Here’s an introduction to Integrated Yoga Training that yoga teachers can share with their new market of providers.
Opportunity for feedback to describe the 30-hr & 100-hr trainings to integrate yoga techniques with other disciplines.
Dear friends and colleagues,
Yesterday, I provided information on a business opportunity for yoga teachers that we call Integrated Yoga Training. Please see that post if you’re interested in the background, a status update, an offer to participate in a test, and a discussion on the importance of research when communicating with potential clients.
In today’s post, I’m sharing a template for marketing Integrated Yoga Training so that you can:
Begin to have a more precise understanding of this opportunity.
Provide feedback on how we frame and discuss the training. (You always have complete freedom to customize any of our materials. You don’t need to describe this training as we do. However, any discussions we have, and improvements we make together now, will make us all more successful, saving everyone time to focus energy on meeting real-world needs.)
Here’s an introduction to Integrated Yoga Training that yoga teachers can share with potential clients among their new market of providers.
About Integrated Yoga Training
We’re excited to support you in building a comprehensive toolkit to serve those you work with.
Your interest in Integrated Yoga speaks volumes, reflecting both professional maturity and genuine respect for your clients’ needs. And it aligns with a broader evolution in care—one that prioritizes evidence over policy and adaptable solutions over one-size-fits-all prescriptions.
Providers who describe their work as multi-disciplinary, integrative, or holistic often do so to indicate a thoughtful use of any number of strategies, techniques, and therapies that meet the unique demands of each situation.
With this training, you’ll gain:
A professional and practical introduction to yoga — designed to prepare non-yoga teachers to confidently and safely integrate evidence-based yoga techniques into both personal practice and client work.
An ideal entry point for advancing your practice, deepening your use of yoga tools, and integrating yoga techniques alongside other modalities.
The skills to thoughtfully integrate yoga teachings and techniques with complementary disciplines such as holistic medicine, education, therapy, and coaching.
A toolbox of strategies and techniques informed by multiple styles of yoga with an emphasis on accessible practices that anyone can do to reduce pain and stress, enhance responsiveness to other modalities*, promote greater ease in the body, and improve quality of life.
An expanded knowledgebase, a richer set of professional resources, and a strengthened resume, as well as inspiration to incorporate effective, evidence-based tools in both your personal and professional life.
*The founder of Yoga Teacher Central gave this example for how yoga can enhance the impact from other disciplines: “I taught a weekly yoga class at a Seattle area high school for teens who had experienced trauma. The 35-minute class was held during lunchtime in a wing of the school dedicated to social services. After a few weeks of teaching the class, I was told that counselors were finding that their sessions with students were noticeably more productive and successful when they occurred after yoga. As a result, the social services administrator restructured the calendar so that whenever possible, counseling sessions occurred after yoga.”
