9-Day Teacher Training Module: Pranayama, Bandhas & Vinyasa
Yoga Alliance Approved Certification (70-hr Credit for NYI or Kripalu 500-hr Level)
At Kripalu Center Directed by Amba and Don Stapleton, Ph.D.

Note: Combine this training with Self-Awakening Yoga to fulfill equivalent of 100-hr Advanced Interdisciplinary Yoga Teacher Training in the NYI 500-hr certification.

Through the practice of Alternate Nostril breathing, Swami Kripalu came to let the wisdom of prana be the guiding light in his transformational journey. This 9-day training has been structured as a journey into the sacred space of one's own direct connection to prana. We revisit the multidimensional map of the Self, as revealed in the Koshas, in order to locate the funcional relationship between the intelligence of prana and our body, mind, emotions and spirit. Building upon Dirgha, Ujjayi, Kapalabhati, Bhastrika and Anuloma Viloma, we add the deepening layers of bandhas, mudras and mantras to enhance our experience and understanding of the practices.
