June 14 - 16: Restorative Yoga Teacher Training with Stephanie Keach - Asheville

Restorative Yoga Teacher Training with Stephanie Keach
June 14 - 16, 2013

“When the body is fully supported, in a soothing and trusting environment, it will eagerly let go, releasing tensions and toxins. Restorative Yoga is also know as the yoga of Not-Doing. Come slow down and soothe away any disease with a series of postures using blankets, pillows and other props to restore balance, harmony, and happiness. Leave the weekend feeling refreshed and ten years lighter!”

Come Deepen Your Practice and Learn How to Truly RELAX!! You don’t have to be a teacher, nor even desire to become a teacher to attend this course. Your Yoga practice will reach new heights as you become more grounded and peaceful through this ancient practice.

All Levels Welcome, teachers and all the rest! You will receive credit for the Asheville Yoga Center's 500 hr. program after attending this weekend. We no longer print paper certificates (saving trees and unnecessary for YA purposes). YA only wants documentation information from Asheville Yoga Center regarding completion of our 500hr YA program, not individual units. If you are wanting certificate of attendance, you will automatically receive an email after completion of each session, which is all YA requires for ceu's, not 500hr.
