Offered as an accredited 1,000-HR Yoga Therapist Training, Somatic Yoga Therapy honors the original teachings of yoga, sharing authentic Somatic knowledge that has its origins in Ayurveda, Thai Yoga Massage, and the yoga lineage of Krishnamacharya. Modern and western information is taught in parallel so that the teaching is shared in a safe, ethical, and trauma-informed manner. ***Mandorla Yoga Institute offers Somatic Yoga Therapist Training through hybrid learning.
