200-hour Yoga Alliance Recognised Course
Led by Copper Crow
Monday - Saturday, February 6 - 25, 2023
TRANSFORM your life. INSPIRE others. BE a yoga teacher!
The Hot Yoga Teacher Training is a 200-hour Yoga Alliance registered course created by Copper Crow and based on his personal practice, years of study, and tenure teaching and managing studios for Bikram Yoga and Pure-Yoga Asia, where he served as Country Managing Teacher for over a decade.
‘Hot Yoga’ is a method of practice, consisting of three distinct styles: Classic-26+2, Static Hatha, and Dynamic Vinyasa Flow. This course outlines how to practice and teach each style, providing graduates with the necessary skills to offer more variety of classes and connect with a much wider audience of students. The course focus is ‘hot’, however all techniques are broken down and can be applied to teaching non-hot classes. HYTT provides the most essential skills necessary to step into a classroom upon graduation and confidently guide a 60-90 minute class, demonstrate proper alignment, make hands-on adjustments, and give clear verbal cues. Crow Yoga graduates are certified to teach: Hot 26, Hot Hatha, Hot Vinyasa, Hatha and Vinyasa yoga classes.
A full-time programme of intense practical training in asana, vinyasa, pranayama, mudras, yogic philosophy, esoteric sciences, cleansing processes, meditation, chanting, teaching skills, class sequencing, and anatomy and physiology.
Copper has led over 25 teacher trainings in Hot, Hatha, Vinyasa, and Universal Yoga over the last decade. He has offered the HYTT200 annually since 2009 with many graduates now teaching in major studios around the world, leading international workshops & retreats and running their own successful yoga studios. This training has proven time and again to produce life changing positive transformation.
CROW YOGA is a Yoga Alliance Registered School, RYS 200. Details at www.crowyoga.com. Yoga Alliance is an international governing board for yoga teaching professionals in the United States and globally. Graduates of this course are automatically eligible to register as a RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher) with Yoga Alliance.
