Purple Lotus Yoga is nationally recognized training and a Registered Yoga School with the Yoga Alliance at both the 200-hour and 500-hour level.

We offers aspiring teachers an opportunity to deepen their knowledge and practice through an integrative and interactive curriculum based on the principles of hatha yoga.  Hatha yoga is the most widely taught and practiced yoga system in America and is the physical discipline of classical yoga emphasizing postures, breathing, and meditation.  

Our teacher training program does not promote any one philosophy or style of yoga, however its roots trace back to the teachings of Sri T. Krishnamacharya, who taught Pattabhi Jois (Astanga yoga), BKS Iyengar (Iyengar yoga) and TKV Desikachar (Viniyoga). Purple Lotus Yoga teacher training reflects the lessons of respected yoga masters and combines this with the needs of the modern day practitioner. 

Both training levels include:

• Hatha yoga techniques--pranayama, asanas & meditation
• Philosophy, ethics & lifestyle
• Western anatomy & Eastern chakras
• Assisting & guiding students
• Original textbooks & workbooks to enhance learning
• Ongoing mentoring & coaching
• Yoga classes at Brick House Yoga

At the 200-hour level, the curriculum is designed to teach the mechanics and fundamentals of hatha yoga, mentoring the students to feel confident and comfortable teaching group yoga classes. At the 500-hour level, more time is spent in the above areas with additional work in coaching those who wish to be yogi-preneurs.

Purple Lotus Yoga proudly provides an avenue for students and teachers to experience personal transformation through group yoga classes, coaching sessions, mind-body lectures and special workshops. After nearly ten years and countless teachers trained, we know we're doing something right...we respect our students, treat them as intelligent adults, create quality training & education, and stay connected with so many long after training has ended.
