Emphasizing interconnectedness and a nondualistic view of life, this practice awakens within us a need to protect the planet and all life on earth. Gain the skills to confidently achieve those goals for yourself, as well as the ability to teach others how to live in harmony.

Liberation: On and Off the Mat
The Jivamukti Yoga Teacher Training focuses not only on the physical postures, but also on how the postures evolved. We explore yoga’s ancient sacred texts and five-thousand-year-old traditions, as well as the psychotherapeutic benefits that develop with a steady practice, and the spiritual power that is set free when energy flows throughout the heart, body, and mind. Throughout the program, senior Jivamukti teachers will guide you and help you to understand the principles that underlie the ancient practices of yoga and how to integrate them into the world today.

History
Sharon Gannon and David Life met in New York City in the early 1980s, then travelled to India together for their first yoga teacher training. Eventually they met their 3 gurus, who passed them precious wisdom and empowered them to teach it. They were not expecting to found a movement, but as they gained more wisdom and synthesized it into their innovative method of teaching, their following expanded around the globe. Over the past 4 decades, the Jivamukti Method, including the Teacher Training curriculum was refined into what remains today- a teacher training course regarded around the world as a pinnacle of yoga education.
