Advanced training does not mean advanced asana. Rather, we refine and delve deeper into the foundations learned in the 200 hour training. Only continued exploration, questioning and discussion will foster the growth of your practice and teaching. These 8 sessions encompass a range of topics that will help you connect to your practice and better see your students. As teachers and individuals, we must continually find ways to spark self-examination and evolution.

Join Elise in our candlelit studio for gentle restorative postures, a guided yoga nidra practice and the tones of the crystal sound bowls.

Yoga nidra aka “yogic sleep,” is a guided meditation practice that is done lying down in savasana, and is designed to bring the practitioner to a place between sleep and wakefulness.

Combined with the healing vibrations of the crystal sound bowls, this powerful, nervous system soothing practice may ease struggles with stress, insomnia, anxiety, chronic pain, burnout, overwhelm, exhaustion and more. You will leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated - one hour of yoga nidra is said to be equivalent to 3-4 hours of deep, restful sleep.

All levels welcome. Dress for comfort and bring additional cozy props like blankets, pillows and eye masks if you like!
