio, some reading, and some practical exercises that you can do on your own, via video with a study buddy from the course, or we can pair you with a graduate of the program to support you in your practice and practice teaching.

3. Can we get hard copies of materials? Within Australia and Canada, prior to course commencement we will be posting out manuals, DVDs, anatomy charts, and flow charts. These materials are also available for download upon registration

4. What if we have internet/zoom problems? Currently we are working with a variety of options, including live video conferencing, recording sessions and a shared document so we can share questions and answers together.

5. I learn best in an interactive classroom environment, how will this work? I understand completely – we will aim to make this as interactive as possible through video conferencing with Zoom where we can see/hear each other. As well, for your group work we are organizing study buddies with fellow teacher trainees and graduates who are keen to help. This can happen by phone, WhatsApp, Facetime, Skype or whatever platform works best for you

6. How will I get feedback/support on my own practice? You will have a few opportunities, including working with a study buddy or a graduate if accessible, and we can work privately together over video chat to support your practice. We’ll have some extra mentoring sessions just me and you so we can address any concerns you have over poses and do a private session together as well.

7. Can I work at my own pace rather than fit it all into the 12 days? Absolutely. All sessions will be recorded, you’ll have details on all practical exercises etc., so you are most welcome to work at your own pace.
