Downtown Victoria Yoga Educational Center
Yoga Teacher Training Victoria BC
The MĀ Wellness and Yoga 200-hour yoga teacher training program in Victoria BC is an intensive journey into the heart of yoga practice. We provide an educational experience where students can fully immerse themselves into a yogic lifestyle.
This Yoga Alliance-certified course is designed to create a foundation for a personal ritual that honours the space where each student arrives. Participants are provided with daily meditation assignments as well as audio/video tools to support the creation of a daily ritual, outside of class time.
Everyone is worth being seen exactly as they are. Our approach is not to “fix” anyone, but rather allow each person to find authentic living in their own way. For this reason, we believe the most important thing that is brought to each training is the individual. There is no interest in molding students into an idea of a yoga teacher. Rather, we are invested in seeing how the practices land in each unique body and how that translates into teaching.
200 Hour Program
The MĀ Wellness and Yoga 200-hour yoga teacher training program is a perfect introduction into ALL facets of yoga. Our goal within this education is to provide the student with a strong commitment to their own daily practice and a respectful relationship with the world of yoga. Our main focus in training is to provide a strong foundation in practical anatomy and physiology, yoga history, yoga philosophy (raja yoga and introductory tantra), meditation techniques, pranayama techniques, vinyasa yoga asana, sound healing (gongs, crystal bowls, mantra), introduction to Ayurveda, trans inclusivity, decolonization of yoga, and trauma-informed teaching.
500 Hour Program
The world of yoga has many fascinating areas that can leave the practitioner awestruck at the idea of creation, personal dharma (purpose), and innate potential. The 500-hour certification program is perfect for students that already have a 200-hour foundation and are looking to develop in their own way. This program has two different pathways. Our Modular Program and our 4-week Intensive.
