Event Details
We are excited to offer this course completely IN PERSON at our beautiful new workshop facility in Providence. We believe that there is nothing more beneficial than hands-on, practical experience. Our trainees will begin delivering postures and developing their teaching skills in the very first week.
Our schedule will consist of a series of weekend intensive modules and weekday evening sessions, making the program accessible to working professionals. Outside of our weekend intensive modules and evening sessions, trainees will be responsible for individual study, required and recommended reading, and maintaining their personal hot yoga practice (minimum of two 90-minute classes per week, on average.)
Our goal is to produce confident teachers who can integrate easily into any Original Hot Yoga studio and who are ready to begin teaching as soon as they receive their certificates!

Event Details
The Classical 84 Asana Advanced practice was shared with us by Bikram Choudhury and Emmy Cleaves. Bikram was trained by Shree Bishnu Charan Ghosh, founder of the Ghosh’s College of Physical Education in Calcutta, India. Bishni Ghosh trained at the Ranchi School for Boys, founded by his older brother, Pramahansa Yogananda, who you may know from the Self Realization Fellowship and/or as the writer of Autobiography of a Yogi. It is said that Yogananda practiced physical practice with his colleague Swami Sivananda Saraswati whose philosophies infuse the asana and meditation practices you may practice with us at the Siddhi School of Yoga. Sivananda’s teachings originate from Yogi Matsyendranath who is said to be the first human teacher of Hatha Yoga. His chief disciple, Gorakhnath, was said to be the guru to Yogi Swatmarama (even though they lived in different centuries), who was the author of the Hatha Yoga Pradipika. The Hatha Yoga Pradipika says that the main objective of Hath Yoga is to create balance inactivity, physical processes, mind, and energy to bring a call to awakening which is responsible for the evolution of human consciousness.
The classical 84 asana series has been an elusive practice to many. For years, we would flock to Bikram and Emmy to nerd out on this series. Since the fall of headquarters and the divide of the community, the wisdom of this practice has been scattered. Some schools continue to teach this series once a week, some have lost momentum altogether. This is why I believe a week straight of this practice is in order. Together, we will dive back into the ins and outs of this asana, ways to prepare for them and keep a sense of humor and gratitude for our efforts.
Over the course of five days, we will break down main asana groupings using different MFR practices, functional patterning, and asana during a rudimentary hour session. Then journey through the, often 2.5-hour asana practice.
For those practicing in Tucson in person, we will be at Yoga Oasis. This will be done in a warm room, not in a Bikram hot yoga room. The goal is not to get as dehydrated and warm as possible because of an outside source just to get close to a pose. The goal is to use the body to warm up and be sure it is ready to receive the shape. We want to feel different by the end of the five days, not haggard.

Friday, June 24th 5-7pm:
Gianna’s Master class covering the Bikram series include ways to better understand the bodily concepts embedded in the class. Rather than breaking down each pose, we break apart the class to see where there are similarities and differences to tackle our beloved practice with ease and make health and conscious adjustments.
Anatomy of Backbending
Saturday, June 25th 11am-1pm
Using traditional hatha techniques, functional mobility practices, wall work, and conditioning exercises, we will break down the ins and outs of backbending to help you find more understanding of the positions no matter what class you are in.
Subtle Body Class
Meditation, Pranayama, and Ayurvedic practice: Saturday, June 25th 3:30pm-5:30pm
Using the wisdom of Ayurveda, you will learn how to check your pulse, find breath exercises that can be practiced daily to enhance what is missing, and meditate together, to enliven and enrich our lives. Like attract like, meaning sometimes what we are most drawn to will continue creating an imbalance in the body. Learning to read your pulse is something that can be done on your own daily to make sure you are giving yourself what you need to live a balanced life of yoga.
Arm Balancing and Inversions
Sunday, June 26th 11am-1pm
This is an all level practice meant to get you excited about using your hands on the floor, building strength, and understanding your anatomy so lifting your feet off the floor does not seem so impossible. Not all arm-balanced handstands. You do not need to be a bulky strong person to get your hands down and feet up. There are great benefits for the pelvic floor, spine, upper body, and brain found in inversions. Trying them is enough to give you those benefits.

Event Details
Our values are inclusion, fairness, compassion, discipline, equality, mutual respect, love and peace. In this comprehensive OHYA accredited Teacher Training, we will train you to teach the original hot yoga sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises. It will be completed mostly in person and partly online with some guest lecturers from around the yoga world. Currently, we are planning for one intensive month, followed by 4 follow-up weekends with part-time posture clinics. Our dates for the teacher training are September 5- October 2nd, followed by October 8, 15, 22, 29 to cover injury and modifications. We will have limited spots and will do as many lectures and posture clinics outside in the grass while it is beautiful out! The goal of the teacher training is to set you on a lifelong path of self-discovery and allow you to teach the best yoga class you can. You will develop your knowledge of the postures, yoga philosophy, ethics and more. You will discover many things about yourself in the process. This is meant to be a rigorous training, not a yoga retreat, so please do keep that in mind. There is a transformational shift that happens to people during an intensive teacher training. As such, we will not be accepting part-time participants.
We are pleased to invite a number of lecturers from around the yoga world to lecture on the following units:
The week’s schedule for the intensive will look something like this:
Monday-Friday: 2 yoga classes plus 2-3 additional hours of yoga practice based posture clinics. There will be an additional 2-4 hours of teaching clinics and lecture.
Saturdays: 1 yoga class plus 3-4 hours of teaching posture clinic
The follow-up weekends will include units on corrections for injuries, pregnancy, limited range of motion and more.
The cost of the training is $5,000 and will include an OHYA teacher directory listing, a CPR/AED certification and 40+ hours of continued mentorship with Cat over at least 6 months. Your spot will be secured after paying a $1,000 non-refundable deposit.
While we will try our best to help you out, we cannot guarantee that teacher trainees will have teaching positions at our yoga school.
