Add a new dimension to your clients’ workouts with yoga

As yoga, breathwork and mindfulness grow in popularity, the transformative power of these practices should not be overlooked. By incorporating yoga into your sessions and focusing on flexibility, balance and mindfulness, you can help clients improve results, reduce the risk of injuries and enhance overall performance.

This course will show you how to integrate yoga, breath and mindfulness practices into your current repertoire. Learn the fundamentals of yoga including anatomy, poses and breathing techniques. In addition, develop skills to create a safe space for clients of all backgrounds by exploring trauma-informed yoga.

Led by Araceli De Leon, M.S., certified 500-hour registered yoga teacher, you’ll feel confident taking a client-focused approach to yoga and have invaluable tools to elevate your client experiences and enhance your offerings. Please note, while this course will provide information and helpful ways to include yoga in your scope of practice, it will not earn you credits through Yoga Alliance if you are a registered yoga teacher and it is not an accredited teacher training.

Upon completion, you will be able to:

  • Understand essential knowledge around yoga postures and breathing techniques and how it can optimize your clients’ physical and mental performance
  • Effectively add yoga practices into your current health and fitness offerings for clients of various backgrounds
  • Create safe and supportive environments for clients by utilizing mindful and neutral language
  • Add mindful movement and breathwork into your own practices

Reviews

This is an excellently taught and clear course. She really knows her stuff.

One of the better 1 hour courses I've taken as it integrates practical movement during the session. To the person who criticized the speaker for her pronounciation of a few words being "informal" or "unprofessional", I must say I disagree. I come from a country where English isn't our first language and she was completely clear and coherent in my opinion. The lesson was simple and I cannot wait to apply what I've learned. Bravo.

I am interested in learning more about yoga and this gave me a great introduction.

Very informative content. The course was presented well, it was interesting and informative.
