Yoga Teacher Training
Deepen Your Personal Yoga Practice and Learn to Teach What You Know.
Teacher/Trainers: Kara Keating, ERYT and Carol Mason, ERYT, assisted by staff members of Movement Arts.
All of our staff study with Douglas Keller, an internationally recognized yoga teacher. Several of his books are used in this course.
Our style: Modern Hatha Yoga with elements of Flow and a strong emphasis on core activation and universal alignment principles. This course can work for yogis from most backgrounds and styles. Philosophy and psychology are included in every class, allowing the yogi to progress both personally and as a potential teacher of yoga.
Who takes the course: Yogis of varied backgrounds who are interested in holistic learning about the vast art and science of yoga. Some are wanting to become teachers and some are wanting to develop themselves, deepen in the yoga, and learn to become better communicators. Both kinds of yogis are welcome to take the course.
What makes this training different:
“Walking into Yoga Teacher Training at Movement Arts was, for me, a leap of faith. I wasn’t sure what I would find there. I didn’t know if I was ready, if I was “good enough,” if I would fit in. What I found was a group of yogis of all ages, from all walks of life, in varying stages of our life journeys – in short, what I found was a community. During our time together, that community grew to feel more like a family. We learned about our physical anatomy, how to find proper alignment in our yoga asanas, and how to safely teach others what we learned. And perhaps more profoundly, under Kara’s amazing guidance, we studied the ancient texts and delved into heartfelt discussions through which we gained insight not only into yoga history and tradition, but also into ourselves and into each other. It was an education, a journey, and a transformation. I am a Yoga Teacher.”

“I would like to share where my Yoga training has taken me. I started facilitating Buddhism Meditation Peer Recovery at the Seattle Area Support Group. My journey keeps opening new doors. I now live a mindful, non-attached, non-harming life. I wouldn’t change it for anything. I had searched for love but didn’t realize it was with me all along. My life began to change the first day I started teacher training. I can’t thank you enough Kara, for my yoga teacher training. It transformed my life. I didn’t realize at the time how my life was evolving at each and every moment.”
