2023 WildYoga Training: Fire Element

This powerful weekend will explore the Fire Element as it relates to all aspects of yoga. When playing with challenging yoga postures we need to ignite our core first.  To that end we will work with the abdomen, side bodies, mid-back and shoulder girdle in our yoga asana and anatomy sessions. Our physical practice will draw on the transformative qualities of Fire; including a focus on inversions, arm-balancing poses, and heating pranayamas. By joining this weekend you will learn to effectively tap into the qualities of Fire Element, and to verbally express these to your yoga students.

Friday through Sunday, students will move through daily yoga asana practice, meditation, pranayama, yoga philosophy and more! This weekend we will introduce the Fire Element and how it relates to Yoga through didactic presentations and experiential practice. Our goals for this powerful weekend are to introduce important philosophical concepts and embody them through practice.

Based at the cozy and rustic Yosemite Bug’s Yoga Studio (with allotments for outdoor adventures in Yosemite, weather permitting) we will be in community in Midpines, just west entrance to Yosemite National Park.

Participants are welcome to attend this program as a retreat, attend as continuing education hours with Yoga Alliance, or attend as the first module of our comprehensive 200-hour or advanced 300-hour WildYoga Teacher Training program.

Meals and lodging are not included in the program price due to overwhelming feedback to keep these costs separate. You can reserve accommodations onsite at the Yosemite Bug with a 10% discount if you mention this program at booking.
