Past Tense 200-Hour Teacher Training

The Past Tense 200-Hr Teacher Training, led by Ellie Conrad (ERYT-500 and LMT) will guide participants to find their unique voice as a Yoga instructor while cultivating a deeply thoughtful relationship with Yoga in its many forms. Together, and with the support of the Past Tense teacher training team, we will explore anatomy through the lens of asana, functional movement and mobility, pranayama and the bandhas, meditation, and Yoga philosophy.

 FAQs

    • Asana
      Study the alignment and benefits of the foundational postures, use of props and hands-on assists, creating sequences.

    • Teaching
      Understand learning styles, your unique voice, unpack ethical considerations, study language inclusiveness, and cover common business practices for independent instructors.

    • Anatomy
      Deep dive into the study of the human body and how it moves through space. We make this fun using massage balls, foam rollers, functional mobility drills, and yoga practice.

    • Meditation + Breathwork
      Ditch the idea that you have to be a guru on a mountaintop. You will have time and space to develop the meditation and breathwork practice that you've been meaning to adopt.

    • History + Philosophy
      Gain a deeper understanding of this ancient (and not so ancient) practice and its practical implications to our modern lives.

    • Lifestyle
      An introduction to Ayurveda, the sister science of yoga, chakras, reflections exercises, and other self practices.
