We will review a few basic poses and cover more complex poses such as inversions, shoulder stand, and back bends as well as new variations of savasana. We will also gain more knowledge on the physiology of relaxation and the importance of finding calm in our busy lives. Students will have the opportunity to practice poses and explore how to use props to fully support the body (including variations depending on health conditions) and leave the training with new many new poses to explore in their personal practice, in group classes as well as with individual students. This course is recommended for Yoga Teachers with a minimum of 1 year teaching experience with a basic understanding and practice of restorative yoga.

Testimonials:
Thank you so much for a beautiful weekend of restorative yoga training. I really appreciated how organized you were,
the pace you established throughout the weekend, and the way you held space for your students. I can imagine how much work went into
planningthat and how much energy it took to be so present for so many people all weekend, but it clearly demonstrated the gold standard
of restorative yoga and helped us understand through experience how nurturing it can be. Caitlyn, Ottawa
I just wanted to reach out and express my gratitude for your Hot Stone Restorative Training! It was such a beautiful offering and was honestly one of the most thoughtfully arranged trainings I have ever been too. From beginning to end your training was so well thought out and so perfectly timed! It was such a gift to be able to learn from your wisdom as part of a fun, light hearted but deeply meaningful day! I walked away feeling really empowered thanks to all of the deep experiential learning. Meghan, Ottawa
