Therapeutic Yoga Teacher Training

Program Description

The Therapeutic Yoga Training Program, taught by Cheri Clampett and Arturo Peal, began in 1998 as a continuing education course to teach registered nurses, yoga teachers, doctors and other health care professionals how to integrate therapeutic yoga into their professions. Therapeutic Yoga is a carefully designed collection of restorative yoga, gentle yoga, breath work, guided meditation, and hands-on healing techniques.

Curriculum

Our 35-hour course is Yoga Alliance-certified and approved for Acupuncture (35 hours) and Nursing CEU hours (21.5 contact hours/CA). The course shows how to integrate various yoga-based healing modalities into a system well-suited for helping individuals recovering from injury or illness. These techniques help bring the various systems within the body into balance, and help produce a state of mind that is greatly conducive to the healing process. The techniques and information taught include:

• physiology of stress and relaxation
• restorative yoga poses and theory
• guidelines for sequencing yoga poses
• anatomy as it applies to yoga
• implications of scar tissue and adhesions
• gentle yoga
• breath work
• guided meditation
• hands-on adjustments
• hands-on healing techniques

The techniques are taught in a modular fashion so that the training participant can implement them as a complementary element to their current skill set. For nurses it may be incorporating breathing techniques with a patient. For physical therapists it may be working with patients with severe mobility restrictions. For yoga teachers, it may be adapting their class to those students recovering from an injury.
