The Golden Heart Yoga Hatha Yoga Teacher Training is a comprehensive program for students who wish to deepen their practice and further their understanding of Yoga. The in-depth study into the art and science of Yoga presents Yoga teachings from a multitude of perspectives in order to provide students with a rich and vast body of knowledge. Guest teachers throughout the year enrich the students' experience.

Gain insight into the heart of the Yoga teachings by studying such classical texts as the Yoga Sutras, the Bhagavad Gita and the Mahabharata. Listen to the stories and learn the symbolism associated with the deities after whom many poses are named. Study Ayurveda, the 'science of life' and learn the importance of creating a healthier lifestyle based on your constitution.

Analyze standing poses, backbends, forward bends, inversions, twists, and restoratives. Learn the mechanics of teaching, the art of skillful sequencing, hands-on adjusting, use of props and variations or modifications for special populations.

Explore anatomy from both the Eastern energetic and the Western anatomical perspectives. Emphasis is on practicing and teaching the asanas safely using bio-mechanical principles of alignment to enhance the flow of prana and sense of well-being.

The Hatha Yoga Teacher Training is designed to be flexible. It is intended for all students, not just students who wish to teach. The HYTT is divided into two tracks to enable students to get the most from their participation. Students can register for individual weekends or apply for a specific track.
