We offer the student teachers a variety of many lineages. We consider this approach to add to a well-rounded yoga education so that the student teacher has many examples of eastern knowledge and wisdom. Our staff is certified in a variety of yoga schools including Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Buddhist Tantra, Kundalini, Yin, Yoga Nidra and Shivananda among others. By presenting different lineages of yoga, our hope is that students realize that many paths lead to the same goal, and can then decide what resonates most with them. This will lead to truly embodying the teachings of yoga through a diverse offering of eastern studies.

 

Marisa’s lineage: Nosara Yoga/Self Awakening Yoga. Marisa is a 1000 hr Nosara Yoga Master Educator. She also trained in Ashtanga from Pattabhi Jois and Power Yoga from Baron Baptiste.

Yes, of course. Many of our students enroll in Sage Yoga School Teacher Training Programs unsure of whether or not they will teach. There are countless ways to “teach” yoga. Numerous graduates go on to teach public yoga classes, and others go on to teach one-on-one yoga sessions with individual students. Many students take the training to receive an in-depth exploration of yoga for their own personal lives. All of our graduates go on to transform the world by shining their bright yoga lights in new ways.

We highly encourage 200 Hour student teachers to attend all required modules when offered, however make-up sessions are available when the module is offered again. Many modules are offered twice a year. Please contact Naomi with further questions: naomijones603@gmail.com
