Healing In Synergy 90 Day Program

Healing in Synergy addresses the core gaps in knowledge that many teachers feel following their 200 and 500-hour teacher training. If you are a teacher who wants a more therapeutic focus, and/or a health professional who wants to integrate yoga into their professional practice, this program will fill gaps, grow your skill and uplevel your results.

In this 12-week program, you will:

✓ Grow your confidence with applying anatomy and biomechanics therapeutically.
✓ Improve your ability to “see” compensatory movement and also describe what you see in a nurturing and supportive way so that change becomes easy for your clients/students.
✓ Understand what really gets in the way of helping clients heal and what you can do to connect with your clients to develop trusting, heart felt relationships.
✓ Build your client/student base sustainably, in a way that honours you, your schedule, and your deep desire for serving others – without burnout and a lot more ease.
