Take one, or take all four

Modules 1 to 3 stand alone. Take one for continuing education (50 hours) or as a certificate in that module. Continuing education hours are provided by H3 Yoga. Gabe Yoga is a Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider (YACEP). Take all four, with module 4 on functional anatomy and business, for the 200-hour certificate.

The four modules

What each one teaches

1

BikYasa (Hot Flow)

The power of vocabulary: how to stand and teach with your voice rather than demonstration, how to use your body language, and how to speak to a room. About 50 hours.

2

YinYasa (Yin)

How ancient yoga connects to Chinese medical theory, applied to postures that act on the joints and connective tissue. It gives you a first working base in Western and Eastern anatomy. About 50 hours.

3

VinYasa (Flow)

How each person's body differs and how poses change for it. You build your own sequences and learn to share yoga history and philosophy. About 50 hours.

4

Business and Functional Anatomy

The last module pulls the first three together: how anatomy relates to poses and to the way you communicate them, how Yoga Alliance works, and how to work as a professional teacher.
