BecomeOne Foundational Yoga Training

200-Hour Teacher Training

JUNE 2023 (Applications now available)

This 200-Hour Functional Yoga Curriculum uniquely integrates the mind, body, and soul with the essential components of asana, anatomy, philosophy, and sequencing. 

 

What is Functional Yoga?

The Functional approach to Yoga enhances the student’s experience of their body and their practice. It is not a type of Yoga, rather an approach to Yoga making the pose useful and purposeful to the individual. 

In BecomeOne’s 200HR Functional Yoga training you will learn to TEACH PEOPLE NOT POSES by learning the universal biomechanics of the human body.

What is Biomechanics?

  • Bio = the study of Life

  • Mechanics = functional details or procedure of how something operates or works.

  • Biomechanics is the study of movement of a living body including how muscles, bones, tendons, and ligaments work together to produce movement.

We are studying the way human life moves before skeletal deviations or injury have occurred, so we can skillfully adapt the pose for each individual body.


BecomeOne’s 200HR FYTT is broken down in a 3 part process so you can

  • Teach functionally not aesthetically

  • Understand the principles of anatomy and body mechanics

  • Intentionally and intelligently sequence your classes

  • Learn the difference between placement cues, sustaining cues, and transitions and how to execute them clearly

  • Cultivate your voice both as an individual and a teacher.  

  • Build confidence through practice teaching

  • Begin to unpack Yoga history and philosophy
