SUMMARY:300 Hour Core Module: Advanced Asana Practice (Summer 2026)
DESCRIPTION:32 HOURS IN-PERSON with Martin Scott \nAll great yoga teaching blossoms out of the lived and embodied experience of the teacher’s own practice of yoga. In this training\, you will have the opportunity to deepen your own personal practice. You’ll learn more complex poses by deconstructing them into foundational asana and then rebuilding them. Through this method\, you will learn to feel steady\, confident and safe when practicing new\, more challenging poses. \nWe’ll also investigate what an “Advanced Practice” looks and feels like\, placing significant emphasis on self-inquiry and attention to detail\, rather than simply focusing on taking complicated shapes. You’ll learn personal modifications and self-adjustments that are appropriate for your physical and emotional state\, and a more sophisticated use of yoga props. All of these tools will translate into making you a stronger\, more aware teacher. \nThis training is in-person and consists of three weeks of morning practice on Mondays\, Tuesdays\, Thursdays and Fridays.  \nRequired Reading: \nAnatomy of Hatha Yoga by H. David Coulter \nRead before first day: \nForeword\, Preface\, Introduction\, Basic Premises\, Chapter 1 & Chapter 2 \nThe Key Poses of Yoga by Dr. Ray Long \nRead before first day: \nIntroduction\, Part One: Theory \nSchedule: \nAugust 17th – September 4th\, 2026 \nMondays\, Tuesdays\, Thursdays\, Fridays \n7am-9am \nall sessions held in person at Folk NOPA \nPrice: \n$950 for this 30 hour module\, or $850 if enrolled by July 27th\, 2024 with discount code ASANA26.  Gain unlimited access to all Folk trainings\, workshops\, and classes with our Yoga School All Access Membership! To learn more\, schedule a call with our Admissions Manager. \nDrop-in participants are required to hold a 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training certificate. \n300 Hour Program: \nCompletion of this module will apply to the 300 hours required by Yoga Alliance for your 300-hour Advanced certification. Core modules can be taken in any order. Students may re-take any of the Core Modules for full credit at a slightly reduced rate. \nFor more about our 300 Hour Advanced Yoga Teacher Training: click here.
