The 300 Hour is a one-year incubation lab that hones your craft of teaching with personal feedback, experimentation, and individualized guidance from some of America's finest teachers. This program will stretch you in every possible direction, provoking you to articulate your “raison d'être” for teaching and supporting and guiding you until you execute your own vision with mastery.
What you will learn:
This yoga teacher training is advanced not because you dive deeper into asana, but because you go deeper into your path as a teacher. You’ll develop advanced understanding of teaching techniques beyond guiding asana and into creating an experience for your students that leads to both subtle and life-changing transformations.
-
Fully embrace the principles of advanced asana through the biomechanics of alignment, physiology of movement, applied anatomy, postural analysis, and empowered adjustments.
-
Awaken a new level of transformation to your practice and teaching with advanced study of pranayama and breathing mechanics as it relates to the subtle body.
-
Great teaching comes from experience. Witness the evolution of your teaching as you cultivate your voice, dive into self-study, incorporate somatics, and explore your own teaching style.
-
Examine the history of yoga, explore the Ashtanga, Iyengar, and Vinyasa lineages, and bridge the gap between the timeless wisdom of the ancients and modern day yoga.
-
Understand how to craft specialty classes and workshops through applying effective asana, structured sequencing, and honest dharma while touching on all 8-limbs of yoga.
-
Experience the evolution of your teaching as you are placed in real teaching environments in the wider community, allowing you to perfect your craft experientially and witness its impact.
-
Apply effective tactics for using yoga therapeutically. Gain skills to assess, adapt, and support individual injuries and specialized populations of students (injuries, trauma, prenatal, kids, etc).
-
Prepare yourself for a career full of balance and longevity as you explore the nuances of sustainable teaching and the business-side of teaching yoga.
-
This deep dive builds upon awareness and conceptualization of cultural dynamics within the yoga industry, and extends toward practical application building an inclusive and equitable practice context.

While instruction on assisting is included in the price of the 300, additional hands on experience labs through our Art of Assisting program is an extra weekend beyond those listed above & is available to be joined for an additional cost. If you are unable or unwilling to be in studio for this training, you may watch a virtual version of this weekend to make up those hours.
If you have any questions, call us at 617-566-YOGA or send an email to educationdirector@downunderyoga.com.
While we plan for this training to be in-person, there are a few virtual only sessions. We will adapt the format of the training to remain in compliance with state guidelines.
The 300 does not seek to turn you into a particular type or style of yoga teacher.
Rather it surrounds you with some of the country's best-known masters of different lineages, refining your delivery skills, intuition and command, body language, sequencing, imagery, humor, and compelling philosophical and anatomical language to a level of expertise.
With a faculty of subject matter experts that live their yoga and have created life-long teaching careers, we spend a full year studying the art of exceptional teaching until you can execute good teaching and the type of teaching that makes students change their schedules to make your class.
Designed for serious practitioners and yoga teachers, this groundbreaking program is a compelling way to distinguish yourself in the constantly evolving world of yoga, fitness, & wellness.
