Teacher Training 200-hour &
300-hour/Holistic Healing Yoga Certification Program
We are all teachers at heart
Yoga Mountain is offering new programs for 200 and 300 hr/Yoga Holistic Healing Certification students that are accessible to everyone!
This new program includes Monthly Modules along with weekly Wednesday Workshops taught by Yoga Mountain graduates. These former students have become experts in the field of yoga and have come back to share their knowledge and experiences with a fresh set of minds. Each weekend you will get new instructors and a new perspective. These instructors will teach under the guidance of Gail Walsh, the creator of Yoga Mountain Inc, who will play an active role in your certification. This ensures the same level of professional expertise that Yoga Mountain has been providing in the Lower Hudson Valley for the past 22 years.
​
This program is designed to be flexible and adapt to any schedule. The weekends will be done as modules, which will be ongoing, with the exception of December. This means if your schedule causes you to miss a weekend, you have ample opportunity to make up those hours. By offering weekly Wednesday Workshops, we provide the ability to accumulate more hours for those who wish to finish the program at an accelerated pace. You can complete in seven months OR you can go at your own pace!
Our 300 hr students will also be participating in our Holistic Healing Yoga Certification program. Which will be embedded within their training. The curriculum is presented through lecture, discussion, observation, and hands-on practice. The skills that will be developed are intake, client-teacher relations, process plan creation, implementation, adaptation, documentation, evaluation of effectiveness of process, and follow-up. During your training in Holistic Healing Yoga you will participate in 3 case studies, with the expert guidance of Gail. During these studies you will guide an individual through an exploration of their own personnel yoga practice. Every month you will also attend a 3-hour meeting with Gail and the other participants in the Holistic Healing Yoga Certification program. During this time you can share your experiences and solve problems together with fellow Yogis.
