100 hours – March – July 2015
The Loom Yoga Immersion and integration Intensive is a one hundred hour program covering alignment in asana, the basics of pranayama, meditation, mantra, and mudra, the foundations for personal ritual building, an overview of applied anatomy, and a introduction to the teachings of the some of the central texts of Yoga. We will also follow the mythical thread of Siva Nataraja, a tale central to numerous traditions, and meet a few key players in the vast body of Hindu Myth. Though text, story and image, we will examine Yoga as a way of access to and engagement with our intrinsic creative impulse.
This course is appropriate for serious students of any level, as well as teachers and would be teachers, under the premise that each participant brings to the group the richness that only their perspective, their urge to grow, and their way of being in the world can offer. Independent study projects may be assigned for further inquiry on a student by student basis, to be completed and shared at your discretion. This course stands alone as a deepening of your commitment to your personal growth and a refining of your unique gifts, and also serves as a prerequisite for both our basic and advanced yoga teacher training programs. For those on a teacher track, completion of assigned projects will required.

Level One Teacher Training – The Art of Listening and Responding 150 hours (will not be offered in 2015)
Teaching is, inherently, a conversation. As teachers we seek to respond to the needs and predilections of our students, while remaining steadily anchored in our personal truth. The process is always alive and shifting, and one of the most rewarding of human endeavors. While there are as many ways to yoga as there are yogis, a good teacher comes to the conversation with a solid foundation of self understanding as well as a facility with the subjects at hand.
This course includes an introduction to anatomy and applied anatomy, the basics of therapeutic alignment, pose observation and instruction, sequencing, pose improvement and assists, as well as a deepening look at the texts, myths and history of yoga as they may be applied to the practice os knowledge sharing, an examination of ethics in teaching and practice,an introduction to the business of yoga. the Loom Immersion and Integration Intensive is a prerequisite for this course*, and together these two courses meet and exceed the yoga alliance standards for 200 certification.
*In rare cases, this prerequisite may be waived. This would be by discretion of the Loom School, and the yoga alliance certification is not guaranteed with such a waiver in place
