Roxanne, the founder of Upward Dog Yoga, has been fortunate to share the teachings of yoga and lead teacher training and personal enrichment programs in Ottawa for over 10 years. As a student of yoga, she has been blessed to study with some of the world’s most dedicated and wise teachers and is excited to share their wisdom in this training, which is steeped in a lineage in which the teachings are passed from teacher to student. Roxanne is pleased to offer a Hatha Yoga Teacher Training Course that gives you a learning opportunity beyond that of teaching a yoga class. Anyone is welcome to join the course; all you need is the desire to learn about yourself, grow your practice, deepen your understanding of yoga, and have fun!
If you are ready to become a stronger, steadier, wiser, more compassionate version of yourself, our training is for you! In addition to learning how to sequence an intentional group class, you will develop a personal practice that is best suited to your individual needs. You will also apply the skills and knowledge gained to create classes tailored to the specific physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs of your students. We will teach you how to use asana, breathing techniques, meditation, mantra and Ayurveda, combined with the wisdom of yoga, to enrich your life and that of others. Through this training, you will be physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually renewed and awakened.
After completing this program, you will receive a 200-hour certificate that will allow you to move into the world, design classes and teach yoga to your heart’s desire. Whatever your purpose in taking our yoga teacher training program, it will deepen your practice and allow you to live a more connected, mindful and joyful life.
