​200-hour amrita yoga Teacher Training

What is amrita yoga?
amrita yoga integrates vinyasa yoga, Ayurveda, neuroscience, yoga philosophy, psychology, pranayama, chanting, and mindfulness.  amrita yoga emphasizes the bio-mechanics of alignment, anatomy, kinesiology, and rehabilitative processes.

amrita yoga includes both Chandra and Surya principles. Sequencing is based on the three doshas, vata, pitta, and kapha.

amrita yoga elegantly integrates the yogic view of the koshas (the indwelling layers of our human eco-system), the chakras (energetic centers along the spine), and the vayus (the five pranas stewarding vibrant health in the body and mind).

Pranayama is a key component to amrita yoga. Meditation becomes a natural expression.
