Lower World - Deepen your personal practice and teaching of yoga throughout this cycle with advanced asana analysis and adjustment techniques. We will explore the art of teaching methodology in detail and creative sequencing.
Incorporating approaches to yoga teaching for special populations such as Pre-Natal and older populations, and we will learn how to diagnose and treat dis-ease in the body through therapeutic applications to yoga asana. Together we co-create holistic classes from a variety of lineages, artistically weaved together with themes and intentions, encouraging advanced levels of awareness throughout the program. |
Middle World - Focus on the expansion of our own sacred consciousness in the context of Shamanic Healing, Holistic Cleansing and Ancient Wisdom. By releasing the stories and holdings that no longer serve us, we create more space to see our gifts, and the essence of who we are as teachers and beings on this path of Light and Oneness.
Connecting to the essence of the true teacher within, we are able to integrate the wisdom of our own yoga with the deep wisdom of Native American earth medicine, shamanic practices, subtle energy systems and other healing practices of the world. |
Exploring Ancient Wisdom traditions and deepening our understanding of the timeline of Yoga as we study the philosophy of the Bhagavad Gita and the Upanishads, and various Tantras, providing us the tools and understandings for us as teachers to weave together authentically inspired intentions and themes into our practice and into our classes.
Upper World - Uncover your heart’s true voice through ancient and modern practices of Bhakti (the Yoga of devotion) with ceremonies of sacred song, Kirtan, Bhajan and Mantra practice.
Learn to introduce musical themes to classes and invigorate your own understanding with the science and philosophy of Nada Yoga —the Yoga of inner and outer Sound. Through the art of deep listening we come to awaken a profound presence. Refresh your understanding of consciousness and meditation in the lessons of Nidra—the Yoga of sleep and deep relaxation as we equip our tool-bags with another therapeutic and healing gem. |
In this cycle we will encourage you to find your unique creative expression using sound, mantra and mystical poetry, the power of our word and creative process as you enhance your teaching and offerings with the wisdom and freedom of expression and emotional integrity to better serve yourself and your community.

About The Yoga Forest
The Yoga Forest was founded as a sustainable living experiment, through a desire for living simply, greenly and in communion with everything surrounding us.
In yoga practice, we clear the body and mind making space for wisdom and deeper understanding to flow freely and openly. In making space, we allow ourselves to experience our fullness and connection to everything around us. Yoga is therefore about cultivating flow through the body and mind and opening up to optimal experience - union.
Permaculture follows the same principles. In Permaculture, we are essentially making space for the wisdom of the entire system to fully flow, to become a more open and thriving container for life. Permaculture teaches us to observe the natural environment and work with rather than against the natural order of flow. Thus, in Permaculture we are also cultivating union. Through the Yoga of Permaculture, we are facilitating the experience of Yoga as deep ecology – by allowing the ecosystem, and ourselves within that system, to demonstrate their own evolution.
