EVOLUTION LEARNING INSTITUTE CORE PROGRAM
ACCESS 250-Hour Training
November 6th 2020 - may 16th 2021
ARE YOU READY TO
UNLEASH YOUR FULLEST POTENTIAL
The ACCESS 250-Hour core curriculum builds a solid understanding of the tools of yoga – asana, meditation, and self-inquiry. The goal is to give students a firm grasp of broad-based fundamentals as the foundation for developing awareness, harnessing their strengths, and becoming vehicles of transformation.
Through rigorous practice, persistent self-reflection and insightful discussion, ACCESS engages students in an in-depth experience and exploration of the Baptiste Yoga Methodology. Beyond cultivating the skills to teach and assist yoga, students practice teamwork, participate in personal leadership and self-discovery activities, and break down the asanas into their biological and mechanical form in an anatomy and physiology component written and created by Dr. Philomena Behmer.
ACCESS brings theory, practice, experience, and talent into focus, into action, offering the student an opportunity for deep learning and radical results.
This program is for you if:
- You have an interest in deepening and strengthening your current yoga practice.
- You are someone who has an interest in becoming a creator, leader, and change-maker in your life and others’.
- You are someone who has an interest in becoming a yoga instructor and learning the tools and skills to successfully lead others through a yoga practice.
