Ian delights in sharing the purifying pratices of Hatha Yoga: chanting, moving, breathing, relaxing. We emerge more comfortable in our skin. His training in Integral Yoga has been steady since 2001. His aim is on you feeling open and bright all day, then sleeping well all night.
Our Teacher Training program has been training teachers and changing lives for over twenty-five years. In San Francisco, we are lucky to have a gifted and experienced staff that has taught this training for years.
In fact, Integral Yoga was a founding member of the Yoga Alliance (the national organization of Yoga teachers).
