Educates - Inspires - Heals
Imogen's 250hr TEACHER TRAINING programme has been birthed from her deep love of the practices of yoga. Yoga has, in every way, transformed her life since she first stepped on the mat way back in 1998. Since then she has trained under some of the world's leading teachers and continues to be a student herself to ensure she stays informed and this is reflected in all her work. Her passion to share yoga never wanes and she believes this work in the world is more important now than ever before.
​
Life is a process of learning and unlearning. A journey of concealment and revelation. We all have a teacher inside of us and it is this embodied understanding of 'self' that will help you to discover THE TEACHER IN YOU.
This teacher training is for anyone who is a truth seeker. For anyone that is curious to expand their knowledge and develop a personal practice. It promises to create life long connections and deep personal growth.
Imogen will be supported by a faculty of incredible, knowledgeable and embodied teachers. Whether your intention with this training is to teach yoga or not - you will develop skills and confidence which will help you to transform both on and off the yoga mat.
PROGRAMME DETAILS
Why choose this training?
TIME
This is NOT a crash course…. becoming a yoga teacher takes time. Growth takes time… if you are wanting a quick fix training please look elsewhere. There will be 250 committed hours of training. There will be homework between weekends and time between modules to integrate, practice, revise and reflect.
SPACE
Yoga is a ritual practice that should take place in a safe environment, as should your learning. We will create a space with a small group of students (max of 16 people) so each participant can feel seen, heard and cared for.
PRACTICE
Yoga is a lifelong practice so we will make sure that you are practicing yoga and practicing teaching right from the start of our training. Each weekend you will be able to integrate the techniques and the knowledge that we have shared receiving constructive feedback from our teachers.
​
AUTHENTICITY
Yoga is for every body and teaching yoga is about creating spaces authentically for anyone that wants to learn from you. There will be time for you to inhabit your authentic self so you can feel empowered in this seat of teacher.
​
INQUIRY
We will question the way Yoga History, Philosophy and Ethics are taught in many other teacher trainings across the yoga world and we will do things differently. Inviting NEW THOUGHT, we will look at relational power dynamics and super structures within this contemporary world of yoga. This will help us understand the rich and varied ways in which yoga has interacted with society & our responsibility as yoga teachers within that.
